Hillsborough —County Down
The village of Hillsborough, or more specifically Hillsborough Castle itself, is used as a temporary home to royalty and the British Prime Minister during official visits to the North. Hillsborough has featured prominently in the peace process during the last few years as the venue for many important talks, and it's an interesting village with lots of pleasant 18th-century buildings. Hillsborough hosts an Oyster Festival each September, but its charming streets are wonderful to wander through at any time of the year.
