A 20min drive along the winding country roads south of the city will lead you to this family-run gem of a hotel. The ensuite bedrooms have everything you'd expect, but the real lure for visitors is the hotel's exceptional leisure facilities. Popular with wedding groups and business guests, La Mon is also the hotel of choice for the Ulster Rugby team and its visiting opponents... check out the kaleidoscope of signed shirts lining the hotel's walls. The Shakespeare Restaurant and Bistro Lounge serve a tempting array of nosh but it's the Sunday carvery that has locals coming back for more.
