This imposing building  was originally built as a Bishop’s palace for the Bishops of Down, so there is a great  sense of history as well as elegance. It stands on 12 acres of beautiful secluded gardens and woodland. Palatial surroundings, fine antiques and the highest level of personal service combine to give the Culloden a unique air of elegance. On the wooded slopes of the Holywood Hills, 5 miles from Belfast city center and overlooking Belfast Lough and the County Antrim Coastline this is Northern Ireland's most prestigious 5-star hotel.
       In the fall and winter the lounge with it’s huge fireplace is the meeting place of choice, to curl up with a book or enjoy the company of others over a cup of tea by day or a glass of wine by night.
      Each guest room is exquisitely decorated and tastefully furnished to provide a true feeling of calm and relaxation. Many of the rooms have wonderful views over the hotel gardens and down towards Belfast Lough. There are 79 exquisite bedrooms and suites. Rooms are spacious, homey and very well appointed, including an electrical coffee pot for the making of  coffee and tea, which are also supplied.  
     There are two excellent restaurants – one formal with white glove service and a glorious view of the picture book grounds and the sea features the renowned and varied  cuisine of Chef Paul McKnight. The other restaurant is informal with a casual menu, which is a fun choice for lunch or  a casual dinner when you don’t feel like dressing.
     Golfers call this a “paradise.” With the three Royal courses and two Championship venues ranked among the top ten within the British Isles in close vicinity the Culloden has it all. Celebrities of stage and screen and top pros are to be seen trodding the greens. Golfing enthusiasts can enjoy privilged tee-off times at Royal Belfast Golf Club.
