Bellisle Castle was originally built in 1780 by fellow who became the Earl of Ross; it was refurbished & 'spruced up' to a Manorial House in mid 1800's & 5 storey tower & 'stable wing' added onto it. It too was a centre of education & culture. 'The Annals of Ulster' written there in 1500's.
Today it has a Cookery School, Equestrian Centre & self-accommodation.
Lovely gardens & woods - even a holly tree with red berries!
