36 comments

1. What are your thoughts on the usurper? The false prophet? The Continuity Grid?

2. Newcastle

3. Also Larne. Carnfunnock is class, the Jurassic coast, and a [great sense of humour](https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/ace/standard/976/cpsprodpb/7678/production/_86482303_larnecrown.jpg.webp).

4. It’s Derry and I’ll hear no more about it.

5. Ballycastle

6. It must be Cushendall?

7. Ballycastle 🍦 🌊

8. Derry/Londonderry/Seconderry

9. Newcastle.

   Sea, mountains, scenery.

10. Holywood. Best Medium Town 2007 and a sign to back it up!

    Seriously though, there’s are a lot of nice places you could happily spend a day, although their nearest town isn’t always the nicest…

    For this, I’d have to say Newcastle for scenery and just good memories and happy times there.

11. Ballycastle or one of the Cushens

12. Always loved Castlewellan.

13. Enniskillen

14. Hillsborough gets my vote

15. Torn between Ballycastle and Newcastle tbh, so I’ll just vote for the other comments that mention either

16. Portrush. Beautiful beeches and stunning views.

17. Rostrevor hands down

18. Ballycastle

19. Newcastle

20. Newcastle

21. I think we should vote for Larne again… Just to reflect duality of man.

22. Warrenpoint

23. Everyone’s hometown.

24. Gracehill – the only town in Northern Ireland with Unesco World Heritage site status.

25. Newcastle

26. Portstewart

27. Cushendall/Cushendun

28. Randalstown is gorgeous. The old viaduct over the river coming into town, Randalstown forest… gorgeous place.

29. I like Royal Hillsborough

30. Strabaneistan

31. Has to be Newcastle.

32. Moy

33. Newcastle

34. Cushendall or Cushendun

35. Royal Hillsborough

36. Think I’d agree with the Doire crew, it’s lovely. I’ll always have a soft spot for seaside towns, but I just like the focal points about it: bridges, train station, hilly narrow roads, views of Donegal, beauty of the Foyle and great hospitality.
