How to find Fortwilliam Country House Bed and Breakfast.
We only a few miles from Hillsborough on the Ballynahinch Road, near Annahilt, and close to the Motorway network at Sprucefield and Lisburn and only a short hop for Belfast.
From the Motorway
(M2)
Follow the M2 into Belfast. Check
the overhead Gantry signs for the 'Westlink'/M1
Motorway/Dublin/Newry and get into the correct
lane (2nd from left). Travel along the west link
going straight through two large roundabout type
junctions. immediately after the second roundabout
you will join the M1 Motorway. Follow this until
you reach junction 7 (11miles); for Hillsborough/
Sprucefield/Newry/Dublin at which time you should
leave the motorway. Still following those signs,
join the A1 dual carriageway and follow it for
two miles until you reach the Hillsborough roundabout
at the top of the hill. Use the left filter lane
just before the roundabout and continue a short
distance until you enter Hillsborough village.
Once you reach the old part of the village which
is easily identifiable by the architecture and
about 1 mile from the hillsborough roundabout,
keep an eye to your left for the road to Annahilt
and Ballynahinch. (If you are unsure in anyway
the staff at any of the local shops will happily
direct you to Ballynahinch Road).
From The Republic of Ireland:
Continue to travel north from
Newry on the A1 Dual Carriageway. You will pass
turn-offs for Banbridge, Dromara and Dromore.
Continue until you reach the first roundabout
(Hillsborough roundabout) and turn right. This
road will lead you back into the village of Hillsborough
from where you should follow our instructions
below.
From Hillsborough:
At the bottom of the Main Street
in Hillsborough, you will see that there is a
road junction. with signposting for Annahilt and
Ballynahinch. Turn off Main Street, into Ballynahinch
Street. Follow this road for 3.5 miles (5.6km)
and after a right hand corner, which Fortwilliam
overlooks, look out for sign from the Northern
Ireland Tourist Board. This is our entrance.
If you find that you are unable
