Once more commonly known as Londonderry, Derry is Northern Ireland's second largest city and became the UK's first 'City of Culture' in 2013.
Founded by St Columba, the missionary who is credited with spreading Christianity into Scotland, Derry – also known as Londonderry – is the second largest city in Northern Ireland. Travellers using our serviced apartments in Derry will be staying in the UK’s first ‘City of Culture’, an award it officially gained in 2013.
Known historically for factory-based shirt making – for which it received a mention in Das Kapital by Karl Marx – Derry has, in recent years, attracted investment from digital industries, notably American data storage company Seagate, who have a factory there. The city is also the main shopping destination in the northwest of the country.
Those using our Derry serviced apartments can link to mainland UK through the City of Derry Airport. The road network makes use of Ireland’s longest bridge, Foyle Bridge, over the River Foyle. The A2 runs through the city and passes the main railway station. Our serviced apartments lie not far from the River Foyle, offering excellent access to the Derry’s thriving nightlife. These apartments come with excellent facilities to provide short or long stay customers with a wonderfully flexible space while they are there.
