Open air museum recreating an Ulster town, farms, cottages and country crafts, mostly from the 19th century. (It surrounds Cultra Manor but that's only open for special events.) Allow a couple of hours; it's easily combined with the Transport Museum but they don't do combi tickets.
Vast collection, with a wing-back De Lorean and two train sheds full of old steam locomotives and buses.
It claims to be the oldest golf club in Ireland, founded in 1881, but it had two other locations before coming here in 1914, and the present course was laid out in 1925. It's a challenging course on the slopes above Belfast Lough. Blue tees are 6306 yards, par 70.
