Galgorm Collection unveils £20m investment and new Roe Valley Resort brand in major transformation plans.


Roe Park Resort evolves into Roe Valley Resort as redevelopment works commence.

 

Galgorm Collection, Northern Ireland’s premier luxury hospitality group, has announced the start of a bold new era for one of its landmark properties, unveiling the first of four £5 million investment programmes in Roe Valley Resort.

 

This marks the start of an ambitious transformation plan to elevate the guest experience and redefine luxury at the newly-rebranded resort.

 

Nestled beside the breathtaking Roe Valley Country Park, Roe Valley Resort is set to become the ultimate destination for families and those seeking a destination for it all.

 

The first £5 million investment gets under way this year in two phases.

 

From June, younger guests can look forward to an array of thrilling new features that are packed with adventure. From a giant-sized Helter Skelter and soft play area to a brand-new kids' park, arcade, and thrilling pool slides, the resort is introducing next-level entertainment for younger visitors which can be accessed by both hotel residents and day visitors.

 

Culinary enthusiasts will also be in for a treat this June as Galgorm Collection brings its acclaimed Italian restaurant, Fratelli, to the North West for the first time. Designed as a welcoming space for both locals and resort guests, Fratelli will offer a warm, family-friendly atmosphere where children can enjoy making their own pizzas, adding a fun and interactive dining experience.

 

Later this year, in the second-phase investment, for those seeking even more indulgent relaxation, Roe Valley Resort will unveil a stunning new bar and adult-only spa, providing a tranquil escape for guests which will be open in time for Christmas.

 

Golf lovers can also anticipate enhancements to the award-winning PGA-standard 18-hole golf course later this year, reinforcing Roe Valley Resorts status as one of the island’s top golfing destinations. This exciting redevelopment follows Galgorm Collection’s landmark £28 million acquisition of Roe Valley Resort and Galgorm Castle Estate last November. The group has committed a multi- million-pound investment programme over the next five years to elevate both properties to new heights.

 

Welcoming the plans, Colin Johnston, Managing Director, Galgorm Collection, said:

“Roe Valley Resort has long been a cherished destination, known for its stunning setting, warm hospitality, and exceptional golf and spa experiences. This investment allows us to build on that legacy, enhancing the resort’s unique charm while introducing exciting new features that will appeal to loyal guests, the local community, and new visitors alike.” Our vision is to elevate Roe Valley Resort as one of Northern Ireland’s most sought-after destinations, offering even more for guests to experience and enjoy. We look forward to unveiling these exciting developments while ensuring the resort continues to provide the outstanding service and character it is known for.”

 

Steeped in history, Roe Valley Resort occupies a 150-acre estate that was once home to an 18th-century manor house and the first hydroelectric power station in Ireland.

 

While the original manor house has been meticulously restored, the resort today boasts 118 beautifully appointed bedrooms, an award-winning 18-hole parkland golf course, a driving range, spa, restaurant, stylish bar, and range of conference and banqueting spaces. Additionally, the resort offers three residences for guests seeking a more private retreat.

 

Perfectly positioned on the edge of Limavady town, Roe Valley Resort offers easy access to some of Northern Ireland’s most spectacular landscapes. Framed by the majestic Sperrin Mountains to the south and the dramatic Atlantic coastline to the north, the region boasts wide sandy beaches, rolling green valleys, and scenic hiking trails, making it an unparalleled escape for adventure and relaxation.

 

With Roe Valley Resort entering a thrilling new chapter, guests can expect an unparalleled blend of luxury, adventure, and relaxation like never before.

Galgorm invests £3 million to add new Forest Dens to luxury accommodation collection


Northern Ireland’s premiere luxury hotel, Galgorm has added a stunning new range of accommodation to its collection, with a £3 million investment.

Having already invested £60 million since 2010, Galgorm secured its position among the world’s premier tourism destinations in 2021 when it announced a further £30 million investment to expand and enhance its resort and spa facilities by 2027.

The new Forest Dens represent £3 million of that investment phase and are the first element of the ‘Forest Garden’ at Galgorm. The expansion to the Thermal Spa Village is due to follow in summer 2025, complete with forest walks, wood-fired sauna, hot tubs and a rope bridge connecting the Thermal Spa Village on both sides of the river.

 

Colin Johnston, Managing Director at Galgorm, stated:

“Our commitment to maintaining Galgorm’s standing as a world-class, award-winning tourism destination has driven us to invest and innovate continually over the last number of years. This latest £3 million investment is a testament to our dedication to offering premium and authentic experiences to our guests.

The introduction of the Forest Dens marks a unique addition to our accommodation portfolio, providing guests with an exceptional opportunity to immerse themselves in nature while enjoying the luxury and tranquillity that Galgorm is renowned for.

With further substantial investments on the horizon, guests can look forward to even more exciting developments, including the expansion of our Thermal Spa Village next summer.”
