Just wanted to flag the welcome and ease of flying into Newtownards to tour the stunning N.Ireland coast. Airport manager Rodney could not have been more helpful with fuel and hangarage upon arrival (it was due to blow a couple of nights). Car hire from Sixt is 300 yds away at Kia, Portaferry Rd. and there are innumerable Air B&B's all round Co Antrim and Ards. Stayed 5 days a couple of weeks ago, and didn't have time for Titanic tour etc. We'll be back.
All info on Ulster Flying Club website.

We stopped in Nards on the way to Scotland this year. It was as good as @johnp suggests. We hired a car from Sixt and stayed over night. Very chilled. It was a lovely arrival up Strangford Loch. We hired a car and ended up eating fish and chips that evening watching Dolphins playing in the current at the bottom end of the loch.
