County Tyrone Bed and Breakfast Accommodation
Click here to see all B&B's in Tyrone
Tyrone is the largest county in Northern Ireland and is known for its prehistoric sites, forest parks, the extensive Sperrin Mountains (which are a major attraction for hill walkers, cyclists and ornithologists) and its connection to Lough Neagh.
The county town of Omagh is a great base from which to explore the surrounding areas such as the picturesque Gortin Glen while Ulster American Folk Park nearby explains the province’s unique contribution to the ‘New World’. Because it is the most central of the six counties of Northern Ireland, it also is the most convenient to reach all the others as well as crossing the border. Dungannon is just 30mins drive from Belfast and 15mins from Armagh.
History and Heritage
Tyrone is rather proud of its heritage, and particularly its very close links with America. At least three early US 
Presidents and frontiersman Davy Crockett are descended from Tyrone emigrants and the details are among the exhibits at the Ulster American Folk Park. That probably helps to explain why so many American visitors gravitate towards Tyrone when they come to Ireland.
Of even older vintage is the 10th century Ardboe Cross, the Iron Age fort at Tullyhogue, and the Beaghmore Stone Circles. There are also several heritage centres in the county worth seeing as well as the history park at Gortin.
Sites to see
Ulster American Folk Park, Sperrin Heritage Centre, Ulster History Park, Cornmill Heritage Centre, Beaghmore 
Stone Circles, An Creagan Visitor Centre, Wellbrook Beetling Mill, Tyrone Crystal.
Sports and Leisure
Visitors can fish for trout in the tributaries of the River Foyle as well as angling on Lough Neagh which is also popular with sailors and boating fans.
On shore, golf, cricket, bowling and horse-riding are popular activities.
A great way to discover Tyrone is on foot and the Central Sperrins Way is a new 25-mile waymarked trail that begins and ends near Plumbridge.
The Sperrin Mountains cover much of Tyrone and offer four sign posted scenic routes.
The Ulster Way takes an even longer and tougher route and is not for the fainthearted.
Eat, Drink and Stay
Good food can be tasted at such establishments as Hawthorn House, Oasis Bistro, Pink Elephant and Grant’s (Omagh), Viscounts (Dungannon), The Loft @ The Linen Green (Moygashel), and Oysters (Strabane).
For those seeking a tipple, the Coach Inn, Sally O’Brien’s, Devlin’s and Bogan’s (Omagh), Castle Inn, Harry’s Bar and Gallen’s (Castlederg), The Rathmore and Trident Inn (Clogher), and Martha’s Vineyard (Strabane) are considered locally as worthy of a visit.
B&B accommodation is in plentiful supply in Tyrone and are well spread out to satisfy the demand to visit diverse attractions across such a large county.
