About Portglenone

Portglenone faces the smaller village of Glenone across the Bann, and its council marina lies right in the centre, beside the bridge built in 1846. Mid and East Antrim Borough Council runs 35 serviced pontoon berths, an accessible berth with a hoist, a slipway, canoe steps and a pump-out; the marina building has showers, toilets and a laundry. Visitors pay £3.90 per metre a night (2026–27 rates). The Wild Duck Inn serves country cooking a few steps away, Blend & Brew does coffee, and Golden Hill Chinese is over the bridge. The 5.8 km Fisherman's Walk follows the river, and Portglenone Forest, an ancient woodland carpeted with bluebells in spring, begins half a mile from the village. Portglenone House, a Georgian mansion of about 1808, is now Our Lady of Bethlehem Abbey, a Cistercian monastery.
