First Class Guide to Britain

Join Britain's post men and women as they take you on an exclusive video tour around Britain's best kept secrets.

First Class Guide to Northern Ireland

Let postman Robert Ramsey show you around some of Northern Ireland's hidden gems.

Robert is no ordinary postman. Not only has he been awarded an MBE for services to Royal Mail, he is also a stand up comic and a theatre director. Here he gives us an inside look at his beloved Northern Ireland.

When we think about Northern Ireland's coastline, the first thing we think of is its incredible World Heritage Site, the Giant's Causeway. While there's no denying this is a spectacular sight, Robert points out that Northern Ireland has miles upon miles of sparkling sandy beaches.

Here he takes us to one of his favourites, Downhill Beach. Just down the hill from Downhill Castle, where you can enjoy stunning views, take a dip in the sea and even take a train ride along length of the coast.

Robert is also a member of the Castlerock Golf club, which boasts an ever-changing 360-degree view from the 17th Tee. CS Lewis used to play here with his writer gang, the Ink Spots, and recently Michael Douglas flew in by helicopter to play a round - and you can too!
