THE TEAM
Owned by the Thom family, the Royal is a quality hotel situated in the centre of Cookstown, in the heart of Mid Ulster. This is a hotel perfectly suited to weddings or indeed just a few days rest and relaxation to get away from it all.
Set an 11-minute walk from the centre of Cookstown, this laid-back hotel lies 5 miles from both Drum Manor Forest Park and Springhill House.
