It wasn’t open but took the opportunity to dander around the area. I haven’t been in it since it wax refurbished but boy was she a mess before that. There are a few parking spaces available and the Wee Tram also operates to the dock. Caroline is an amazing look ship that thankfully has survived WW1, being a restaurant, left to rot and part of the naval reserve until she was decommissioned. So much history around this area. Worth the visit.
A magnificent ship with an amazing history. What a gem to have berthed in Belfast. Although no tours were available when I visited, a walk around the ship was rewarding in its own right. It is definitely worth visiting if you are in Belfast.
This review is for Billy from the maintenance / renovation team, who was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. Thank you Billy! Ps great to see the Ukrainian flag flying from the ship too.
Great way to spend a few hours . See what life would have been like on a ww1 ship. PLUS annoy the staff by trying out some sailor talk like ‘ avast ye me hearties and hoist the spinnaker ect. Honestly though it’s a good day out. My late fathers eldest brother served on her sister ship the CURACOA during ww2 so was nice to get some perspective of life at sea.
We enjoyed this much more than we expected. I knew nothing about it before our visit and left with a wealth of knowledge! Even inspired the kids to research the battle of Jutland! We had a guide with a passion for his subject! He was very attentive and really brought it all to life! Very interesting ship! Can't believe it was over 100 years old!
Great experience, fascinating to be on board this vessel especially when you think what it survived during the Battle of Jutland, the film that shows when you first board is well worth watching but the ship itself is very atmospheric, almost spooky in a way. Tip: make sure you get there in time to see everything on board, especially the engine room and upper deck, you won't regret it. PS: when the staff warn you to watch out for low beams, they aren't kidding...
Took the kids today. There were only seven other visitors during our afternoon trip. Don't know why it was very good. Kids enjoyed it and so did I. The Web site wouldn't let you purchase tickets due to an error but there was no queue anyway. Odd to think there were 28 of these light cruisers at the Battle of Jutland.
Great little piece of history. Quite an eerie experience on the day we went. Not that many people on the ship. As we walked around they had noises pumping out of the speakers that was representative of the room you were in. So in the mess hall you could hear clanging pots and pans. When there is no one else around it was quite a spooky surreal feeling. Nice to see what life would have been like for the crew.
Fantastic day, really interesting and friendly staff. There’s not guided tour which is unfortunate but other than that it really good. From what I saw there was really good wheelchair access too. Much better than the titanic museum.
The ship was larger than I envisaged. Above decks guns and shells impressive to see up close...beneath decks a snapshot of life onboard for the crew..from the captain and officers quarters, dining area table set for a meal and a gramaphone like my grandmother's with records for entertainment, sick bay to the mess were the crew ate their meals and slept in overhead hammocks. Quite detailed in places. The noise of the engines was loud and the smell of the engine room realistic.. My audio equipment was faulty so missed a lot of the commentary in these areas but managed. Unfortunately the rain prohibited going up to the upper part of the ship due to unsafe slippery surfaces. Small exhibition off the reception were I bought my tickets gave an account of the history of the ship, its journeys/battles, crew members etc. set the tone nicely to the historical background. Overall a very interesting experience...a worthwhile visit...even on a wet day...
