Carrickfergus and the places nearby.
Carrickfergus is one of the oldest towns in Ulster, with a Norman castle standing on a rock at the water's edge and a marina along the seafront on Belfast Lough. Today it is largely a commuter town, with the railway and main road running into Belfast and housing ranging from terraces near the centre to estates up the hill. Commuters want to book in the evening without playing phone tag, so an online quote form helps, as does covering Greenisland and Whitehead.
Inside Mid and East Antrim, the closest place is Larne (10 miles). Elsewhere in County Antrim: Newtownabbey (5 miles), Belfast (9 miles), Antrim (16 miles) and Lisburn (17 miles). Just over the council boundary, Holywood (5 miles), Bangor, County Down (7 miles) and Newtownards (9 miles) are close by. A list of the places you really serve is more useful to a customer than “and surrounding areas”.
