Cultra
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cultra (pronounced /kəlˈtroʊ/; in Irish Cúl Trá) is a residential suburban area adjacent to Holywood, County Down, Northern Ireland, part of Greater Belfast. It is one of Northern Ireland's most affluent areas (hence the "Gold Coast" nickname for the district) benefitting as it does from attractive sea views and tree-lined avenues, house prices here can reach up to £5 million plus with relatively easy road and rail transport links to central Belfast.
