This house 16 Burren Way is the childhood home of footballer George Best. The Best family moved here when George was two years old and it remained their family home until George's father passed away in 2008. George's room has been restored and recreated as to how it would have looked in the 1950s with items of memorabilia from his childhood and as he grew up. Dotted around the house are family portraits images from his football career and old school reports and letters kindly donated by the family. The house has been approved by NITB and is now available for rental.
Although some modernisation by the Best family has taken place over the years the house still retains many of the original features that would have been in the house when it was first built in 1949.
