Dear visitor, welcome to Fermanagh
Fermanagh is the true heartland of Ulster and Enniskillen, the gateway to
the rest of Ireland. Once you come over the Fermanagh border you will
understand why so many people love our County. Immediately you are struck
by the greenness of the countryside, but itīs the stillness and silence
on this spectacular landscape that you will never forget. No wonder that
many city dwellers return to the Lakeland paradise year alter year "to
get away from it all" |

Fermanagh is situated in the South West of Northem Ireland is just 1 hours 30 mins from Belfast and 2 hours from Dublin. It is renowned for its beautiful landscape, which is characterised by its Lakes. Often referred to as the Lake District of Northem Ireland, home to the longest navigable waterway in Europe, which has made it one of the premier destinations for a cruising holiday as well as a haven for anglers and water sport enthusiasts. But not forgetting those who simply want to enjoy the stunning views or take a sit back and relax on board one of our boat trips.
Forget the demands of modern living as you allow yourself the time to explore
the countryside by foot, car, and bike or even by boat! And as you travel around

"the man who made time, made plenty of
it", so why hurry? Our ancient monuments have withstood the travails
of time and are a constant reminder of the rich history and culture imbedded
