Sweet thatched heritage 1900s Irish cottage on the shores of a lake, it even has its own traditional gypsy caravan so sleeps 5 in total. One of the best preserved traditional cottages in Fermanagh or Northern Ireland.
'We felt as if we had, literally, stepped back in time into a chocolate box thatched cottage, with a Romany caravan attached, all restored with attention to historical detail but infused with the on-trend fashion for all things vintage' Catherine Mack reviews for Irish Times.
'I don't see how anyone could fail to be charmed ... pushing open the red door is like stepping between the pages of a country interiors magazine.' Sally Shalam, reviewing for the Guardian.
'This is the ideal solution for the capricious: if you get tired of the pretty thatched cottage with its 1950s-style décor and fire, outside is a Romany caravan with a double bed, quilts, and a stove.' Chosen by the Independent in their 'Six Best Romantic Rentals'
Two amazing places to stay for the price of one here on beautiful Lough Erne in Fermanagh, Ireland. Enjoy this beautiful Irish gypsy caravan, or sleep in the cute traditional cottage next to it - you get both, and a third of an acre of private garden. Heaven for watersports fans, or just chilling out in a peaceful area. A great place for families, or, as it is such a romantic place we think it would make for a really special honeymoon. Stay year-round as the caravan has a stove and the cottage enjoys both under-floor heating with a retro multifuel fireplace. Easy walk (under half a mile) to a lovely, little-used shingle beach. This really is the perfect Irish gypsy caravan holiday - and with your own traditional Irish thatched cottage!
Considering a two-centre holiday? You may want to stay at one of our other Irish cottages en route. Or if driving over from the UK we have a number of beautiful properties near Fishguard in Wales.
