Belle Isle Estate, Castle & Cottages
Review
Belle Isle Estate, Castle & Cottages is one of County Fermanagh’s most enchanting places to stay, celebrate and simply escape. Set on its own private island on Lough Erne, this remarkable estate feels wonderfully secluded, yet is perfectly placed for exploring Fermanagh, Sligo and Donegal. Once owned by the Duke of Abercorn, a cousin of Princess Diana, Belle Isle is now in the devoted care of the local Crawford family. Their investment, attention to detail and sympathetic restoration have preserved the character of the castle while creating a luxurious and welcoming experience. Weddings here are unforgettable, with the lake, woodland and historic surroundings giving couples the feeling that the entire island belongs to them. Visitors can also stay within the castle itself or choose one of the beautifully appointed courtyard cottages. Romantic, peaceful and rich in heritage, Belle Isle is a destination that captures the imagination from the moment you arrive.
