Drumhoney Holiday Park

Drumhoney is tucked in the middle of Fermanagh’s main tourist areas, with a whopping amount of activities within easy reach, from shopping to golf to more angling. The fishing village of Kesh is a few miles away on the Kesh River, and has the award-winning Lough Erne Hotel for tasty treats, golf and taking it easy at the Thai spa. The popular fishing spot Muckross Quay and entry point to Lough Erne is just outside the village for ambitious anglers: trout of over 19lbs and pike of almost 40lb have been landed here, so pack your camera along with your rod. The village of Irvinestown is also nearby – catch the famous Lady of the Lake Festival if you’re visiting in July, get a bite to eat at Mahon’s Hotel or the many local restaurants, mosey along to the market or have a canter at the Necarne Castle Equestrian School just outside the village. Irvinestown’s also within reach of the Castle Archdale Country Park on the shores of Lower Lough Erne, with lakeside and woodland walking and cycling paths, gardens, a red deer enclosure, butterfly garden and boating marina. Pettigo, on the Co Fermanagh border, has over fifty fishing lakes and is a gateway to exploring the gorgeous sights of Donegal. For a day trip, the county town of Enniskillen is a short distance away: alongside some smart shops and restaurants, there’s the Lakeland Forum sports centre for energetic types, the Erneside Shopping Centre for wallet lightening, and the Ardhowen Theatre for dramatic and comedic souls. Those of a literary bent can ponder on the importance of being earnest or wait for Godot in the town: both Oscar Wilde and Samuel Beckett were educated at Enniskillen’s Portora Royal School.
