Reducing fire risk

We're asking all guests to please avoid using any woodburner or open fire in their accommodation at this time, as sparks escaping from the flue may lead to wildfire due to the current dry conditions in the surrounding land. Thank you for helping us do whatever we can to reduce the risk of wildfire.

Aspen is a traditional stone building, complete with wooden sash windows, and part of a converted farm building complex located on the tranquil Crom estate. The cottage boasts a cosy open fire and views over a small woodland area. You may even catch a glimpse of the deer that roam here.

You’ll be just a few hundred metres from the shores of the Lough Erne. There’s even a jetty so you can bring your own canoe and paddle along the river past its scattered islands. There are 2,000 acres of parkland for bracing walks, and you'll discover the old castle ruins and ancient yew trees. Crom is home to a variety of plants and animals, the diversity of habitats makes it an important conservation site. Look out for butterflies, red squirrels, otters and pine martens, and visit the new bird hide in a quiet corner of the estate.

Further afield, there are lots of great attractions for all the family to enjoy. Don’t miss the Belleek Pottery and Visitor Centre to see where the world famous pottery is made.
