Fabulous Fermanagh Lakelands

Day 1

A morning departure as we travel North to Scotch corner and then Carlisle before heading along the Dumfries and Galloway coast to our overnight stay at the North West Castle hotel

Day 2

After breakfast in the hotel we make our way to the port of Cairnryan and the late morning sailing to Belfast. From here we continue onto Enniskillen and our hotel the Killyhevlin. Dinner in the hotel.

Day 3

This morning we head out to visit to Florence Court, a beautiful 18th century Georgian house set in lovely grounds amidst majestic countryside in West Fermanagh. Afternoon at leisure in Enniskillen. Dinner in the hotel.

Day 4

Today we visit the fascinating Ulster American Folk Park. We step back in time to follow in the footsteps of thousands of brave migrants who set sail for the New World in the 18th and 19th centuries. We first experience rural Ulster's bustling street and welcoming farmhouses, before boarding the full-scale Brig Union emigrant ship and discovering the cramped quarters where hundreds lived during their 12-week Atlantic crossing. We emerge in the New World, where we get a taste of life on the American frontier. Dinner in the hotel

This morning we make our way to Belleek Pottery where we enjoy a guided tour of Ireland's oldest pottery producer. We have free time in Enniskillen for lunch before our afternoon scenic cruise on tranquil Lough Erne on board the Lady of the Lake. Final dinner at the hotel.

Day 6

We leave our hosts in Enniskillen after breakfast and head back to Belfast for the lunchtime sailing to Cairnryan and then home, arriving back late evening.
