This cottage is part of a 470-acre estate inhabited since the 12th century. This cottage dates back to 1680 and was part of a renovation that saw the estate converted into a working farm and self-catering accommodation. The historic charm has been retained – we love the drawing room, which boasts floor-to-ceiling windows and a cosy fireplace. It also looks out over the sunken garden. The setting is idyllic, on the northern tip of Upper Lough Erne – there are eight islands to explore. There’s also a local pub within a mile.

About United Kingdom
Away from the bright lights and bustling marketplaces of London, the English countryside is home to chocolate box villages, stately homes straight out of period dramas and wild hinterland in the North where travel is by vintage steam train or in hiking boots. It’s no secret that the UK has seen its fair share of medieval battles and border skirmishes across its four nations. Wales is dotted with castles from...
