Belturbet
is situated on the river Erne in County Cavan on the border with Northern Ireland.
You can either
go northwards onto Lough Erne where Enniskillen is 4 hours away and onto the Lower
Lake at Belleek. There are spectacular coastlines and islands and several short
walks to scenic viewing points. Places of outstanding interest are the Marble
Arch Caves, Florencecourt, Castle Coole, Crom Estate and the Belleek Pottery.
Alternatively the
newly restored Shannon-Erne waterway along the gently winding Woodford river towards
Ballyconnell, Ballinamore, Keshcarrigan all traditional Irish villages
- and finally the Base at Carrick-on-Shannon, touching the pretty lakes of Coologe
and Derrycassan is a very relaxing way to spend your time.
Whichever way you
go, you can be sure of a fine Irish welcome in the Pubs and restaurants along
your chosen route! Take the time to relax in the comfortable and pleasant surroundings.
