47. The Road to Enniskillen Town Views of Enniskillen, County Fermanagh Scenes from Northern Ireland
*
En route to Enniskillen from the Stranraer-Belfast ferry boat you pass through Clogher with its historic church up on the left. Its good uncomplicated run to the west of Ireland/Northern Ireland, whether the destination be Derry or Donegal. Dromard House Tamlaght, near Enniskillen, County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland is a good Bed and Breakfast place to stay. It is set in attractive woodland and farmland and after a warm friendly reception, Sharon Weir offers good value and welcoming hospitality including a full hearty Irish breakfast.
Enniskillen: We stayed at the very comfortable bed & breakfast establishment at Dromard House, Tamlaght just outside Enniskillen, Co. Fermanagh. We generally find the bed and breakfast establishments good north or south of the border.
Enniskillen: The house is set in lovely grounds and surrounding countryside.
Enniskillen: Tamlaght Bay is a short walk from dromard House. Enniskillen: Then off we go to explore Enniskillen, the principal town of County Fermanagh. We found the people really friendly and doing their best to put the 'troubles' behind them and the service good in all the places we eat in.
Enniskillen: The River Erne in the centre of Enniskillen, in fact most of the town is on an island between the channels of the River Erne.
Enniskillen: The main street in Enniskillen on a quiet Sunday morning.
Enniskillen: Wise words indeed for Northern Ireland and thankfully being put into practice since the Good Friday Agreement.
Enniskillen: The Ardhowen Theatre and cafe complex at Enniskillen is to the west of Enniskillen.
Enniskillen: The theatre is beautifully set on the banks of Lough Erne.
Enniskillen: There are pleasing views from the theatre cafe at Enniskillen in its picturesque riverside setting.
Enniskillen: Some of the well used moorings south of Broadmeadow on the River Erne connecting higher and lower Lough Erne near the Derrychara Bridge Link footbridge - in the distance.
