About Woodford Cottage

Woodford is one of a collection of traditional stone farm buildings located on the Crom estate that now function as cosy holiday homes. This pretty cottage boasts stunning views over a small woodland and a welcoming open fire. 

Set on one of Ireland’s best conservation sites, it’s impossible not to be blown away by the natural beauty that surrounds you. Head out early to discover some of the creatures that inhabit the acres of countryside around the cottage. Or explore the area by canoe; you can hire one here and set off along the Lough Erne, through its narrow channels and scattered islands. 

Head a little further afield for a day out with a difference. Enjoy a guided tour through the Marble Arch Caves Geopark, a fascinating underground adventure for all the family.
