Fermanagh Lodge's Favourite: Marble Arch Caves ๐ฟโ๐
We recently attended a lovely event in the Marble Arch Caves where Caritas, a local choir from Enniskillen, provided music in the Caves - check out the video clip ๐ฒ
Located just 20 minutes drive from our self catering accommodation, the Marble Arch Caves are a unique show cave where you can head underground to hear about the unique geology of the Fermanagh landscape, and take a boat trip underground!
Open all year round, the Marble Arch Caves are a part of the @Cuilcagh Lakelands Geopark and a great visit for all the family, especially in the Autumn time. There is a cafรฉ and gift shop too, and they also offer above-ground experiences and activities.
Why not book a stay to Fermanagh Lodges and go and visit the Marble Arch Caves as part of your stay? Contact [email protected] to make an enquiry, or drop us a message!
