The fourth bedroom is a compact single, perfect for a child or an extra guest.

Outside, the enclosed courtyard with a picnic bench provides a wonderful spot for alfresco dining or simply enjoying a morning coffee while soaking up the serene surroundings.

When you want to explore what's around, be sure to visit the Marble Arch Caves, which is one of Northern Ireland’s most popular tourist attractions, set in the picturesque foothills of Cuilcagh Mountain, just a short journey from the island town of Enniskillen in County Fermanagh.

Beneath the rolling green hills of Fermanagh lies a fascinating labyrinth of caves, sinkholes, and subterranean rivers.

At the heart of this network is the Marble Arch Caves, the most active river showcave in both Ireland and the UK, and a key site within the Cuilcagh Lakelands UNESCO Global Geopark.

You can enjoy guided cave tours, where dramatic passages and underground rivers reveal the wonders of this natural world.

Above ground, the surrounding landscape is equally captivating, with rivers, gorges, waterfalls, mountains, and ancient woodlands providing a stunning backdrop.

The Marble Arch Caves Visitor Centre also hosts guided walks, family activities, and events, making it an engaging destination for a lovely day out.

Beyond the caves, there are plenty of nearby attractions to discover.

The seaside town of Bundoran is within easy reach, offering traditional coastal charm, while the golden sands of Rossnowlagh Beach are perfect for a day by the sea, daring to dip your toes in the sea.

For more majestic views, the Lough Navar Viewpoint is just eight miles from Garrison, where sweeping panoramas take in Lower Lough Erne, Donegal Bay, and the Sperrin Mountains.

For a cultural experience, the Belleek Pottery Visitor Centre is located only five miles away, where you can explore the history and craftsmanship of this world-renowned pottery brand.

No matter what you choose, Old Police House is the perfect base for uncovering Northern Ireland's historic and natural marvels.
