Belturbet

Welcome to Belturbet. From our base at Belturbet on the shores of the River Erne you can explore the marvellous labyrinth of waters and islands of the Upper Lough Erne and further afield, Lower Lough Erne. These clear blue waters are an angler’s paradise and there are numerous moorings to indulge your pleasure or to simply relax and soak up the peace and tranquillity of these magical surroundings.
