About
Why not take the opportunity to visit Crom Estate, located on the beautiful shores of Lough Erne. Explore 10.5km of trails on foot or bike. Bike hire is available from the Visitor Centre or bring your own. If you’re feeling more adventurous why not hire a boat or canoe and enjoy the views from the lough. Kids will love the new playground and the Little Orchard Tearoom is open for refreshments (cash only).
As a conservation charity, we play a huge role in the protection and preservation of coast, countryside, mansions and gardens in Northern Ireland. We love how European Heritage Open Days help encourage more people to enjoy our rich and varied historic environment. Spending the day at one of our special places is the perfect way to uncover your local history and embark on a journey of cultural discovery. You’ll see what our wonderful conservation work achieves and hopefully be inspired to become a valued member.
The 2,000 acres of parkland at Crom lie beside the shores of Upper Lough Erne, an ancient landscape which includes the ruins of the old castle. Home to a variety of plants and animals, the diversity of habitats makes Crom an important conservation site. The old castle at Crom was built in the early 17th century by a Scottish planter, Michael Balfour. The castle survived two sieges by the Jacobites in 1689, but accidentally burnt down in 1764. In the 19th century additional walls and towers were added to the ruins of the old castle for romantic effect. Today, the ruins are a secluded monument. Close to the castle ruins are Crom’s famous Yew Trees.
Crom and Lough Erne itself, are celebrated for its peace, tranquillity, beauty and above all its wildlife.
