  • Well-established and popular holiday park on the banks of Lough Erne
  • Part of a 230-acre country park 20 minutes' drive from Enniskillen
  • Fishing, watersports, bike hire, play area, restaurant and bar on site
Now here’s a place that's got a very well-established reputation – and when a business has been thriving since 1966, you just know that it must be doing things rather well. That’s certainly the case with Castle Archdale Caravan Park, which has been operating in this lovely spot on the shores of Lower Lough Erne for well over half a century. Now owned by the Mahon family for more than 28 years, it’s grown to be a well-equipped and much-loved Co. Fermanagh holiday park for all ages. The setting gives it a head start, of course – it’s surrounded by the 230 acres of Castle Archdale Country Park, once a World War II airbase and now a protected park owned by DAERA. Enniskillen is a 20-minute drive away along the lakeshore for shops and other town amenities when you need them. And then there are all the facilities, covering both practicalities and leisure time. Guests here have access to watersports and fishing on the lake, bike hire for exploring the park, and a play area and various activities to keep the kids amused. A shop, picnic areas and barbecue areas are all on hand for self-catering times, and there's also a restaurant, chip shop and bar for easy eats and drinks (seasonal opening hours apply). On the practical front, you’ll also have access to things like a launderette, a wifi connection, gas cylinder exchange service and chemical toilet disposal.

What customers say

This campsite is praised for its spotless facilities, including clean, warm showers and toilets, often with underfloor heating. Guests highlight the friendly and helpful staff, spacious pitches, and beautiful surroundings with excellent walking opportunities. On-site amenities like the bar, restaurant, and shop are well-regarded. Some guests found certain pitches, particularly hard standings, to be less desirable, and WiFi connectivity was occasionally reported as weak. Issues with noise and the availability of some facilities during quieter periods were also noted, though management has addressed some concerns, such as the installation of grey water disposal.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch

Liked The grass pitches and clean warm showers and toilets. Very peaceful.

Disliked Being put in a horrid concrete ouch between what appear ref to be staff caravans when the rest of the site was virtually empty. In fairness the lady on reception gave us a grass alternative. Whatever you do do not book a hard standing on this site. They’re horrible.
Nothing was open despite the pitch up platform indicating the contrary

Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch

Liked Fully serviced pitches. Good for dog walks.

Disliked Very few people at this time of year so why put everyone together and not spread us out. We were stuck next to a really noisy family the whole weekend. The electric kept tripping out if you put your kettle and heating on at the same time. No staff at weekends.
