About this property

With a homely décor and a Smart TV, along with stunning views and adapted access and a wet room for wheelchair users and those with limited mobility, this property is ideal for those who want to feel thoroughly immersed in the farmland scenery, while still enjoying home comforts. On arrival, ramp access invites you in, where you will find a traditional farmhouse kitchen fit with a dining table where you can plan your days out and an oil Stanley range, giving the property a true home-from-home feel. From here, make your way to the sitting room and snuggle up in front of the electric fire while you watch a film on the Smart TV. Make your way to the ground-floor bedroom, a spacious room with a king-size, next door to a wet room with a shower seat, making the ground-floor accessible and the home ideal for a multi-generational family. Completing the ground floor is another shower room where you can freshen up after a day of wandering the picture-perfect countryside. Upstairs, three more bedrooms rest, including two more king-size rooms, one of which has plenty of storage and a dressing table area, and a twin, which is ideal for children or friends sharing. Outside, admire the views as you eat lunch out on the patio, or perhaps savour your morning coffee in the crisp morning air at the picnic table. Venture outside of the farmhouse with a trip to the nearby Hanging Rock, cascading waters just a short drive from the house, or to Marble Arch Caves, where you travel the UNESCO World Heritage Site caves by boat or on foot! For a more challenging day out, make your way to the Cuilcagh Boardwalk Trail for a steep walk through pastures and bog with lovely views of Northern Ireland's varying terrains.

We were visiting elderly sick family in the local area they were very good to our adult disabled sons. The farmhouse was the best we have ever been to and we are regular self catering in Scotland Wales Ireland and England the house is very spacious furnished to an exceptional high standard everything you need and more need it is home from home. Location is convenient for visiting the beautiful counties of Fermanagh Cavan Leitrim Sligo and Donegal. The view from Derriens Farmhouse is breathtaking looking over a lake and on to Boho mountain. As a family we would like to thank John and Kathleen again for making our stay so good which was a difficult time visiting our elderly relatives.
