Florence Court

on the North West Trail

Florence Court is a splendid example of an 18th century Irish country house and demesne, enjoying a spectacular setting amongst the mountains and forests of west Fermanagh with breathtaking views to Benaughlin and the Cuilcagh Mountains.

It was built in a lively classical style and embellished with superb rococo plasterwork. The recent return of many Enniskillen family belongings to the mansion has rekindled its warm and gentle atmosphere. The house tour includes the exquisite decoration, Irish furniture and service quarters.

Surrounded by a large area of parkland, there are extensive walks in the grounds, a saw mill, holiday cottage and walled garden. Florence Court is a popular attraction for all ages and the North West Trail follows a forest trail route through the property.

Please note: the trail is a forest road and can be rough in places, an alternative route via the main road can be used.
