The company
Finn Lough is our fair lake. It’s a place apart. Separated by Boa Island, protected by the fair waters of the lough, we stand tall with the ancient woodlands of Fermanagh around us. Finn Lough isn’t like any other hotel or resort. Through our connection with design and nature, we offer our guests a different level of luxury. Because we believe that plugging out is the best way to recharge.
Each and every one of our unique accommodation offerings are designed to allow the outside in. The Bubble Domes are for the less than traditional and offer a fully immersive forest experience. The more traditional lakes houses and suites offer fresh, Scandi-inspired interiors with a touch of vintage Irish to give you a window to the water beyond.
