A pet on the back for Lough Erne lodges...
IN A move that’s sure to get doggy tails wagging all over Ireland, Lough Erne Resort has announced it is to open the doors of two of its luxury self-catering lodges to guests with pooches.
The general manager of Lough Erne Resort, herself a keen dog lover, explains: “Our US-based management company, TRU Hotels and Resorts, has reported an increasing international trend towards doggy-friendly short breaks over the years.
“However, it has only been more recently within Lough Erne Resort that we have been approached by regular guests who wanted to enjoy the beauty of the Fermanagh Lakelands but didn’t want to leave their four-legged friends at home.
“We all know they are our best friends, but it’s clear our doggies have become an even greater element within our extended families
since the pandemic.
“So, after careful consideration, we have decided to make two of our luxury self-catering lodges available for canine check-ins on a trial basis, meaning our guests can pamper themselves and their pooches in the tranquil countryside of Fermanagh.”
Whist the luxury resort’s doggy guests won’t be permitted inside the hotel, inside buildings or on the golf courses but those that are well behaved and, on a lead, will be permitted on the Collop Walk that envelopes the resort’s accommodation.
With the resort providing a welcome bone and toy, owners will be responsible for bringing their own provisions.
Each group will be limited to two doggy guests.
There will be a supplement of £50 per dog to stay at the resort plus a refundable deposit.
