“Breathtaking home with the most amazing view. The locals were so welcoming and the restaurants nearby served the most delicious food. I would highly recommend this home! The views were that of a painting. Truly beautiful and stunning! We definitely do not see this in America. Thank you for making our vacation the most memorable!.”

Two Waterside Properties. One River

Blueway Stays is a small collection of two waterside properties set directly on the Shannon–Erne Blueway, just outside Belturbet in Co. Cavan neear the Fermanagh boarder. Both have direct jetty access onto the river for kayaking, fishing, wild swimming or slow mornings watching the water go by.

Choose the Riverside Cabin for space, a garden and a proper fishing base. Choose the Riverside Chalet for something a little more tucked away. Either way, the river is right there."

Seasonal Stays

Summer in Cavan's Lake District

Summer here centres on the river. Boats moving steadily along the Erne, kayaks out through the day, and the jetty becomes part of the routine - in and out of the water, sitting out, watching it all go by.

Summer settles in more slowly here, but it lingers longer when it arrives. Days stretch out over the water, the river busy with passing boats, the air warm enough to stay outside without thinking about it.

Some of the best moments are still the simplest: an early swim from the jetty, coffee in hand as the river wakes up, or an hour in the sun watching boats drift by.
As evening comes in, the light softens across the water and the pace drops again.
And when night finally falls, the skies open up. This part of Cavan and Fermanagh remains one of the darker stretches on the island, so the stars still have their say, even in summer.

SEE

There’s plenty to explore across Cavan and Fermanagh as the days get longer. A short drive brings you to Crom Estate, with woodland paths, lough views and an atmospheric castle ruin. Closer again, the looped walks in Killykeen Forest Park are easy, well-marked and ideal for a quick outing.

For something simple, Turbet Island in Belturbet is a handy, low-effort wander with river views and a bit of local history — perfect if you want fresh air without going far.

DO

If you're in the mood for getting out and about, there are great options nearby. Cavan Burren Park has well-marked trails and wide views, while the Cuilcagh Boardwalk is far quieter in winter and ideal for a longer walk.

For gentler days, the forest trails around Florence Court are close by and easy to explore, and both Cavan town and Enniskillen offer cafés, shops and local makers if you’d prefer to stay indoors.

TASTE

You don’t have to go far for good food around here. Corleggy Cheese next door is always worth a stop, and local markets in Cavan and Enniskillen are great for picking up bits to enjoy back at the cabin or studio.

For a bite out, Cafe Nua in the village is great forbreakfast and lunch. For dinner, The Olde Post Inn in Cloverhill remains a favourite for thoughtful, well-executed cooking without being overly formal.

EXPERIENCE

There are lots of interesting community events and festivals over the summer months . Nothing huge, just relaxed, friendly and very local. Or keep it simple: stay warm, take it slow and enjoy the peace this time of year brings. Check out our What’s On page for all the latest happenings.
