A Cosy Christmas Base on the Water
Set right along the edge of the Erne, Watersedge offers more than just a place to stay.

Return in the evening to your own spacious apartment, with room to cook a festive meal, share stories by candlelight, or unwind with a classic Christmas film.

You’ll find thoughtful touches throughout, making it easy to settle in and feel at home, even if you’re travelling from far away.

Festive Fun Just Steps from Your Door
Enniskillen shines in the run-up to Christmas. From late November, the town comes alive with light displays, shop windows trimmed with garlands, and the comforting scent of spiced drinks and baked goods in the air.
Explore the Christmas market stalls, pick up local crafts and gifts, and enjoy seasonal menus in nearby pubs and restaurants. Whether it’s a hot chocolate at Rebecca’s Coffee Shop or a festive dinner at The Firehouse, you’ll find plenty of warmth and flavour to savour. The Enniskillen Castle Museums also host occasional winter events and exhibitions, while local churches and community halls often hold carol services and concerts. All of it is within walking distance, making Watersedge the ideal location to experience the best of the season without the stress.
A Peaceful Alternative to Holiday Chaos
If your idea of a perfect Christmas includes peace and simplicity, Watersedge is the place for you. Swap the busy high streets for lakeside paths. Trade queues and traffic for misty mornings, warm cups of tea, and the gentle quiet of nature.
And because the apartments are self-catering, you can celebrate your way — bring your favourite foods, create your own traditions, and enjoy total flexibility. Whether you want to cook a full Christmas dinner, enjoy a light brunch before opening gifts, or order in from one of Enniskillen’s excellent eateries, you’ll have everything you need. For guests with children, the spacious layout makes it easy to keep festive traditions going — stockings by the fireplace, hot chocolate in the mornings, and maybe even a visit from Santa.
The slower pace of a Watersedge holiday allows time for real connection, rest, and reflection — a rare gift in the festive season.
Family-Friendly, Couple-Ready, Celebration-Worthy
Watersedge welcomes all kinds of Christmas travellers. Families love the space and independence. Couples appreciate the privacy and scenic setting. Friends enjoy being able to gather, celebrate and unwind without hotel rules or rigid schedules.
Plus, with dedicated parking and ground-floor access, getting in and out — even with gifts or gear — is easy. The convenience of having your own apartment means no worrying about restaurant bookings for every meal, or sharing communal spaces during one of the busiest times of the year.
For those staying over the New Year, Enniskillen has its own laid-back celebrations and fireworks to enjoy, all close by. You can ring in the new year with a walk along the lough, a toast from your private balcony, or a night out in town followed by a peaceful return to your warm apartment.
