Meandering around the waterways, you can’t fail to be enchanted by the charming villages dotted along vast stretches of water; mysterious islands rising out of quiet loughs; stunningly beautiful and utterly unspoiled landscapes that seem to exist in a haze of tranquility, and lively towns that are buzzing with excellent places to eat, drink, visit and stay. The Lakelands region incorporates parts of the following counties: Fermanagh, Tyrone, Cavan, Monaghan, Leitrim South, Roscommon, Laois West, Westmeath, Longford, Offaly.
