About Crom
Few places in Ireland matter more for nature than Crom: some 2,000 acres of ancient woodland, parkland and islands on the shore of the Upper Lough, home to pine martens, red squirrels, deer and all eight native bat species. In 2026 the BBC made it the base for Springwatch. The public jetty is close to the visitor centre and the tea-room, which takes cash only; the estate charges admission, boaters included. Paths lead past the ruins of Old Crom Castle, built by the planter Michael Balfour in 1611 and burnt in the 1760s, along the shore to the boathouse and over the White Bridge. The Victorian Crom Castle is still the private home of the Earls of Erne. The National Trust hires out boats and canoes, and there are holiday cottages and camping on the estate. Opening is seasonal, so check the National Trust page first.
