National Trust - Castle Coole
About This Museum
Nestled in the lush, green parkland just outside Enniskillen, Castle Coole is a breathtaking example of 18th-century grandeur. This stately home feels frozen in time, inviting you to wander through its lavishly restored state rooms and then descend to the surprisingly vast world of the servants' quarters below stairs. The surrounding wooded estate is perfect for a peaceful stroll, where you might even spot fallow deer grazing. It’s a complete and utterly fascinating glimpse into both upstairs and downstairs life.
Collection Highlights
Don't miss the magnificent State Bedchamber, prepared for a royal visit that never happened, or the extensive basement where you can see the original kitchen and laundry. The elegant neoclassical interiors are filled with fine furniture and delicate plasterwork.
