Plenty of hiking places and right in the midst of giant statues we did not know existed! Would recommend that the owner provide information about the house facilities.

The cottage was well equipped and the surrounding area is beautiful. Plenty of places to walk the dog or go for a swim at Gortin Glen lakes, there's a lovely cafe in Gortin and Omagh is great for a shopping trip.
