Killyhevlin Hotel in Enniskillen, Co. Fermanagh, has announced plans for the addition of 12 new self-catering lakeview studios following a £1.6 million investment and the creation of 10 new jobs.
Details
The new studios at Killyhevlin Hotel, which currently comprises 71 guestrooms and 20 two bedroom self-catering lodges, are due to open in July. They have been designed specifically for couples looking for a self-catering experience on the edge of Lough Erne with the added benefits of the adjacent hotel facilities.
Each one bedroom studio will feature large, front-facing glazing to maximise the views that Lough Erne has to offer, an open plan fully-equipped kitchen, a lounge area, a bathroom and air-conditioning. There will be six units at lower ground floor and six units at upper ground level, each with private outdoor furnished patio areas.
Killyhevlin Hotel worked with local companies Elliott York Partnership and Kavanagh Construction along with BuildWright Modular Homes and Douglas Wallace to deliver this project for July 2023.
