Castle Coole is a magnificent historic estate situated on the western outskirts of Enniskillen, within the Marble Arch Geopark. It is one of the most notable and well-preserved stately homes in Northern Ireland. The estate covers a vast area with lush parklands and a large lake.

It was designed by James Wyatt and built between 1789 and 1798 for the 1st Earl of Belmore. It exemplifies neo-classical architecture, with symmetrical proportions, grand columns, and a sense of timeless elegance.
