We had an amazing experience with Erne Boat Hire. From the moment we arrived, the team was welcoming and knowledgeable. The boat was in great condition, comfortable and easy to handle, even for those of us without much boating experience. They gave us a clear briefing on operating the boat and some great tips on where to go/sites to see. We went to Devenish Island to visit the Monastic site. The scenery was absolutely stunning with calm waters and beautiful islands. Booking was easy, prices were very reasonable, and the service was top-notch from start to finish. Highly recommend this company if you're looking to explore the natural beauty of Lower Lough Erne from the water. We'll definitely be back!

Great experience with my 3 dogs!! I was able to drive the boat all by myself 😃 I loved it!! My dogs not much as it has a loud motor noise. We had fun at the Devenish island though!

The service in general seems well used and known locally. However we had an extremely stressful experience caused by what can only be described as negligence on the part of the business. Upon leaving, our boat almost immediately had water gathering on the bottom of the boat. Ten minutes later and the boat became extremely hard to manoeuvre. Little did we know that it was actively sinking and the storage chests had filled up with water making the boat unbalanced. Reasons for this below.... We turned around and at that point the boat began to take on more water. We were fortunately rescued by a nearby charter boat who towed us to a jetty. The Lough warden found that the bung had come out of the bottom of the boat and they managed to rescue the boat. Fortunately nobody was harmed or ended up in the water, although by sheer luck that someone was there to help. We later received an apologetic sounding message from the owner and a refund, but also complete denial of responsibility, and in so doing effectively accused us of taking the bung out ourselves. The warden agreed that these were hard to find and we were unlikely to be near that part of the boat as it was under a cover. I would suggest it was ready to go before we got in and us getting in has popped it out. This should have been checked before every journey, not at the start of the day as the owner later told me. So an unexpectedly stressful experience with two young children and a dog and would categorically not use the service again. (The image is the boat being bailed out by the Lough wardens to stop it sinking at the jetty.)
