Fishing / Water
Fishing on site is provided via the "Kilcrow
River". Within walking distance, this is a beautiful
natural stream (river) running through our farm. It has been
voted the most improved river for cleanliness, as a natural
spawning area for fish breeding, and for excellent local
public environment awareness in Ireland in 1999. There are
different sections here for nice trout fishing, and this
river has given a good days fishing to many people over many
years.
Carp fishing can be arranged 20 minutes from the
centre, in a private lake where excellent specimens of this
rare fish can be sported. Pike and Trout fishing are
available either by bank or boat on the River Shannon.
Guides, boats, transport and maps are available.
Canoeing on site
is available on the "Kilcrow River". This river is
within walking distance as it runs through he farm.
The kids and horses really enjoy the splashing and
freedom in the river. The kids are safe in this shallow
river with full control or their vessels as they row their
way up and down stream during the summer months at
Flowerhill.
The river Shannon is
less than 15 minutes away by car. This is an amenity we
encourage our guests to utilise fully. The water sports
available on the Shannon include Power boating, Water skiing
and Paragliding. If all of this sounds a little too
energetic for you why not let Oliver organise a day cruise
to the beautiful Terryglass for lunch and perhaps a few
drinks returning that evening.
