Skip the Parents: Lough Erne Resort Launches ‘Skip-Gen’ Adventure for the Halloween Break
1st Oct 2026
New grandparent-and-grandchild escape brings together afternoon tea, interactive golf and quality family time in the Fermanagh Lakelands
This October, Lough Erne Resort is encouraging grandparents to make the most of the Halloween school break with a new getaway created especially for granny, grandad and their grandchildren.
This new Skip-Gen Adventure taps into the growing appeal of holidays that leave Mum and Dad at home and give grandparents and grandchildren the opportunity to spend uninterrupted quality time.
The school holiday provides the perfect excuse for an autumn adventure in the Fermanagh Lakelands enjoying afternoon tea, playing golf or simply celebrating the novelty of travelling together.
Guests can choose an overnight stay in the Resort, with a limited number of connected rooms available, or opt for one of Lough Erne Resort’s spacious two or three-bedroom lodges, offering families additional room to relax together in their own space.
The package includes a hearty lakeside breakfast, with plenty to tempt grandparents and little ones alike, followed by a fun-filled dip in the Thai Spa’s infinity pool. Granny and Grandad can also enjoy some well-earned relaxation in the sauna and steam room.
The experience also introduces two activities designed with memorable grandparent-grandchild bonding in mind.
A “Granny & Me” Afternoon Tea offers an opportunity to dress up, settle in and enjoy one of the great small pleasures of a hotel stay together, while a “Grandad & Me” Toptracer Golf session brings a more playful twist to time on the driving range, using the same ball-tracking technology seen on golf tournaments on TV. Both can be booked separately.
For grandparents, the package offers something increasingly valuable: time. And autumn provides a particularly atmospheric backdrop for making memories.
Set on its own 600-acre peninsula in the Fermanagh Lakelands, Lough Erne Resort is surrounded by woodland, water and countryside, with October bringing changing leaves, crisp lakeside walks and long evenings that lend themselves perfectly to slowing down and spending time together as a family.
Available midweek throughout October until 5th November 2026, the overnight Lough Erne Resort Skip-Gen Adventure starts at £300 per night in a 2-Bedroom Lodge or £400 per night in a 3-Bedroom Lodge, including bed and breakfast.
