Film Crew Welcome

Cherrymount Cottage - An ideal base for crews filiming in Fermanagh, Tyrone and the Border Counties.

Film Crew Welcome Accommodation: Northern Ireland is increasingly used as a location for international and local TV and film productions offering unspoilt beauty, unique landscapes, urban scenes and rural settings. Film crews often struggle to find accommodation offering privacy, secure off-road parking for vehicles, ample storage facilities for equipment and suitable workspace with fibre fast broadband. We have worked to provide perfect film crew accommodation in the heart of County Fermanagh. 

Unbeatable Local Knowledge and Contacts.

Sometimes it just takes those local contacts to bring people together or find that special place or person. Your hosts David & Edith have lived their whole lives in County Fermanagh and have ran businesses in Enniskillen for over 30 years. To say they are well connected is an understatement. They will be only too happy to share their knowledge and can make introductions and arrangements on your behalf. 

We can also arrange practical assistance such as laundry services, taxi’s, car and van hire, restaurant bookings etc.

Just let us know what you need and we’ll get it sorted with minimum fuss and maximum discretion.

Secure Off-Street Parking for Your Vehicles.

We know that secure parking is a major consideration and can be a worry for crews, that’s why we’ve taken extra steps to put your mind at ease. Cherrymount Cottage has secure parking for up to six vehicles in our own gated driveway. The entire property is bordered by mature hedging with a high wall on the road side. Gates can be closed and if required a padlock can be provided on request. 

Secure Storage for Your Valuable Equipment.

We know that securing you valuable equipment is a major consideration for crews that’s why we’ve taken extra steps to put your mind at ease. Open the remote controlled automatic garage door and inside you’ll find sturdy shelving for all of your equipment and ample floor space for motorcycles, bike or other specialist equipment. 

For extra peace of mind we’ve even fitted security rings into the concrete floor – simply bring your own cable or chain lock and you can secure your precious gear to one of the anchor points (chain and lock can also be provided on request). 

Whilst an intruder alarm is not normally used in holiday accommodation, Cherrymount Cottage is fitted with a fully approved alarm system covering both the house and garage. If this is something you would like to have in use, just let us know.

Kit Drying Cabinet

Let’s be honest here, we get some lovely weather in Ireland’s north west, but we also get the occasional rain shower. After all that’s what gives us the beautiful lakes which so many people come to enjoy.

Should you get caught out in shower or two, you’ll need to dry your kit and clothing and we have the ideal solution. 

Our garage houses a purpose built drying cabinet. With sturdy clothes rail and boot and glove stands, it’s large enough to hold everyone’s kit. Simply hang up your gear, hit the switch and take yourself inside for a hot shower and a cuppa (or maybe even a well earned beer!) while you gear warms up and dries out ready for another day out and about tomorrow.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Storage space and our kit drying cabinet are not all you’ll find in the garage. We’ve also provided some other supplies and accessories to help make your stay run as smoothly as possible. 

You’ll find cloths and cleaning spray for cleaning off those pesky bugs together with boot polish and brushes to keep your footwear in ship-shape. There’s a spanner set, screwdrivers and some other basic tools, along with hand wipes to help out with those on-the-go minor repairs and adjustments. Outside there’s a tap and hose, perfect for washing down muddy kit and clothing. 

Extra Touches for Your Comfort

After you’ve parked up  and taken care of your kit, you’ll want to unwind and relax and there’s no better place than Cherrymount Cottage. Why not settle down in front of one of our 55″ smart TV’s and catch up on your favourite show.

If you really have to catch up on work, our dedicated office / study room provides the perfect quiet spot, but of course, with free fibre-fast wi-fi throughout the house you can work in any room you chose. If its relaxing solitude you’re after then settle down in a plus chair in the study with a book from our collection, or take it out into the garden and relax in nature.

If you are heading out for a full day on the go you’ll also find convenient flasks, travel mugs and lunch boxes in the kitchen, ready for your use.
