Beautiful medieval castles, cozy pubs, live music, and thrilling kayaking adventures are some of the things that come to mind when you think about Cavan in Ireland. There is a joke that claims Cavan is a county with a lake for every day of the year. This should be a subtle indication of the kind of thrill and adventure that awaits you here. With attractions and activities, such as Cavan Burren Park, Cavan County Museum, Clough Oughter Castle, the gorgeous Killykeen Forest Park, the afternoon tea sessions at Cabra Castle, the strolls at The Deerpark Forest, and the adventures at Marble Arch Caves (which is almost an hour’s drive away), you will have more than enough things to see and do. As you plan your trip, read below for our recommendations on the top log cabins near Cavan, Ireland.
