We had a great time! Friendly helpful people, first time visiting a greyhound racing night!

Lovely place to spend Sunday afternoon with friendly bunch whilst making the bets on favourite hounds and enjoying cheeky drinks.

Restaurant is disgraceful. Doubt this place has ever had a lick of paint. Carpet is threadbare and dirty. Food horrible. I was embarrassed having brought American guests for a night out. Shame on whoever is running this business.

Been here on a few sundays. It was free entry and it was a lot of fun. Unfortunately didnt win! The dinners being served looked great although I did not have any.

Great night out. Was my first time here.Had a burger as had a late dinner and was quite good.. All staff friendly and helpful. Would recommend it to everyone. Will be back again soon..

We had a fun family night there - delicious chips and beer and some fun betting.

A great night with great food and outstanding service from all staff.

Premium store and very nice bags, cheaper than other retail stores

This is super good expensive brand.. I have these two taken in America 1) the big red one is 60$ and here is 99€ 2) the small I have is 70$ and here is 95€..

The last couple of times iv been in this store i was looked after by the same girl , she maybe a Manager ? I didn’t catch her name but she will know herself when i say i was looking for a t-shirt because i sprayed bleach on one that i had. Just want to mention she was very engaging and went out of her way to get some t-shirts for me to try , she had a lovely way with customers. … Thanks again.

Person at the door managing the queue a little rude.

Brilliant service there today from an Asian girl, sorry to describe her this way but didn't get her name. she informed me of offers that I was not aware of after talking to another staff member. She was on the door when I returned and recognised me straight away and let me in. Superb staff member 👏👌

Got a shirt went back to get a refund to be put back on my card was no they don't refund money back on your card the give you a gift voucher they take your money but will give it back to you

Very unfriendly staff. The Chinese girl treated us badly at the entrance, shouting to us. Promised to get inside the shop in less than 40min, waiting 1h15 min and didn't get in. I am so disappointed with the staff service. There were more people complaining at the time.

Good location. Plenty of parking. Lots of shade. But very very expensive! We paid over €50 for one adult and two kids. The Japanese gardens are wonderful, but actually very small. We were expecting something bigger considering the high price. The various gardens are lovely to walk around. The grounds are immaculate. Very friendly and very helpful staff.

Great afternoon spent at stud. Beautiful gardens and tour was packed full of information. We saw some legends during tour and mums and foals. In the interactive experience is fun. Tasty food in restaurant too

Absolutely loved this place. I travelled with two 7yr old boys who loved it from start to finish. They loved the race experience, the waterfall in St Fiachras garden, the foals, the fairy garden was a big hit. They spent a long time in the Japanese Gardens, exploring all the nooks and crannies and walking the stepping stones. There was none of the usual "I'm tired" or "I'm hungry". It was all go.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 A Peaceful Hidden Gem in Kildare! The Japanese Gardens at the Irish National Stud are absolutely breathtaking — a perfect blend of nature, artistry, and serenity. From the moment you step through the entrance, you’re transported into a beautifully designed landscape full of winding paths, stone bridges, water features, and symbolic planting. The journey through the gardens is designed to represent the “Life of Man,” and it’s both peaceful and thought-provoking. Everything is so well-maintained, and there’s always something new to notice, whether it’s the koi fish, the vibrant flowers, or the gentle sounds of water flowing. It’s a lovely spot for a reflective solo stroll, a romantic walk, or a family outing. Don’t miss pairing your visit with the National Stud nearby — it makes for a perfect day out. Highly recommend if you’re in the area or even planning a short trip from Dublin. A true hidden gem that captures the spirit of Japanese garden design right here in Ireland!

I throughly enjoyed my few hrs here. The food was nice, no queing and plenty of parking. Priced not too expensive, per person, but for a small family it could be alot, and we didnt do a tour. The Japanese garden was a delight, the sole reason for my visit. Though don't be expecting peace n quiet. Pristine and exceptional maintenance of the gardens. I'll be visiting again.

Fabulous Place to Visit. Beautiful Grounds to walk around, Amazing Trees, Plants & Shrubs, lovely to see and pet the horses. Visit the Fairy Trail, see the ducks and walk around St. Fiachra's Garden, so peaceful. Loved the Irish Racehorse Experience, very interesting and good fun. Lovely Gift Shop & Restaurant.

National is always worth a visit loads to do. Our kids loved. Play of play areas, coffee shops, horses and walks. Japanese Garden is beautiful. Highly recommend a visit.

Brilliant museum, so much to look at and my little fella especially loved the trenches out the back. Plenty of things to interact with too! Has a cafe on-site but didn't go into it, from the looks of it I think it was just scones and chocolate bars along with coffees. Would highly recommend visiting!

What a great day out. My 10 year old and 2 of his friends had a blast in trenches and even tried reinacting the war. The museum is lovely also. The staff were amazing and so very friendly. Will definately visit again.

Really enjoyed visiting Cavan Museum today. Margaret was so helpful she made our visit so lovely. There is so much to see It's worth going to and so reasonable. All the staff were very friendly. Well done everyone 👏

What a great place to visit & a lot of history ,we would highly recommend & a lovely little coffee ☕️ shop on site !

Fantastic place to visit. Wonderful and informative exhibits of modern irish history and an outdoor representation of a WW1 trench. Took a few hours to get through everything and could have spent more time here if I could. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Will make a return visit before the year is out. (6 stars if I could give it)

My second visit to the Cavan County Museum, and I enjoyed it just as much as the first visit. The WWI Trench Warfare installation was open this time, though only about half, it looked like. It was still interesting and informative about what the soldiers would have experienced in the trenches. The indoor museum is amazingly thorough and two visits aren’t enough to take it all in. This visit the top floor has a new exhibit about the Irish War of Independence, and there is so much history, pain and eventual triumph, though many years before peace. Here are just a couple of photos of the archeological exhibits that are so fascinating.

A great place to spend a day, good variety of exhibitions to take in. You do need to give yourself time to wander round as there are three floors and an outside garden and area where there is a replica WW1 trench to explore. Lovely little cafe to have a bite and a cuppa as well. A really great experience, we will definitely be back.

This is one of the most famous archeological sites in Ireland that is a burial ground for ancient people over 5,000 years ago. Caution: the walk is long and very steep.

Historical Landmark with exceptional views and well worth a visit. Be prepared for a bit of a hike but well worth the effort, guides and information when you get there.

Beautiful view from the view. The tomb is maybe not overly impressive but depends on what you expect. It's a short, few minutes walk from car park but pretty steep.

This was better than I had expected. It is very easy to get to and very well maintained. There is a bit of a hike up to the main cairn but definitely worth it. Amazing views of surrounding g countryside.

Great visit in spite of the wind. The place is beautiful with a great view of the surrounding area. We also really enjoyed the guided tour. I would recommend it if you are not afraid of getting through a steep enough climb.

An impressive megalithic site that requires a bit of hill walking to reach. Sadly, I don't think it is possible to get a key to enter the cairn anymore, but it is still worth a trip.

Steep short climb, great view. Amazing that people thousands of years ago built these Cairns.

Must visit for locals! I have lived near Newbridge for 3 years and always wanted to visit but never did until last month. The shop has something for everyone! Whether you’re looking for some jewellery, cutlery, Christmas ornaments or even preloved items! Price range is great, you can get 1 fork for a few euros or you can get a full cutlery set for 60e or something more bespoke too. The silverware factory tour is great, small and you learn a lot about how many they times they adapted and didn’t give up. I would recommend taking ear plugs with you if you’re sensitive to noise. Visitor centre also hosts Museum of Style Icons. It’s free to visit and they have the “revenge dress”. Finally there’s delicious afternoon tea to enjoy in the lovely cafe. Warmly recommend!

Visited here recently, such a beautiful shop,beautiful jewellery and homeware and much more...Christmas Shop all set up in there,gorgeous, well worth a visit....upstairs then is a museum....amazing ....I was mesmerised....bought a beautiful necklace too....and prices were good, theres also a beautiful cafe too....staff extremely helpful and friendly

Had afternoon tea in the cafe, nice selection of food and staff were so friendly. For the price of €67 I did think the sweet tier lacked a little bit. The museum is a must visit so many unique historic pieces and great that its free! Only issue is the toilets were so dirty so I couldn’t use the bathroom before leaving.

Beautiful shop, lovely jewellery where I purchased a new watch. Amazing restaurant unto it where we had lovely breakfast. Whitewater shopping across the road from it so a great day had.

Great sale plenty to choose from! Most stock in the shop was heavily reduced. I'd suggest getting there early as it can get quite busy as the day goes on and I'd imagine parking could be a difficulty. We didn't take a trip up to the museum but it's always worth a visit.

I love this place, beautiful silverware, if you need presents for anyone you will definitely find the here and the exposition is so nice. I had a very good time here. Thanks to the owner!

Wonderful place to visit. Embodies culture and timeless pieces. There is a shop selling gifts, jewelry, books and silverware. Also present is a restaurant to have some food on your visit. There is a beautiful free museum with fashion pieces from style icons. A lovely place to visit and learn plenty.

This was our first visit to Wallaby Woods. It's not widely signposted but it is easy to find on Google Maps. Have a care on the roads nearby as they are bog roads and can be quite bumpy in places. Wallaby Woods itself deserves to be much better known than it is as it's probably the best attraction in the area for children. We spent over five hours there with my nephew's, they particularly enjoyed the bouncy castles and the zip line. The grounds are very well cared for, as are the animals, some of whom you get to hold. The staff are very friendly & helpful. The food in the cafe is reasonably priced and very nice. If you're looking for a place to keep the kids occupied for an afternoon then I would not hesitate to recommend Wallaby Woods, you won't be disappointed.

This place pleasantly surprised me. Doesn't look like much from the outside but inside is very pretty forest walk with lots of animals and flowers. We also got to pet snake, rabbit, tortoise, guinea pig, donkey and a dragon! We also got to feed albino wallabies, really great place.

Great day out in this pet farm with great playgrounds for all ages. It's not very big so don't need to worry that kids will get tired walking around. We loved the zip line and the little playground located conveniently beside the cafe. There is couple of picnic spots and a football pitch. Would definitely recommend!

Great day out for the family.... Kids between 2 and 10 loved it. Staff super friendly and helpful

Excellent .. great place for day with kids ..even met Trump himself

Stuff very friendly, lovely coffee shop, animals and even obstacle course... We loved it!

What a great child friendly place lovely and clean great staff to

Another very enjoyable day. My kids loved it! We spent over 4 hours. Our second time at Pooka Spooka and it did not disappoint. Looking forward to their Christmas experience in December. We traveled from Kilkenny & was well worth the two hour drive.

Attended pooka spooka with my youngest child and my 13 year old Attended farmaphobia with her friends. Both really well run Halloween events , I highly recommend getting the fast pass for farmaphobia as she was able to move through the different screaming events quickly enough about 1hour and half while I waited in the coffee shop . The pooka spooka was really fun for the youngest ,lots of entertainment he especially enjoyed the juggling guy and flying on a broomstick. Food vans were available for both events with lots of options.

We attended the Ghosts of the Manor in Rockfield House last night. It was absolutely brilliant. The actors were outstanding 👏 A really enjoyable experience

What an absolutely incredible place to visit with your children. We have been for Christmas and now also Halloween (as well as one in the summer) and by a mile, it stands out as being the best place to go. There is so much to see and do in Causey Farm. You’d easily spend 3.5-4 hours exploring with young children (not including if you spent time in the cafe as well). Some of their activities are so simple yet so much fun And so entertaining and engaging. I highly recommend this spot for all seasonal events - Christmas, Halloween, summer. Even Dogitude, their festival for dogs is so unbelievably fun and heartwarming and is unmissable! Thank you Causey.

Christmas Experience Additional needs day, brilliant all around, the santa visit in the room, the music was a bit too loud we could barley hear santa calling out names of familys and its hurt some kids ears.

Spent all day Sunday at Rockfield House at Artival . The surroundings were absolutely beautiful. Lots of great activities and fantastic stalls selling beautiful products . The staff were very friendly and great fun . Definitely be back .Thank you .

We visited for the Santa experience with our three children ages 6, 10 and 12. We all loved it. Each stop along the way was so beautiful and every person and elf we met was so welcoming and kind. Santa was so friendly and took his time chatting with our littlest who had a question for him. The gifts were really good and the entire evening was absolutely delightful. Thank you to everyone who made it possible. It was so magical and special.

Beautiful, poignant and so much fun x

Love love loved it a beautiful park lots to see and do.

Absolutely incredible little Forest with a bigger one behind it of all different distances if your after a walk! If its just for the kids there is so much to do and see in the fairy part ❤️ it was honestly magical for my little fella, he loved going round everything, everything so different but so unique, it really is a very beautiful spot! Little cafe there too, with some delicious homemade goods and some hot food, free fruit and water. We then finished up sitting by the picturesque lake feeding the ducks! A beautiful spot on the sun or rain. Would highly recommend a visit with the kid's for a fun, cheap and full day out!

Fantastic time spent here with the family. Every visit is better than the last. Plenty to explore here and the coffee has improved something fierce. Surrounding woods full of things for kids to explore and there is a very solid path which is buggy friendly. River too which is full of wildlife. Saw a red squirrel here for the first time too. Definitely visit here every few months. 10/10

We were in the area doing ancestry research and our Airbnb hostess recommended that this park and this forest would be a great place for an afternoon walk. This is such a magical and special place for a tribute to a local girl. We explored and took so many photos to remember our visit. We loved the fairy name plaques on the trees around the forest.

Nice forest. We can swim and even do fishing. Forest walk is amazing.

What a magical place! Great for family, beautiful nature,small coffee shop... We enjoyed and would love to come again.

Thanks to the book that bears its name, Kells is probably the best known of the Gaelic monastic sites. The book is not here and all that remains here is a churchyard with a few towers, a couple of high crosses and a locked church. The carvings and inscriptions on the crosses are interesting

A beautiful location with loads to see and explore, the round tower, the high cross and the large tower to the rear of the church stand out for their own points of interest. Parking was on the road and you can explore the cemetery and walk all the way around the church to enjoy the views provided, all in all a very ebjoyable visit, cheers

The three high crosses here plus one more in town are an absolute must see for anyone interested in church history and spirituality. These are the iconic high crosses in many brochures of Ireland and so see them right up close is remarkable.

Visiting on Bank holiday weekend. Interesting old headstones and High Cross's. Very little information a available on site which is unusual considering this is where the Book of Kells originated from.

Better than expected. Not the original church or spire next to it but the round tower and crosses are.

Charming old church, graveyard and round tower. Full of character and history.

Worth a look around, some impressive old tomb stones about.

Amazing castle.. love the history. Our guide was wonderful and knowledgeable. The tour takes about an hour inside and will cost money, exploring the grounds is free and maybe 30 to 45 minutes for that. The Braveheart castle... worth seeing.

Trim Castle is a beautiful historical landmark to visit, with a rich and intriguing history. The castle grounds are free to visit and explore, whereas entering the castle is possible for a small fee of €5 per person. We decided to take the guided tour, which was led by William. I highly, highly recommend this. William is very knowledgeable and humorous. His knowledge regarding the castle's history goes far beyond what you would expect. He answered any questions posed by the group with sheer joy and enthusiasm. The tour takes approximately 45 to 60 minutes, and takes you through the various rooms and floors in the castle. The view from the rooftop is amazing. Thank you William! It has been a pleasure to listen to you.

I really enjoyed my visit to this castle. Its history is fascinating. Plus, the views over the city from above are excellent. 1. Largest Castle in Ireland: Trim Castle is the largest Anglo-Norman stronghold in Ireland, covering an area of ​​approximately 30,000 m². It was built in the 12th century by Hugh de Lacy as the center of the Lordship of Meath, and its massive walls with towers and a moat made it virtually impregnable. 2. Unique Architecture: The castle's central keep (donjon) has a rare cruciform shape with twenty corners, which distinguishes it from typical Norman fortresses. This three-story structure was erected on the site of an ancient ringfort and is surrounded by a massive curtain wall 450 meters long.   3. Film Role: Trim Castle became famous as the filming location for the movie "Braveheart," starring Mel Gibson, where it stood in for the medieval walls of York and London. The war film "The Big Red One," starring Mark Hamm, was also filmed here.

We visited Trim Castle on a sunny afternoon and absolutely loved it! Even though it’s mostly ruins today, you can still feel how grand it must have been — Ireland’s largest Norman castle, right by the River Boyne. The grounds are free to walk around, and entry to the tower is just €4 per person. The view from the top is fantastic, and it’s fun to know parts of Braveheart were filmed here. A beautiful mix of history, atmosphere, and scenery — definitely worth a visit!

Trim castle has a free guided tour, I believe every hour. Interesting facts, and three built models, showing how it was built up through the years. Quite a few towers, had fallen down, or been scavenged. There is a large cathedral tower falling down across from the castle. And, when you get above the Keep, you can see by most of the stones surrounding the castle where the walls were, a sheep gate, and where most of the towers stood.

A really great old castle, one of the largest because of the area inside the walls is quite big. There’s a really good guided tour inside the Castle Keep. You have to take the tour to see the inside, well worth it. The tour takes you all the way to the top, which is a fantastic view over the area and the town. I was lucky it was a sunny warning when I got there and took the tour and it started to rain just as I was leaving the castle. Get there early at opening before the crowds. There’s lots to see inside the Keep with models of what the Keep used to look like. You can walk around inside the castle grounds with lots of good views of the Keep from the outside. The tour guide was very informative and happy to answer my many questions.

A Medieval Marvel - Trim Castle Trim Castle is a must-visit! I visited this past weekend and was blown away by the rich history, impressive architecture, and beautiful surroundings. This 12th-century castle is a treasure trove of stories and legends. Highlights: - Keep and Walls: Explore the impressive stone keep and curtain walls - Great Hall: Stunning stonework and medieval charm - River Boyne: Scenic views and peaceful atmosphere Tips: - Wear comfy shoes for exploring the castle grounds - Check opening hours and plan your visit accordingly - Don't miss the audio tour for a deeper dive into history Trim Castle is a hidden gem in Ireland's heritage. You'll feel like royalty wandering these ancient stones!

We had a lovely time here over the weekend. I was really pleased with the experience and the prices are great, usually these type of places are expensive but this was not. Food was also reasonably charged. My daughter loved the bouncy castles and go karts. Some of the animals were hiding in their huts so we didn't see them all but was nicely laid out and the animals seemed happy and well cared for.

Fantastic place to spend the whole day really. Very clean, taken care of and entertaining.Kids had amazing time running around, checking on animals, the educational centre is fantastic! The restaurant has delicious food and the oeices are very reasonable. Can highly recommend!!

I visited on a weekend. Though my group of 4 people got tickets at the counter on arrival, it is recommended to book tickets in advance to avoid waiting time or disappointment. The entire place is designed for kids. There are many exotic birds and animals. Some are placed in small cages whereas some are in open fenced areas. There is a separate playground for kids too. Good place to visit in a group.

Lots of pros: food and beverages are reasonable in quality and price. We were told no pizza before 12:30, but then we saw someone with one at 12:15 🤨 The animals seem well cared for and they have many species. The playground was a lot of fun for the kids The road is very narrow so you might have a hairy moment trying to squeeze through.

Fantastic place.. kids have so much fun.. we had not been since last yr.. the new playground area is lovely and crazy golf

If the child is 5yo or bigger, will surely enjoy the place. There is golf, football ground, zipline apart from the animals.

Clonfert farm is the best pet farm in the whole of Ireland and excellently maintained. We could discover a lot of exotic animals and birds like marmoset , racoons , meerkats , Alpacas , wild birds from Latin America , Africa , East Asia etc. Feeding is limited to very few animals though. The Fairy trail, artefacts, Decor , Enclosures, details on the exotic animals are intriguing. The play facilities are one of the farm’s standout features. There are multiple outdoor playgrounds scattered throughout the park with Mini golf, Kids Buggy Ride, Bouncing Castle , Mini zip line and much more . There’s also an indoor soft play area, Barn Coffee shop, cafe , BBQ Area and Birthday venues Overall a great place to visit with family & kids

Really great local museum in a gorgeous new space in Monaghan. The exhibits were very well put together and each display was fascinating.

I visited in late July with my 2 teenagers and we loved it. The interactive features were a big hit and it gave a fascinating insight into life in border counties. The building is so accessible and bright. The welcome we got by the women at reception was so warm and we had a lovely discussion about life in monaghan and they were so knowledgeable. It was the highlight of our trip.

Monaghan County Museum is a wonderful place to explore local history and culture. The exhibits are thoughtfully curated, engaging, and easy to navigate, offering a fascinating insight into the region’s heritage. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and happy to share stories and answer questions. The museum is well-maintained, clean, and provides a peaceful environment to enjoy a leisurely visit. Highly recommended for anyone interested in history or looking for a charming cultural experience in Monaghan!

Well worth the visit. There's lots of information and historical objects from across Monaghan to see in the museum. I found the War of Independence exhibition particularly interesting with detailed information related to the county from that time period. Also it's free to enter so I'd certainly recommend paying a visit there.

A lovely place to visit.

Very interesting little Museum.

An honest reflection of the county

This house and grounds are fantastic, parking was at the front gate, there are lovely walks all along the river. It has a beautiful waterfall and some other interesting object of interest. Well worth a visit and to explore, cheers

Amazing palladian style house. We really did enjoy our visit with our guide Fergus who was really knowledgeable and passionate. The tour was free. The parkland were stunning.

Visited Over the weekend. Staffs are very polite and helpful. The guide i don’t remember his name but he explained us everything. I really liked the way he was explaining and helping all. It was an hour long tour. Worth visiting. felt like it was quite quick, all credit goes to the tour Guide. There is a toilet when you enter inside the house.

I really enjoyed a quiet moment at the Castletown House, overlooking the Liffey with Castletown House in the background—truly picturesque. The parklands are beautiful and free to explore, and the guided house tour . Highly recommended for history buffs, walkers, and families looking for a scenic day out

Beautiful estate and the tour was brilliant, would definitely recommend and our tour guide was so helpful and friendly!

If you are looking for a beautiful park to have a great walk in this is it. What could be better it's clean and well maintained (thank you OPW). I've yet to book the house walk/talk so am looking forward to that and I know it will be well worth the visit. The History behind this beautiful estate is well worth reading up on. Talk a walk down by the Liffey ....experience bats at sundown, see swans and their cygnets, coote, water hens and ducks and I believe there's a kingfisher at some part of the walk but you'd have to wait and have great eyesight! There's a coffee shop on site also, but please....leave no trace. Dogs welcome if well behaved and again the OPW have placed dog bins so please use them. Park shuts at 19.00.

Tour was free, which was awesome. Some interesting things learned. Guide was generally good but a little bit rude when people asked questions.

Love walking around here. Brilliant place for a walk any time of year. Some paths very uneven and damaged, due to storms. However must have been cleared, and by the looks of it, they working to clear the rest. Also seen a coffee trailer at it this time, was open when I was there but will definitely go back to try.

Lovely park! They accept card payment for parking now (around 5€). Toilets aren’t maintained but otherwise very nice walking trails and dense woods! Must visit once.

Wow, what a park! Dún a Rí Forest Park is a hidden gem — full of beautiful forest trails and peaceful walks along the water. Perfect for all weather and great for families or solo explorers alike. We really enjoyed the visit and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend for anyone who loves nature!

We were a group of 10 and hiked for hours in this forest. The kids enjoyed stepping on the stones in the stream. Some lovely sights, fresh air, exercise. The signage could have been better as kids eventually got tired and there were lots of trails to get lost on. Overall would hike here again.

Tucked away near the historic castle, this forest walking spot is a true hidden gem. The trail winds through lush greenery, with tall trees forming a natural canopy that filters the sunlight beautifully. It’s peaceful, well-maintained, and ideal for a quiet stroll or a reflective walk.

It's a lovely forest park with great picnic area. Perfect for Sunday walk with the family

Dún a Rí Forest Park is a beautiful and tranquil spot, perfect for a peaceful walk or a family day out. The woodland trails are well-marked and offer a mix of riverside paths, shaded forest walks, and open clearings filled with wildlife. The scenery is stunning in every season, especially along the river with its old stone bridges and waterfalls. There’s plenty of parking, good picnic areas, and clear signage throughout. It’s an ideal place to unwind, explore nature, and enjoy a bit of local history.

We visited two weeks ago and it was definitely worth it! The staff were friendly and welcoming. There are rides for both kids and adults, which made it fun for the whole family. We also enjoyed the zoo - a nice bonus to the day. The only downside was the long waiting time for every ride. Other than that, we had a great time and would recommend visiting.

Generally good, I'd give it 4.5 stars in fairness. October turned out to be a good time to visit, still a bit of atmosphere but fewer crowds and less queuing. Good variety of rides, and the staff were very pleasant - friendly, and helpful. The zoo/ raptor area and petting zoo were fun and well worth the visit. Again, lovely staff. Otherwise the rides were fun, value for money, thrilling enough and well run / maintained. Worth a special mention - a really decent amount of Blue Badge parking in the car park well above average. More places should follow suit. On the down side, the 5 D cinema was very disappointing. The movement of the seats was out of sync with the movie, the 3D element was all but non existent. It was the only attraction we all thought wasn't up to par. Overall though, very good value for money including the gift shop.

Our 3 year old had the best day at Emerald park. We went on a Sunday and there wasn't any wait for the junior zone rides. Even the adult rides were only about 10-15 minutes wait. Plenty to do and see. Great experience walking into the Lemur enclosure. Food in the restaurant was amazing, massive portions and great value.

Brilliant day out. Went with a 5 and a 2 year old, the youngest is 96cm tall and he could go on almost all of the rides in the junior zone, which has a minimum limit of 95cm. There were about 10 rides they could go on (that we found, anyway), so they were thrilled. There's also really big playgrounds for them to run around in and expend energy. We didn't really have to queue, and we could easily leave the buggy by every ride whilst we went on with the kids. There were lots of benches available to sit.down and rest when needed. The best part of the day was the Tricky Trail, there for the Halloween season - it was amazing! Lots of interaction with the staff who.couldnt have been friendlier. We'd like to go back in the summer and when they're a little older too. One thing is that the online interactive map kept freezing, so get a paper map if you can.

The park is not in county Dublin and there is not Public transport from Dublin City centre. The day that we went they were not many people as It was raining quiet a lot in the morning. So, we didn't have to wait long. The park is divided in two main sections: zoo and attractions. The attraction area could be also divided between adults and children. There is enough attractions to spend the day. In the zoo area, for me the star was the secretary bird. The first time I see one so close. There is a show where they showed you three raptors: secretary bird, bold eagle and falcon. It was really impressive to see these majestic birds.

Really incredible place to visit. The quality and amenities there are fantastic. It was a great day out, plenty of toilets and snack locations (important for the kids), and the food was excellent and very reasonable priced. The rides there are very good, something for everyone! Would really recommend!

I liked tayto park since I was a child, so here are some things that I love and dont love: >The bigger rides are amazing. My personal favourites are the Endeavour and the Cú Chulainn. They make your stomachs tingle and adrenaline flow. The Cú has THE drop that me and my body will never forget, but the tracks are so loud. >The smaller ones are mighty, eg. Flight school and Air race. They're good for the family but bring the same joy as the others. >I miss when Tayto owned the park as they would give you free crisps after you went. But what I do appreciate about the new ownership is the addition of Tír na nÓg. I liked the Quest, the Celtic Dreamer was average at best, but Na Fianna Force was so good I went twice, even with a torn ACL. My leg felt stable even though it is a suspended coaster. >It seems the junior zone is fun for little kids, as it was for me when I was small. At my grown age, I still like the Pony Monorail. >The food is exquisite. I loved them swirly chips around a stick, and dont even get me started on The Lodge. It's a big wooden carvery that serves great dishes for a large volume of people. Their chips are amazing, and I like their breaded chicken, especially the Parmigiana. Love, love, love. >The staff are lovely. They are usually young people who initiate a bit of friendly talk before the ride starts. I think they are very chill. One thing is, the rides take a good 5-10 minutes to let people in and secure. >The one star taken away from my review is just from personal interactions. The clientele can be really shabby, as the teenagers are cheeky and just some strange people around the park. Overall, I really like the one and only theme park in Ireland.

Lovely guide tour ! The guide was very passionate about the history of the house and it was very informative. She also was very nice waiting for me and showing me where I could seat, since I have a disability and walk with a cane. The gardens and the lake are stunning and a great place to sit and relax.

Beautiful House and Gardens with guided tours of the main building, a former home of the Guinness family currently owned by the Irish state, used to host foreign dignitairies and heads of state. The artworks such as a bust of King Charles I, angst-filled Francis Bacon artworks, and large painting of a buck cornered by wolves on the seashore cast a subtle yet firm reminder of Irish history for those who visit (forgive not forget!)—I appreciated our tour guide Therese who shared many interesting stories about the paintings, decor, and history of the place. The walled garden and grounds are quite beautiful and definitely worth visit for art, history, and design lovers! Thank you xoxo

I went to Farmleigh and really liked it. It’s a quiet and pretty place inside Phoenix Park. I walked around and saw lahmas and sheeps, really nice. I also visited the big house. It’s old and beautiful. A guide showed us the rooms and told stories about the Guinness family who lived there. The library was amazing,full of old books. After the tour, I had a coffee at the café and sat outside. It was calm and relaxing. There weren’t too many people, which made it even nicer. I think it is a nice place if you like nature and a bit of history.

Food at the boathouse restaurant was delicious and pretty views of the lake under canvas seating to the side. The moments of movements exhibition I went to see that day was a space to take a breath for oneself and just be present, artist Yeoung A Yeo has an amazing talent of bringing to life a moment which happen in the blink of an eye, very special collection. The grounds are always very peaceful, clean and well kept. I have yet to take a tour of the house but have been to events here in the past and always enjoy my time.

So glad we went for a house tour. It was privately owned until 1999, now is still used by Government for meetings, lunches and place to stay for visiting dignitaries (on those days tours are limited or cancelled). Fabulous library with oldest book from 1285! Old bibles, first edition of Ulyssess, book about farting... Few secrets, hidden door, or fake book shelf hiding stone stairs to basement vault. Tricky chairs that will pin you down, until someone lifts the lever at the back. Supper interesting history of Guiness family, the brewers branch, who loved Irish traditional music, collecting carriages and bringing interesting items and trends to Ireland.. like a window with stunning view above the...fireplace! Ceiling in a study was painted when one of residents got sick and had to spend alot of time in bed in that room. Swifts and blues skies. Stunning (and funny) tapestries, art, various collections.... I'd recommend booking tickets in advance, then you have to go to the desk in courtyard to check in, and go back to front of the house for tour. No big backpacks (you can leave them at the desk), and no food / drinks allowed.

My daughter (4 going on 40) and I come here regularly - she loves the hot chocolate and the Gluten Free desserts are beautiful. Would recommend the Rasberry and Chocolate Brownie Cheesecake - seriously good! The staff are amazing, so accommodating and welcoming. Finally, the setting is so tranquil. A favourite spot of ours. Here’s my daughter’s review using emojis- 🏆🥇🏆🥇🥇🏆🐣🐣

Love Farmleigh it’s one of my favourite places for a walk. There is always something going on from Art exhibits to markets. They make a great effort for holidays like Halloween and Christmas. One of my favourite things is the “national days” in the summer this year Japan Day and Korea Day were especially good with great events and food to try. The parking is very good and accessible. It’s very dog friendly but they are strict about having your dog on a lead as there are donkeys, sheep, llamas, horses, cows and peacocks all living on the property. The gardens are expertly maintained especially the walled garden with beautiful flowers as well as fruit and veg all year

Great course, with some amazing views. Very long and hilly though, I'd love to go back for a round... But only if I rent a buggy this time 😅 it's tough and very challenging, probably more suited to low h/c golfers. Bring plenty of balls with you as it's basically surrounded by water.

Great views from the restaurant, golf course is a good challenge and food was above excellent

Love love love this place. Possibly one of the best courses I've played in Ireland, the course and its scenery is phenomenal. Plus going by the price of golf along the north coast it is dirt cheap. Club house is gloriously set up above the course and the staff, food and the guiness are fantastic. Well worth the trip for any golfer.

Went to The View for Easter Lunch. The views are spectacular and the restaurant is very comfortable. Food was acceptable but dissapointing for the images seen on the website. Expected a more upmarket dining experience but alas was not. Cutlery needs replacing (this type you expect in canteen, not a restaurant).

Beautiful setting lovely bistro staff were chatty.

Great course in a magnificent setting 😍⛳️

Lovely golf course would play every week if I could

Best thing we did in Ireland. Highly recommend! The site and the whole experience was fantastic. Our tour guides were amazing, too. The opportunity to enter the ancient tunnel and go 20 meters in to the central room and burial chambers was unforgettable. It’s a mystery with many questions left unanswered. There’s also dozens of Neolithic/Megalithic art carvings in stone surrounding the tombs. Visitors centre was great. Loved it all!! A must see IMHO 👀 Enjoy!!

This place is truly amazing and full of history. I don’t think many people, even those living in Ireland, know about it. It feels like time travel—taking you back 5,300 years. It’s one of the oldest man-made structures on Earth and is very well protected. Make sure to book your tickets online before visiting. It’s absolutely worth more than what you pay. All the guides are wonderful and explained everything thoroughly throughout the tour. We loved it so much and learned a lot from the experience.

Incredible experience! Allowed inside for an amazing recreation of the solstice. Whole experience really well curated and taken in small groups by bus to ensure it's never busy. Guide informative.

Fantastic place to visit. Great system of shuttles and guides are lovely with great knowledge. You must book ahead on website you cannot just turn up and get in. We'll worth visiting

As a tour guide who has visited Amazing Historical site for over 20 years as a private guide Newgrange and knowth never fails to Amaze me. I think anyone that comes to Ireland and doesn't visit these sites and this Magical and mystical Boyne Valley region. The Visitor centre is one of the best in Europe also.

Incredible experience. Our guide Sinéad was brilliant, and her use of Irish throughout the tour made it particularly special. The moment where the tomb lights up was surprisingly emotional. A must-see.

We did Newgrange and Knowth. Definitely cool but I much preferred the stone circles. They seemed more natural/untouched. These sites are extensively rebuilt - which is great to save what we can. They just didnt give any vibes at all. Maybe too many people. Sept 9, 2024. I missed Broadleas and Athgreany to see this and its one of my biggest regrets of the trip. 2nd trip we did Broadleas but Athgreany is closed indefinitely.

I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but was very happy to discover that there was a timed, guided tour with limited numbers. There's a chance to look around the visitors centre before you board a private bus to the first stop - Nowth. The tour was about an hour long, but the time went very quickly - despite the awful weather. Next stop was Newgrange. Again we had plenty of time to listen to the guide and take photographs. The highlight was being given entrance to the middle of the tomb and seeing the skill that went into making it. Wonderful, humbling experience. Well worth making the trip and very good value for money. Compared to Stonehenge, it's much better. Better value, more interesting, proper guided tours, plenty of opportunities to take pictures and limited to small groups. Stonehenge is, in comparison, almost £30 each; packed like sardines onto a bus; told to 'move along' when you do get to the stones and no guide.

Super neat place that supposedly pre dates the pyramids. The tour guides were really knowledgeable and cracked a few puns. Very neat to see all the ancient pictographs, and view some of the symbols that are present all over Ireland. I really enjoyed this visit. Perfect weather when we went.

You cannot miss visiting this UNESCO World Heritage site. Book ahead otherwise you won’t get in. Book via the dedicated website. It’s simply amazing to see and have the guide tell you about civilisations Neolithic and 3200BC. It’s the oldest site I’ve ever done.

Great place to visit, young and old. From petting the animals and feeding the sheep, holding day old chick's, Plenty of space for children to run around. Play areas for children too.

Newgrange is an amazing site to behold. So ancient and mind blowing. Keep an eye on the weather. We did Knowth on our tour and it was very wet and mainly outside. Shout out to Tour guide Suzy, she’s so passionate about landscape archeology. She’s very knowledgeable and good looking and wish I could have got her number. Good stuff!!

WOW, what hisory this place holds! spectacular countryside. very good tour gide. book in advance !

A piece of prehistorical history. It's really impressive how these structures came to us across the millennia. There is a visitor center with an interesting exhibition. You can choose different kinds of guided tours: only new Grange or also knowth and sought. Sometimes, as for us, you can't visit the tumulus inside. Very good experience.

A beautiful park beside St Patrick’s Cathedral. A free option if you don’t have a ticket inside the cathedral itself. The aura of the place is pleasant. Don’t rush it and sit and relax. Will come back to this place if I have time again

We had a guided tour and this park was our meeting place. It was beautiful and neatly kept. Lots of families and dogs. Cool fountain in the middle. Located next to St Patrick’s cathedral. Nice potential for cool photos. On a couple of homeless guys so it felt safe. We were there at the end of October and the grass was still amazing!

It was a lovely day today. So I went to the park. It's a great park between two Historic churches. Christ Church and St. Patrick's Cathedral. If the weather is nice. You can happily spend a day in this park.

A serene slice of Dublin history with cathedral views and joyful vibes St Patrick’s Park is an absolute gem tucked beside the majestic St. Patrick’s Cathedral. Not only does it offer postcard-perfect views of Ireland’s largest church, but it’s steeped in meaningful history. The park was generously gifted to the city by the Guinness family in the early 20th century—a philanthropic gesture that transformed what was once a neglected area into a peaceful haven for locals and visitors alike. The grounds are beautifully maintained, with lush lawns, vibrant flowerbeds, and elegant fountains that add a touch of grace to every corner. There are plenty of spots to relax, read, or enjoy a picnic, and the little outdoor café is a delightful bonus—perfect for a coffee and a moment of reflection. We visited on a sunny day, and the atmosphere was pure joy: children laughing, couples strolling, and friends soaking up the sunshine. It felt like the heart of Dublin was smiling. If you're looking for a tranquil spot with rich heritage and a view that stirs the soul, St Patrick’s Park is a must.

Wonderful park. Got lucky as weather was really beautiful. Nice and multiple spots to sit. Closer to Christ Church Cathedral.

Such a beautiful park. Very simple with a beautiful outlook overlooking the cathedral as well as a lot of flowers and shrubbery. It was very peaceful and not that crowded and a lot of benches for me to set even though there were people filling up the park. So beautiful on a sunny day I definitely recommend to visit for a nice little stroll

We took a stroll through St. Patrick's Park to see the famous St. Patrick's Cathedral from the outside. It is an amazing building with such unique architecture and awesome spires. The Cathedral is the national cathedral of the Church of Ireland. The gardens in the park are so beautiful and so well groomed. I highly recommend a visit to St. Patrick's Park in Dublin, Ireland.

The Irish Military Museum is an absolute treasure. The collection is incredibly impressive, covering a huge range of military history with real depth and detail. Every exhibit is thoughtfully curated, and you can tell how much passion has gone into creating such a fascinating experience. Whether you're a history buff or just curious, there's something here for everyone. The staff are knowledgeable and welcoming, making the visit even better. I highly recommend a trip — you’ll come away amazed and wanting to return!

What a great gem. 2.5 hrs walk around when inside look up look down look everywhere, you will miss something. It's an amazing museum lots of history exhibited in one place. Try on uniforms guns sit in different vehicles it's really interactive for children. Friendly staff very knowledgeable. Loved it so did the family. We would have stayed longer only I got hungry. Pitched our bell tent out back in the campsite and used this as our base for the weekend. Lovely quite spot and would recommend. Thanks again collon for everything.

OMG!!! This place was amazing! I saw artifacts that I never DREAMED that I would have the opportunity to ever see let alone touch in my life. Wonderful display everything you can think of. Support local...visit this museum.

First time visiting absolutely brilliant highly recommended if you're interested in history the owner is first class with information on history of ww1 & ww2 absolute gentleman.👍👍👍 will visit again.

Amazing war museum and very informative descriptions on all exhibits. Reasonable entry fee and car parking. Very nice owner who has collected everything. Definitely recommended!

Cool museum , also has camping, 20 euros a night, not much more than a safe place to sleep, bathrooms could use some cleaning !

Very impressive collection thoughtfully displayed. Owner was very friendly and knowledgeable. Definitely worth a vist

Brilliant, very Big! Wish they had this in the North of Ireland. Went to watch the NFL match. Pitsburgh Steelers vs Minnesota Vikings. first time a proper NFL league match had ever been played in Croke Park Dublin. Journey has a lot of traffic but wasn't the worst.

Croke Park is one of Dublin’s most iconic landmarks — a place where history, culture, and energy come alive. Known for hosting unforgettable sporting events, massive concerts, and top-class conferences, it captures the true spirit of Ireland. With its impressive design, vibrant atmosphere, and world-class facilities, Croke Park is more than a stadium — it’s a symbol of Dublin’s heart and pride.

We did the Skyline - Halloween special, Tales from the Pale - fantastic both stories and views. Book your ticket in advance and wrap up because its windy. Something we always said we'd do well worth it, views spectacular.

Amazing atmosphere. The seats are very close together and the concessions are overpriced, but we had so much fun we didn't care. There is no parking at or near the stadium. 75,000 people walked in and walked out

Wonderful experience getting into and out of Croke Park. They have large crowds down. Both the bathrooms and food concessions could be improved. Many concessions were out of items before the game started. There were long lines to some dingy bathrooms! We had a great time!!

Croke Park is a must-visit if you’re in Dublin. We did the stadium tour, which was really interesting and gave a great sense of Ireland’s sports history. We even came back another time for the St. Patrick’s Day events, and it was a lot of fun—such a lively atmosphere!

Odd set up could only purchase beer/cider or water on the ground/pitch level which isnt a great option when you didn't drink beer / cider. Could buy various options food and drink wise up a level but couldn't bring it down. Was in the accessible section which was perfectly situated, sounds was on point (Robbie Williams gig) however still had to go out to main bar / food area which was very awkward the more the ground level filled up! A mini bar option in that section to avoid having to keep coming out and back again / trying to get through the crowds with a wheelchair would be even better. But staff were all approachable and helpful. Lack of stars is due to lack of options drinks wise jist because you are on the pitch

Beautiful design. Extravagant mosaics all over the place. Quiet contemplation a must when you visit. Two hundred years old and still perfect.

What a breathtaking church. It’s hard not walk alone this magnificent church without being in total awe. Photos cannot give justice to how beautiful this monumental church is. If you’re stopping by definitely drop in. We were fortunate enough to experience the pipe organ playing while we were there and it made the experience so the more awesome. Definitely worth seeing. This is the catholic cathedral. Both st Patrick’s are incredible and worth seeing.

Such a beautiful church and lovely grounds. The view of the town below was breath taken. The stain glass windows were the best I have ever seen. So many little details all over the church.

Stayed in Armagh for a few nights , it's true what they say about this being a town full of impressive churches, this possibly being the most impressive of the bunch. I can only vouch for the outside as the evening was late and was all closed up. The Cathedral, although smaller than most others that you would class as Cathedrals. Grounds are pleasant enough to walk around, although no flat, the Church is perched upon a hill, so that the town can look up and worship the true majesty of the Lord , with the steps of attrition leading up to worship .... cor religion , it's so full of itself , if it wasn't for the buildings I'd have nothing to do with it !

Beautiful large elaborate cathedral with unending mosaics on the floor and the walls in addition to tall detailed stain glass windows. Lofty arches lead to more art work which ceiling angels watch over. A definite must see. Outside three tombs Cardinal Conway, one in Latin, and one in Irish. I do wish they had a small placard so I knew who the others were.

A very impressive building and the artwork in the ceiling is particularly worth checking out. Lots of lost stories about Irish saints hidden up there. There is no doubt but that the building was designed to impress. It is set on a hill surveying the surrounding countryside. As was typical in the 19th and early 20th centuries it is a neo-Gothic design.

A majestic cathedral has gathered clergy and history! I was pleasantly fascinated by my visit there. Amazing view of the city from above.

A nice church and grounds. The grounds house some interesting tombs and some sculptures along its rear wall, you can walk all the way around the church and there is parking near by, cheers

Saint Peter's Church a beautiful Ireland. beautiful architecture, including a distinctive spire. The Church is an important landmark attracting people from the town for prayer and worship. It also is a major attraction for people visiting the town.

We had just come from visiting Newgrange and wanted to walk around and find some restaurants. Walking down the road and stumbling onto this magnificent structure was certainly unexpected. This is worth seeing first hand!

Church was closed but the cemetery is full of history - I came here after going on a guided tour at the Martello Tower at Millmount Museum, from which I learned about the Cadaver Stones, a memento Mori from the Middle Ages. See pictures.

St Patrick's church is in the center of town and cannot be missed with the spectacular spire to help locate it. The church is lovely and a beautiful building. The interior, like most churches is very relaxed and a respectful, ambient athmosphere. The exhibits are very well explained and the story is detailed in exhibits. There is also a relic of the true cross which is quite interesting. Definitely worth a visit if in the area.

I visited this church to attend a concert. The musicians were top and the acoustics excellent. But the church itself was so beautifully kept and decorated that made a fantastic backdrop for the concert.

Lovely

We visited Armagh Planetarium on a Sunday with our two boys (ages 4 and 9) and had a fantastic experience. The atmosphere was calm and not crowded, which made it really enjoyable to explore at our own pace. We spent nearly 3 hours there and found it to be the perfect amount of time — the exhibition isn't huge, but it's just the right size to keep kids engaged without overwhelming or tiring them out. One of the highlights for us was the fantastic sensory room. It’s full of interactive features and hands-on activities, and the kids especially loved the chance to dress up like astronauts! The Dome Show was definitely the standout moment of our visit — an amazing experience that I’d highly recommend booking in advance. There’s also a small café on-site offering coffee, snacks, and even ice cream — perfect for a short break. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. We had originally booked our tickets in advance, but one of our sons was unwell on the morning of our visit. A quick phone call was all it took to reschedule to another date, free of charge, which we really appreciated. Overall, Armagh Planetarium is a brilliant day out for families with young kids — fun, educational, and very well run!

An afternoon out for £32?! You don’t usually get that any more. Free parking, it is small but you can park on the street. Show was good, exhibition content was limited, but it’s not a global observatory. Kids loved the rocket workshop, and dressing up. Worth the trip if you’re within an hour to Armagh.

As a child it was something I never got to do (It was just 1 of those things) Now I have been able to take my own kids who are fascinated by the planets and space in general. Both are autistic & had an absolute blast that they didn't really want to leave. The dome show was worth booking and launching their own rockets to dressing up they loved every minute! Very much a fun day out, and a walk round the astro park after helped calm everything down for the trip back home!

Fun and educational place to be with the lil ones, where you can also dress up as a astronaut. Also, there is a different show every hour in the dome space - will recommend to check the website prior booking as not all of them are suitable for the kids aged 5 or lesser.

The dome screening is a bit outdated, blurry etc could use a little investment, seems very busy so seems a reasonable, financially viable solution. I feel a warning should be in place for vertigo sufferers as the screening itself was enjoyable but the part where it simulated being on a roller coaster left me with an episode of vertigo allday & a long 2hr drive home. The cafe could use some food that isn’t heavily processed sugary food considering it is a family focused experience. Overall, pleasant & the narrator was highly enthusiastic and welcoming. The website is confusing however, it takes you to a section called dome shows & I bought an allday ticket for us but this doesn’t include a ticket to… you guessed it, the dome shows….

An absolutely wonderful place for a dogwalk. Due to the multiple routes you can really vary things up. Only a couple of bins however, but if you're smart with your route it's not a huge bother when you need to drop off your dog's makings for the day. The groundskeeper is exceptionally friendly.

I visited the Observatory as an adult with other adults- and, from this perspective it is quite disappointing. I am saying this as a person who loves Observatories and would like to attend more often. Generally a place with great potential, it seems to be mainly focused on children. I think there should be separate shows for adults, containing more information on an adult level, and separate ones for kids. They should be properly marked as such, so that the audience would know which one is which. I don’t believe it is only kids who are interested in astronomy or Space exploration. I know from similar places in other countries that it is entirely possible to achieve the distinction and make it fascinating for older age groups as well. P.s. The gallery space is interesting, I have learned some things there, fair enough. But the shows- adults deserve better!

Me and my Family had an absolutely fantastic experience at Dundalk Racing Stadium! From start to finish, everything was handled with professionalism and genuine care. A special mention has to go to Laura—her communication in the lead-up to the event was second to none. She made the whole process smooth and stress-free, and her attention to detail didn’t go unnoticed. On the night, the floor staff were outstanding. They couldn’t do enough for us—always on hand, friendly, and going out of their way to make sure everyone had a brilliant time. It really made the experience even more enjoyable. The stadium itself is a great venue, and when it’s matched with this level of service, it makes for a truly memorable night out. Highly recommend for a night at the races!

Visited Dundalk Stadium for the first time for dog racing and had a great evening! The atmosphere is amazing — lively, exciting, and full of energy. There’s plenty of free car parking, which is a big plus. On the ground floor, there’s a takeaway café — handy for a quick bite, but the food was quite plain, with no seasoning or much flavour. Upstairs there’s a full restaurant with panoramic views of the track; we didn’t try it this time, but it’s definitely on the list for our next visit. The stadium is clean, well-organised, and offers both greyhound and horse racing events. Great facilities, bars, and plenty of seating. I hope that next time we’ll have a bit more knowledge about dog racing itself — for now, we just enjoyed the spectacle!

Dundalk provides a key outlet for Irish racing, so that I am sure is important, and I think it would be a good place for a company outing. The greyhound racing just with horses instead of greyhounds felling is just not for me.

A few of us went here for a night out. Had the carvery(very tasty) on arrival and then a few pints and bets. Lots of tote facilities and also the traditional bookmakers available.Thankfully came out ahead on the betting

Very good but a little quiet

I brought 29 passengers and they had a brilliant time

It's set a very handy place looks very good

We recommend with all our hearts, very nice service,great staff, answered all questions, fitted bikes without a problem. Very well equipped. We rented one electric bike and one regular bike which was a mistake but next time we come back we already know to take only electric. They helped to establish the Ring of Gulion route. Breathtaking views. A place worth recommending. The children were happy. We had a successful day. Beside is bakery so after a ride you can have delicious Cappuccino and some pastries.

Hired 5 electric bikes for my family to enjoy the Ring of Gullion hills and the wonderful views painlessly. A brilliant experience, enjoyed every minute of it. Excellent, expert staff who explained everything well to help us on our way. Would recommend them 100%.

The owners and the lads who work there are absolute gents — friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely go out of their way to help. Whether it’s advice, repairs, or just a chat about bikes, they make you feel welcome every time. Great range of gear and brilliant customer service. Couldn’t recommend them highly enough!

Rented three electric bikes for 3 hours. The bikes were very well maintained and the electric bikes made the large hills in joy able and not to hard on legs but still getting in good exercise because the paddles make the electric motor go. The shop was amazing James was super helpful and friendly and give us an awesome route for the 3 hours on an app on are phone so it was very easy to follow and he was just a really nice and kind man. Ring of Gullion cycles was the highlight of my trip to the area. Highly recommend to anyone of any fitness fitness level.

Cycle Testimonial Thank you Ring of Gullion Cycles for your outstanding service and a wonderful experience during our recent visit. Despite the fact that a neighbourhood power blackout forced you to close early you still honoured our booking. The two e-bikes provided were in mint condition and fully charged and as well as helmet and high-vis, you kindly provided bike clips when asked. On top of that there was helpful advice on local routes. As a life-long manual cyclist I’ve always had a slight disdain of e-bikes but after this experience I’m converted!

We had an outstanding experience with Slieve Gullion Bike Rental! The customer service was second to none, and the pricing was very reasonable. They were incredibly accommodating, and the whole experience was just perfect. We rented the e-bikes for three hours and explored the beautiful Slieve Gullion mountain in Armagh. A special shoutout to James, who was knowledgeable, more than accommodating, and just an all-around top guy. The experience couldn't have been better. Highly recommend!

Super service, bike puncture fixed in minutes while we enjoyed a delicious breakfast in cafe next door

This heritage location is a must-visit. While the Google Maps show the closing time as 5 PM, it’s best to arrive before 4 PM to secure a spot. The entry fee is €12 per adult, and a guided tour pack is available from the reception. It’s an ideal spot to soak up the sunlight, with the mills visible from outside the compound wall. There’s also a beautiful park for kids and a lovely cafeteria that closes at 5 PM. This place is perfect for families, children, and history buffs. The photos which i am sharing here is captured from outside the compound wall.

We came on a Sunday morning with the kids and it was quite empty. We got a family tour all to ourselves which was quite nice. It was very informative and there was more to see than just mill related technology. The tour was quite technical though I found that at times it was difficult for the children to follow (aged 5,7,9) The highlight was definitely powering the watermill and seeing the inside wheels turn. The playground outside was also a nice reward for the kids 😅

Our tour guide was great and very knowledgeable. He answered all of our questions, took his time and was also funny. We had a great time! (The gift shop and cafe are also wonderful!)

We visited Skerries Mills recently and had a lovely experience. The guided tour was informative and gave great insight into the history of the windmills and watermill. The surroundings are peaceful, and the café was a perfect spot to relax afterward. A charming place that’s definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!

Had a lovely time here. We did the tour with Alex. He was AMAZING. Knowledgeable, hilarious, and personable. We learned a lot, had a relaxing day, enjoyed the café and had a wonderful walk through the town. Highly recommend making a trip out here

It was worth every penny . Great informative guided tour. 2 wind mills and water mill. Still in operation or videos shown how they work. Food is great in their cafe . Nice play area for kids . Designated parking for EV cars tht was something new .

Our visit to Skerries Mills was an absolute delight. We did a tour with Alex at 4pm (their last tour of the day) and had an amazing time. It was such a lovely mix of interesting historical facts, humour and beautiful views - we will surely be back next time family is visiting. Do stop by here if you're in Skerries and do yourself a favor and grab some lunch before or after your tour at they café - they have amazing food and coffee.

Awesome tour! Genuinely so much fun and plenty of crisps to snack on while you're going around. Josh was a brilliant tour guide.

Really good, we thoroughly enjoyed it. The tour guides were fantastic and the freebies were amazing. Highly recommended.

Brilliant tour with Josh, very informative and great craic. You get plenty of crisp tastings, so don't come on a full stomach, and you get plenty to take away with you. Be sure to read the email on the dress code before you attend.

This was so fun!! Katrina was our tour guide and she was great. Really friendly, good fun and heaps of interesting facts. This is a really great tour, you get to sample lots and you'll probably walk away with a packet or two. Seems like a good company and they have done a few things to lessen their carbon footprint. Our kids had an absolute blast.

Highly recommend this tour,the guides were top notch,they were informative and entertaining.It seems like our favourite crisps are manufactured in a very happy environment.

We had a great time with josh, enjoyed tasting all the crisps, tour guides were very knowledgeable and didn't feel like we missed any part of the process. Free crisps at the end very much appreciated, a greater selection of freebies and a bit more show and tell of the frying room and popcorn would have been great.

A fantastic day out at Tayto tours. It was amazing to see behind the scenes of the crisp/snack factory and get lots of samples on the way. Our tour guide Josh was brilliant, very informative and good fun. All of the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Well worth a visit for something completely different!
