Excellent fun centre that seems to have all a child needs. There is kids party's, lasser tag, bowling, food, arcade games, swimming. Climbing cage, etc. Parking is good and the staff are very nice. My childhood had a fantastic time.

First problem is parking, just not enough. The water park, changing rooms are roasting but the water park is cold ,it should really be warmer especially for toddlers,if the water park was hotter,it would be a thoroughly enjoyable experience but it's just too cold . There's one Jacuzzi between a lot of adults which is unfortunate. Lifeguards are on top of things and take there job seriously ,it's good to see they take the responsibility of there job with seriousness. It's great craic for the kids but it's only downfall is the temperature. The arcade and bowling and VR area is enjoyable and there's many things to do and enjoy here . The restaurant is flat out all day,food is quality and tasty,the staff are ran off there feet . The staff all over are very friendly and helpful,any questions I asked were answered,The toilets were always clean and someone was walking around disinfecting handles and cleaning glass . I would recommend funtasia for a great day out for the family, just arrive early and go with the flow.

Family time! :) Great place. Lots and lots of entertainment. Pool and slides.. and bowling and arcade and ton of activities for kids. Tips.. Arrive just when opens to get most of it. Staff friendly and helpful. Place well organised. Plan.. book tickets.. and take your kids and go.

Had wonderful day with the kids. Top quality amusement machines and rides. Great to see Helter Skelter slide outside.

This is our first and last time at Funtasia. We are from the States. We have many arcades like Funtasia there. We have never been so ripped off by an arcade like we were here. The games are rigged against the children that play them. I saw no child actually win from the E claw machines. When my child did win from an e claw ticket machine, the door to her prize would not open. We waited 10 minutes for an employee to get her her tickets. On a positive note, the place was clean. I do not recommend.

Lovely experience with my daughter! We had such a fantastic time at Funtasia Drogheda. My daughter was absolutely thrilled — from the water park to the arcade, every moment was fun and memorable. The staff were friendly and helpful, and there were plenty of activities to keep kids entertained for hours. A perfect spot for family bonding and laughter. We’ll definitely be back!

I am giving it 3 stars because I felt that the water area was too small and more suitable for children up to the age of 3. For adults, there are only 2 slides and nothing else. Most of the rides outside are also mainly for small children. There’s a nice café and they also serve food, but it would have been better if there were some activities for adults as well.

Only a small portion of the hike is open at the moment--maybe 1km? It's still a nice walk down to the closed off section. The views are quite lovely. There are still a handful of picnic tables throughout the path that would be nice for a bite or a rest. I really hope they get it fixed soon.

Absolutely stunning walk with breathtaking views! The Bray Cliff Walk is a must-do if you're in the area. Starting from Newcourt, the trail is well-marked and fairly easy, making it perfect for all fitness levels. You'll be treated to panoramic views of the Irish Sea, rugged cliffs, and even some wildlife if you're lucky. It can get windy, so bring a light jacket, and wear comfortable shoes—parts of the path can be uneven. Great for a peaceful solo walk, a day out with friends, or even a casual date. Highly recommend timing it around sunset for that extra wow factor! There are a lot of amenities for play, food and entertainment. Huge car park, free on Sundays. If you’re lucky over the long weekends you might able to ride fun fair to enjoy with your kids. Many picnic tables and spots, for a perfect picnic out with your loved ones.

Worth the walk and quite the view! Best to wear good shoes for a strenuous walk with a vertical accent and decent. It gets warm toward the top on a sunny day. Consider wearing layers.

Very nice walk which can be adapted in disitance with different routes and there's even 2 small mountains with great panoramic views if you go just a little 5 mins detour!

• Bray Head Cross – A short but steep hike up from the Bray end gives panoramic views of the Irish Sea, Bray town, and the Wicklow Mountains. • Cliff Views – The trail hugs the coastline, with dramatic sea cliffs, seabirds, and sometimes even dolphins offshore. • Greystones – Lovely seaside town at the end of the walk with cafes, restaurants, and a DART station for the return trip.

Bray head offers some superb views all across Dublin bay, its a nice climb and the cross at the summit offer even more lovely walks and from higher up you get better views all 360 of Dublin, Shankill, Dalkey, Wicklow and the little and large Sugarloaf, cheers

Fantastic place for a walk. Close to city, good public transport. Perfect way to spend weekend days

Fantastic place to visit and learn about the history of the land. Plenty to do in the area, with lovely walks nearby. If you’re staying in Dublin, you can easily combine this with a visit to Newgrange and Slane Castle for a full day out.

The house is closed , the visitor centre is small but good , the gardens are beautiful and the coffee shops good too. Plenty if choices of treats . Lovely place for relaxing and nice walks

The site is beautifully preserved and presented. The walled gardens a treat for the senses. The volunteer who explained the history, Margaret, was enthusiatic and knowledgable and held her audience's rapt attention. The visitor centre staff were most helpful too. The tea rooms offered a pleasant array of fresh, well prepared food; however one of the servers was obviously not having a good day and was quite short with my elderly companion and the coffee was less than palatable, the only blot on an otherwise delightful experience.

If you are a battlefield tourist, as I am, this should be on your list. That said, it’s about the oddest one I’ve visited. Despite the name, this is really a stately home, with nice gardens that happens to be where the battle of the Boyne took place. There’s a courtyard with examples of artillery, and a good video on the battle. But the field itself is almost unsignposted and even the trails have no explanatory signage. It’s almost as if they are embarrassed about what happened there. When I asked someone in the ‘visitor centre’ where I should go he asked ‘what do you want to see?’. Slightly taken aback I said ‘the battlefield’. He sent me to see the film (which is good, as I say) then to the walled garden! The contrast with the excellent battlefield centre at Aughrim is striking. The latter does everything very well on what I would guess is a far smaller budget than the Boyne has.

Impressive mansion, gardens, battlefield and coffee shop. Excellent video reenactment of the famous battle. Visitor Centre closed for our visit so free admission and a face-to-face history lesson by a lovely staff member

I had an amazing visit to the Battle of the Boyne Visitor Centre at Oldbridge Estate. The centre is located right on the historic battlefield where King William III and King James II faced off in 1690—a turning point in Irish and British history. the exhibitits ,cannons are nicely restored and displayed ,lot of religious context to the war shown in its neutrality. The visual cinema was excellent The Octagon Garden symmetrical with the 9 English Yew trees which are the few of the oldest in Ireland. Infact English Yew trees are the most known oldest trees on earth.Well Kept lavender gardens, the Apple orchards, Dog Kennels,Peach tree enclosure, Lush Open greenery and places to sit for a picnic at the open gardens The views over the river and battlefield are stunning, and walking the trails gave me a real sense of the landscape that shaped the events of the battle. The staff were friendly, and everything was well-kept, beautifully restored and managed by OPW and clearly marked

Beautiful place to vist the walk around its beautiful and well maintained the cannons were great to look at and a good place for any person into history or a family day out

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

Stunning hotel. Beautiful bars, restaurant and lounges with real fires. Bathroom in our suite very dated and the wall coverings have seen better days ( covered in marks and looked shabby). Customer service exceptional.

Loved every minute of our stay, all the staff from the front desk to the restaurant and the pool/ health centre were so helpful and friendly. We spent our 5th anniversary here and they gave us a complimentary room upgrade which was followed by a hand delivered, hand written note and some chocolates to congratulate myself and my girlfriend. Can’t wait to go back and can’t thank all the people involved enough.

A big thank-you to Tanya, Aisling and Joe for making our stay extra special. All the staff were kind and accommodating, the food was delicious, and the hotel and rooms were lovely. The trail walk could be improved, as it runs mostly around the (not so lovely) perimeter of the grounds, while the golf course looks spectacular!

This place is more of a 2 star hotel. This is the opposite of a 5 star experience. When I checked in the lady just handed me my card, no information about the hotel, breakfast, activities, the gym, or even pointed me towards the elevator. The room was a mess, very dirty stains all over the carpet, mirrors all over the room that have never been cleaned, mold all over the shower, stains all over the walls, spider webs in the corners. When I went to take a shower the drain was not working properly and I was standing in several inches of water and had to keep turning the shower water off because it was overflowing into the bathroom. And the shower water kept going ice cold when I was in there. Was perfect temp then would go ice cold, boiling, then back to normal. Was told someone would clean the bathroom and fix the hot water the next day but as no surprise no one came to fix anything ever. Stains all over the public carpets. Not 5 stars at all. No hair conditioner provided. No bubble bath or anything for the bathtub. Took 24 minutes and 5 phone calls to get someone to answer the phone to order room service on a Monday afternoon. Every time I call down for extra towels or help with something it rings and rings and rings and rings and no one ever answers. Went to breakfast and went to the buffet. No one welcomed me or anything. Then I notice the table next to me ordering food from a waiter. No one brought me a menu of food to order and I wasn’t told that was an option.the table they put me at also had lots of fresh stains on the tablecloth. The gym is less than 1 star. Disgusting dirty facilities. They don’t tell guests it’s open to the public so it was packed and I couldn’t get any equipment to do any exercises. And it’s filthy, all the benches have holes and rips and tears, the weight matches are wobbly and one arm was broken when I tried to use the pill down machine. Finally got an elliptical and the resistance didn’t work. 2 containers of hand sanitizer there were empty when I tried to get some. It was absolutely filthy and never been cleaned, holes and stains and dents in the walls everywhere. Every bench has huge traits that they put rage over, same with bike seats they also taped over the huge tares. Saw they offered classes and tried to sign up several days in advance and was told all the classes I wanted were full already days in advanced by locals the guy told me. I’m a paying quest and no where in my reservation info didn’t say to sign up weeks in advance to beat the locals to a gym class. Ridiculous. No turn down service or anything to make this place 5 stars. No snacks or drinks in the room besides water. They don’t have the soft close doors so every door bangs closed day and night. The screaming children running around here are endless. There is no soundproofing between rooms at all, I can hear the kids next door screaming and yelling non stop. And WiFi kept going in an out all night . This whole facility is a joke. 5 stars, no way. This hotel just doesn’t care it’s that simple Don’t come here if you are looking for a relaxing time. The amount of kids here is overwhelming. Non stop kids running through the halls day and night, yes night screaming. The screaming in the hallway, the restaurant, everywhere just kids screaming. In the middle of the night I tried to call downstairs for assistance in the screaming kids running up and down the hallway and the phone rang and rang and rang and no one picked up at reception as usual.

The hotel is beautifully situated and there is a relaxing woodland walk (2 miles each way) around the site which is a great way to start the morning or to walk off the breakfast. Speaking of which, the breakfast is absolutely fantastic with a huge selection available each morning - as well as being able to request poached eggs which were delicious! The room itself was incredibly spacious and the bed was very comfortable resulting in a good sleep. The pillows in the room were a bit soft but when I requested firm ones, they were brought up within minutes. The bathroom is also a very good size with a decent shower and the availability of a bath. The service throughout the stay was fantastic with everyone going out of there way to ensure our needs were met and that everything was to our satisfaction. The only slight fault was when we ate in the bar on one of the evenings. The starters were excellent - although the portions were almost too generous for a beginning course. Unfortunately, the mains were not as enjoyable. This wasn't something we raised at the time and may just have been our own preferences and, to be fair, I am confident that had we raised concerns, the service staff would have done their best to resolve the issue. Location wise, the hotel has some narrow roads around it which can be a touch hairy at night time but there is access then to many stunning parts of Wicklow as well as being fairly close to Dublin. Overall, we had a great stay and we'll definitely return in the future. I'd 100% recommend this as a destination and, although we don't have children, it had lots of families staying and seemed very accommodating of children.

We recently hosted an event at Druids Glen and the experience from start to finish was nothing short of exceptional. From the very first enquiry, the team’s professionalism and attention to detail were evident. The meeting facilities are spacious and modern, allowing us to run things seamlessly across two separate spaces. The set-up was perfect and the food was superb and consistently praised by our delegates. The dinner was a real highlight, with sensational food that everyone thoroughly enjoyed. A special thanks to Damien, Sava and Robbie, who went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. Their warm welcome, efficiency, and ability to handle last-minute requests/changes with ease made a big difference - Nothing was too much trouble! Will definitely be returning!

Very nice hotel, staff excellent and friendly. Food was very good and they cater for kids. Rooms were clean and spacious with a lovely view I just thought the gents toilet doors let it down with squeaking noises and old hinges,also shower door handle was loose at the swimming pool and bench had rips throughout If they say its 5 star they should notice these small things. Overall I would rate this hotel and would definitely go back .

Trinity College is truly a beautiful and inspiring place. The historic architecture, especially the famous library, is breathtaking and full of character—it feels like stepping back in time. The campus is very well maintained, with plenty of open green spaces to relax or study.

Beautiful buildings and the park is well maintained. We had no chance to buy tickets for the Book of Kells Experience on site (it is recommended to buy in advance if anyone is interested in seeing the Library's famous Long Room!), but the buildings were still worth walking around. The gift shop is pretty much like anywhere else, but we saw at least two coffee trucks, so there's something to sip on while you walk. (I can't even imagine what it must be like to see so many tourists wandering around here with the students' eyes — while you're rushing to class, they're just shuffling in front of you to try to make the perfect photo. :D)

Lovely historical buildings. A great place to have a autumnal stroll around. Watch the sun glisten off the crisp autumn leaves. Check out their little shop and pop in and visit the Book of Kells. Great place.

Trinity College Dublin is breathtakingly beautiful, like walking through a living piece of history. The grand stone buildings and elegant courtyards create a calm, timeless atmosphere. Its famous Library, with towering wooden shelves, is a must-see for anyone visiting Dublin. Even a casual stroll across the cobbled squares feels special and serene. A place where classic architecture and lush green lawns make every visit memorable.

Trinity College Dublin is one of Ireland’s most iconic landmarks and a must-visit for anyone exploring the city. Founded in 1592, it combines centuries of academic prestige with stunning architecture and a lively student atmosphere. The campus grounds are open to the public, offering a peaceful escape from the busy streets of Dublin. Cobblestone courtyards, elegant Georgian buildings, and leafy quads make it a photographer’s dream.

It's one of the world's leading universities. The campus is so vast and beautiful. It's impossible not to dream of studying here. I think the only downside is that anyone can easily get in. Other than that, I loved the library. It has an incredibly charming atmosphere.

With its wealth of beautiful Georgian buildings, ample park spaces, and venerable old library, Trinity College is simply gorgeous. We were fortunate to see the campus bathed in sunlight on the Sunday in September that we stopped in for the Book of Kells Experience. Since the wait time before we could go into the library and see the Book of Kells was fairly long, we had the opportunity to walk into the college chapel and hear the choir rehearsing for the morning Eucharist, and then to sit on benches in the sun and enjoy the beauty all around us. Trinity is a must-see place if you're touring Dublin.

The whole experience was pretty well done. The best part of course seeing the Book of Kells. The library was incredible. Unfortunately most of the books were removed for renovation, but enough were still there to get the feel of it. The red building at the end was a full immersive experience - that made me dizzy and nauseous. I wish I could’ve purchased a ticket without the red building (just the book of Kells and the library), but the option wasn’t available. Recommend buying tickets online in advance to get your preferred timed entry.

A truly fascinating and culturally rich experience that offers a deep insight into one of Ireland’s greatest treasures. The Book of Kells Experience combines history, art, and spirituality in a beautifully curated exhibition that captures the skill and devotion of the monks who created this masterpiece over a thousand years ago. The exhibition itself is well laid out, with clear storytelling and impressive visuals that explain the creation of the manuscript and its incredible detail. The lighting, atmosphere, and overall presentation make it easy to appreciate both the artistry and the reverence behind the book. The short film at the start gives great context and helps visitors understand just how remarkable the work is. The real showstopper, however, is the Long Room Library — one of the most breathtaking spaces in Dublin, if not the world. Walking through it feels like stepping back in time. The scale, the scent of old wood and books, and the sheer sense of history are unforgettable. The only slight downside is that it can get quite busy, which makes it harder to take in the exhibits at your own pace. The display area for the Book of Kells itself is smaller than expected, and you don’t get much time to linger. A few more interactive or modern interpretive elements would really enhance the experience, especially for younger visitors or families. Still, this is an essential stop for anyone visiting Dublin — an inspiring reminder of Ireland’s deep scholarly and artistic heritage, and a beautifully preserved piece of world history. Well worth seeing once in a lifetime. 🇮🇪📖✨

Amazing. Do this. Go here. First of all, the place looks little phenomenal. Its really really interesting and super well built with tons of history and cool facts in every tiny crevice of the campus. And even better is that the tour guides know these details and they di give you a really good overview of everything. Additionally, the old library is a magnificent sight. With the atlas sculpture and the harp! Really really cool!

Well, I was expecting the place to be much bigger. I’m not sure why, but half of the library (bookshelves) was empty. The Book of Kells (I mean the book-artefact) is worth seeing – later there’s a 3D film projected on the wall with an explanation of its history. But the film is really slow… Later it is another film. Overall, the place is definitely worth a visit, but the price is really high – €20. In my personal opinion it should be cheaper. But defenetly whole Trinnity Collage area looks amazing.

Words are nit enough to describe how awesome it was and no photo dies the library’s scale justice. The tour in the 2nd building was very cool and interactive too. I liked the live statues and the films: both are very well put together and visually appealing. If you have enough time, try to go with a guide. And make sure to come early - it closes at 16.30.

Attending Trinity College was just an unforgettable experience for us. We've seen a lot of different libraries and tours, but it's just the atmosphere of science and Greece. We were very impressed. The tour is very interesting and exciting. Indeed, thank you for the opportunity to visit you. We recommend a must-visit in Dublin.

This experience was topping my Dublin bucket list and I was certainly not disappointed. Recommended for all history lovers. There are different price ranges in regards to the tickets, so you bettee have a look before you buy the first one you see. Friendly staff. Btw, it is not allowed to take photos of the Book itself, don't even try!

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.

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 really enjoyed this place! I went in knowing almost nothing about whiskey and left with a lot of knowledge - from the differences between Scottish and Irish whiskey to the production process, history, and fascinating historical details. The tour ends with a tasting, which was the perfect final touch. I definitely recommend visiting during your trip to Dublin - it’s fun, informative, and memorable.

Absolutely marvellous storytelling. Explained the history of Ireland and whiskey in a lively and entertaining manner. Guide was professional, informative, and well thought out. Surprised by the quality and one of the most enjoyable experience museum. PS. Absolutely worth the premium tour price tag, souvenir glass is lovely

informative, and full of Irish charm! The tour was really well done, and I learned so much about the history and craft of Irish whiskey. The tasting at the end was amazing — those whiskeys are strong but absolutely delicious! Highly recommend to anyone visiting Dublin. 🥃🇮🇪

It's a great experience! We went on a week day and got the Premium experience because we basically love Irish Whiskey and wanted to try 4 different whiskeys instead of 3. It's so worth it! You learn the story of the Irish whiskey in general, not just one brand, and it's interactive and fun. Our guide was Linda and she was so entertaining and so knowledgeable that it made our visit even greater. I definitely recommend it!!

I went here yesterday on the spur of the moment and it was fantastic! Lydia was our amazing tour guide. She was informative, engaging, and funny - I recommend bringing some cash to tip her, we sadly didn't have any. Great value for an hour tour and tasting, especially the premium tour as we got an extra drink and a glass to keep. There's also alcohol free prices if you're not drinking which is wonderfully inclusive. Highly recommend!

We visited The Whiskey Museum and took the cocktail-making class with Briein, and it was absolutely fantastic! We had a blast—mixing delicious drinks, learning fun new techniques, and laughing the entire time. It truly felt like hanging out with a great friend who also happens to be an amazing instructor. We can’t recommend this experience with Briein enough—you’ll love every minute of it!

We had a really fun and interesting experience! We did the Premium Tour with the tasting, and it was absolutely worth it. Andrew was a fantastic guide – knowledgeable, engaging, and made the whole visit even more enjoyable. Highly recommended!

A lovely place! We were greeted by host who immediately engaged us with conversation about our home country. The museum itself has a tones of artifacts, but the heart of the museum lies in the way it presents Ireland and its history. Our guide, Sean, was wonderful, the expressiveness with which he spoke even impressed two senior citizens from Poland, who didn't understand a single word, but were delighted with the way history was presented. I hope there are more guides like him! Totally recommend it! PS. After second thought... they're saying leprechauns are not real. Don't believe in everything they're saying. I warned you.

We were only in Dublin for the weekend and had a list of things to see longer than my arm. Personally I wasn’t up for spending most of a day slecking around a massive museum or gallery. So when I found this place on Google I thought it looked just the job. I booked it online and part way through the intro video I knew I had made the right choice. History and Humour. The guided tour is brilliant, or Pauline our guide was. She made it a very funny and enjoyable 45 odd minutes. Worth every penny. Go on give this place a craic, you won’t regret it.

We had an absolutely wonderful tour at The Little Museum of Dublin. Our guide, Pauline, was fantastic — knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely funny. The tour was incredibly well thought out, offering a perfect mix of history, storytelling, and humor. It gave us such a vivid and personal picture of Dublin’s past and culture. If you’re visiting Dublin, this museum is definitely worth a visit!

I had a fantastic time at the Little Museum of Dublin, made all the more memorable by our wonderful tour guide, Claire. From the start, Claire captivated us with her engaging storytelling, weaving fascinating facts about Dublin’s rich history with humor and charm. Her passion for the city was evident, and she brought its past to life in such an accessible and entertaining way. The highlight of the tour was Claire’s beautiful singing performance at the end—it added a truly special and heartfelt touch to the experience. After the guided portion, we had plenty of time to explore the Georgian house further on our own, which offered even more insight into Dublin’s cultural heritage. All in all, it was 40+ minutes very well spent. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to learn more about Dublin in an intimate and engaging setting.

Experiencing the Little Museum of Dublin was one of my greatest joys since moving to Ireland. I have been to most museums in Dublin and while all of them have their fair share of amazing things to see, the little one surpassed all expectations for me. First of all, the place doesn't feel little at all and every single inch is packed with artifacts of Ireland's incredible history. The way every single thing feels and looks as it was placed there with great care makes you want to spend your whole day exploring. But in the end, what elevated it all was our tour guide, George. It was breathtaking to see such display of charisma and knowledge! The way he described Dublin and Irish history with such depth and expertise, while engaging and entertaining our whole group, making us laugh, taking questions, and making the rich heritage of Dublin and Ireland even more fascinating (and the singing?? Amazing!!). Definitely recommend to everyone, natives, tourists, adults and children. If all you have is one day to spend in Ireland, come here, is the best crash course possible to make you want to come back.

Despite the positive reviews, I was hesitant to go, thinking it may be an underwhelming (which is not uncommon for “overhyped” places) experience. Well…we very much enjoyed being here. It is a unique museum; the experience provides an entertaining and efficient “crash course” in Irish history and culture. Going through a series of rooms, one of which is a cool video projection, you are immersed into different aspects of learning about Ireland, and specifically Dublin. What added tremendously to the experience is the wonderful historical building setting, the amazing variety of items, and the energetic tour guides. Our “storyteller” guide, Mark, was tremendous…he really engaged our group and made the visit memorable. Reservations are a must. This was the first place we visited during our trip to Dublin and it really set a positive tone for our stay in Dublin!

Went here today with two children 9 and 11 and my cousin visiting from NZ.Our tour guide was Saul.He was brilliant and gave a very funny and interesting look at Dublin history.My kids thought he was hilarious.Would recommend this tour to anyone with 29minutes to spare.A great way to spend a very rainy afternoon!

Wonderful park to just stroll through, especially if there's a light mist/rain. Great colors of nature, especially in fall. There's a kids park for little ones. The park is full of life, just people having a quiet time. I enjoyed it so much, I went back within my 5 day visit to Dublin. It's next to busy city life yet feels miles away. Street performer outside the gates to the park.

St Stephen's Green in Dublin is an absolute gem, especially for a family visit! We loved escaping the city bustle into this beautiful, tranquil Victorian park. It was a perfect spot for the whole family, offering a great mix of beautiful landscaping, historical statues, and a lovely playground that kept the kids thoroughly entertained. The central ornamental lake with the ducks was a particular highlight. It felt safe, well-maintained, and was a wonderful place for a relaxed stroll and some people-watching. A definite must-visit for anyone in Dublin!

Such a beautiful place. I picked a great day to go there anyway. Bright blue sky, sun was shining. Birds were singing. A really nice array of flowers and shubbery are scattered across the park. The wildlife are very present here inside the middle of the busy city. In amongst the many seagulls and pigeons I saw quite a few beautiful little birds like this robin that took a great interest in me and a squirrel too. Looking forward to another visit soon!

Stepping into St. Stephen's Green right off Dublin's busy streets is instantly calming. it's like finding a secret, peaceful world :) This beautiful Victorian park is the perfect escape. You immediately feel the fresh air and natural calm among the tall, shady trees. If you need a quick break to relax and recharge in the middle of the city, this is the place. It truly feels like a happy little oasis! A must-see for anyone wanting a friendly dose of nature in Dublin

This huge beautiful park is a breath of fresh air right in the middle of Dublin city. It offers some peace to stroll around, sit by the pond and watch the ducks, swans and birds and even learn about some local history. It’s very well-kept and clean. The fall colors made everything even more gorgeous and I had a wonderful time! 🍂

Beautiful clean park. There are many statues that describes what is their relation to Irish culture. Was very fun interacting with the birds flying around. It is recommended to sit and slow down to soak the atmosphere. Do not rush the place. Will come back

Wonderful green space in the middle of the city. Surprised with a variety of greenery at this place. Well kept, many different species of birds, flowers...perfect spot to enjoy outdoor space!!!

We recently returned from the 11-day Ireland Driftwood Tour with Vagabond, and it was truly the trip of a lifetime. Our tour guide, Damien, deserves an 11 out of 10! His knowledge of Ireland’s history, culture, and hidden gems was incredible—he seemed to know everything there is to know about this beautiful country. Damien went above and beyond by recommending fantastic places to eat, listen to live Irish music, and even taking us to extra stops that weren’t on the itinerary. What made the experience even better was his personality—his humor, quick wit, and great storytelling kept us laughing the entire trip. Our group of 12 couldn’t have asked for a better guide or a better time together. Ireland itself is breathtaking, with its rolling green hills, charming farms, ancient castles, and stunning views. I can absolutely see why everyone falls in love with this country, and having Damien as our guide made the whole journey even more special. We highly recommend Vagabond Tours and especially Damien—you won’t be disappointed!

We loved our Vagabond 5-Day Edge of the World Tour with Denise! We usually plan every aspect of our trips, but this time we decided to sit back and let Vagabond handle the details—and we’re so glad we did. The small group size was a great fit for us; it gave us a chance to really get to know everyone and feel like our voices mattered. We especially appreciated the personalized touches, like suggestions for where to go in Dingle and Killarney, and even making a group dinner reservation knowing options were limited in Spanish Point. The itinerary struck the right balance: we saw iconic landmarks like the Cliffs of Moher, but also discovered hidden gems and charming inns we’d may never have chosen or known on our own. Highlights included the Sheep Dog Demo at Bridget and Shamus’s, exploring the Dingle town, getting to know our group and horseback riding up a mountain with breathtaking views of the Dingle Coast—a truly magical experience. Our guide, Denise, was phenomenal. Her driving skills were impressive, her stories and historical insights fascinating and witty, and her attention to detail made the trip seamless. She’s awesome! We couldn’t have asked for a better group, itinerary, or guide. This tour gave us fabulous destinations, memorable experiences, and new friends along the way.

I took the Driftwood 11 Day Discover Ireland Tour with Dave as our guide & driver. It was a fantastic tour with added stories, recommendations and historical facts from our amazing guide. All the hotels were top rate with excellent service. The coastal views, castles, pubs and people were so beautiful that I fell in love with Ireland completely. I recommend using Vagabond for your Ireland vacation. I was traveling solo and liked being part of a small travel group.

Our 12-day Vagabond Giant Irish Adventure was nothing short of amazing, and a huge part of that was thanks to our incredible guide Jasper. Jasper kept everything organized and on time, while also making sure we laughed and just soaked up the beauty of Ireland. Jasper’s deep knowledge of Irish history and culture brought every stop to life. What stood out most was how much Jasper truly cared about everyone on the tour. He was attentive to every detail and always went the extra mile to make sure our hotels, restaurants, tour activities and options were ready to receive our group. By the end of the 12 days, it didn’t feel like we were just saying goodbye to a guide, but to a friend who brought a group of people from three different places together for an unforgettable experience.

Our 12 Day Giant Irish Adventure was One of the most amazing trips! Wonderful landscapes and the People that we met were very interesting and kind. But I would have to say that what made this trip so amazing was our Guide, Jasper! He was very accommodating and a joy to spend time with. He lead us to some of the most amazing places in Ireland.

There aren't enough words in the English (or Irish) language to describe how magnificent this tour was! I've been to Ireland three times now, but it was Vagabond Tours that made me truly fall in love with this magical country. My Mom and I had the great pleasure of taking the new 12-Day Wild Coasts & Clover Tour (we were on their second trip). The itinerary was expertly curated to be a perfect blend of history, nature, and local culture. It was what I call a "Stroll and Roll" style tour, where you're driven through gorgeous countryside and colorful villages between your daily stops. Each day was filled with a range of activities, from abbey ruins and sacred mountains to stunning beaches and idyllic villages. No day was too busy nor activity too strenuous, even for our most senior fellow travelers. Having several 2-night stays was also key. This allowed our group to relax in the evenings and enjoy the beautiful accommodations. Some were in town, while others were situated out on their own. All were lovely and quite comfortable. While the tour itself was incredible, what made this tour tops in my book was our guide, Jason. His years of experience as a tour and nature guide shone through, elevating what was already a great experience to one of true delight. He regaled us with his deep knowledge of Irish history, lore, and nature. His kind and calm nature made everyone feel well cared for, allowing us all to sit back and enjoy the entire experience. He was also the absolute sweetest with my Mom, which truly touched my heart and made our Mother-Daughter trip all the more special. In addition to all this, the synergy felt between my fellow travelers made this trip feel more like a family vacation (in the best way) rather than a random group of strangers. From the outset, we all became fast friends who genuinely enjoyed each other's company. We even refused to get off the van at the end because we didn't want the magic to end! This, I found out, was no lucky occurrence. Nearly half of our group were on their third Vagabond tour, and they didn't even know one another! A true testament to both Vagabond and its customers. There is definitely something special about this company, and I will be forever grateful for having toured with them. To say that I recommend traveling with Vagabond Tours is an understatement - BOOK YOUR TRIP. You're in for an experience you will never forget!

I went on the 7-Day Castles and Kingdoms tour with my mom and sister, and I can’t recommend Vagabond highly enough! From start to finish, the entire experience was seamless and thoughtfully organized. We received timely updates and clear communication before the trip, and once we were on the road everything ran so smoothly thanks to the wonderful staff and our amazing guide. The itinerary was fantastic, every location we visited and every hotel we stayed in exceeded expectations. Traveling in a small group turned out to be a huge highlight, as it gave us the chance to really connect and share the experience together. Our guide, Phillip, deserves a special mention. He was funny, patient, deeply knowledgeable, and just an all-around great person to travel with. He truly made the trip unforgettable, thank you, Phillip! If you’re able to request a guide, do yourself a favor and ask for him. Even the van itself was a pleasure; comfortable, clean, and perfect for the journey. Overall, Vagabond delivered on every level and gave us memories we’ll always cherish.

My wife and I took this tour on a Monday morning a few hours before our flight home and had a wonderful time. Our tour guide was very animated and obviously loved his job! Great tour through history all the way to current time. Definitely recommend this tour for any whiskey aficionados or anyone with just a taste for Jameson.

I paid about $26 for the Jameson Distillery tour and it was worth every penny. They start with a really cool 3D projector story about the history and how Jameson is made, then you move into a tasting room where you try four different Jamesons and learn how to properly smell and taste whiskey. It truly feels like a world-class experience. The premium ones were noticeably smoother (whiskey by itself definitely grows hair on your chest 😂), but it was fun, informative, and delicious. After the tasting, you get a drink included — they already have a bar set up with several cocktail options, and if you want another drink afterward you can buy more. The tour guide was incredible — funny, knowledgeable, and made it feel like he actually believed every part of the history. It was so good I found myself thinking, “Do y’all hire? I could work here too.” The staff overall was extremely friendly and helpful. They’ll even hold your bags if you’re coming straight from the airport like I was. There’s merchandise at the end if you want to shop, and the whole experience is just a lot of fun from start to finish. I would 100% come back and I’d tell anyone visiting Dublin to add this to their trip.

What an unforgettable experience at the Jameson Distillery! We opted for the Secret Whiskey Package and savored every moment. The tour was a delightful blend of history, craftsmanship, and fun, with fascinating insights into the company’s founder and the art of whiskey making. The highlight? Learning the skills of whiskey tasting, followed by a truly delicious sampling experience. Despite the bustling crowd of fellow travelers, the staff made us feel so special and welcome. We loved every minute and can’t wait to return!

Had a fantastic tasting tour on my second visit to this iconic Irish distillery. The guide’s deep knowledge and entertaining presentation made the experience memorable. It’s no wonder Jameson remains one of the world’s top selling whiskeys. Highly recommended!

Exactly everything you'd expect from a distillery tour. Great tour guide, samples of the whisky, and the best ambiance. All the employees were stellar and very nice to chat with. You can also purchase exclusive bottles you can't get anywhere else in the world.

This is one of the best distillery tour I’ve ever done! I’d recommend it to anyone visiting Dublin. Our tour guide was really informative and had a great demote of knowledge about the history of Jameson’s. I’m not usually a Whiskey drinker but after trying a Jamesons, Ginger Ale and Lime in the bar I am converted.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Jamison Distillery. I went with my husband and my daughter. It was very informative and quite interesting. There were several experiences during the tour. We tasted whiskeys that we hadn't tried before. Our new favorite one is Black Barrel. We've bought a bottle now that we're back home and have shared it with a neighbor. He is now a fan! I recommend going on this tour. It's fun, educational, and it even has a cute little shop inside.

It's just an incredible place.))) Thank you so much for the tour and the opportunity to visit the walls where this delicious elixir, Guinness, is produced. I can't say that this was the kind of tour I expected, but they really surprised me. Everything was in the style of new technologies, and we got a lot of vivid and pleasant experiences from it. Indeed, Guinness spares no expense for the public, all excursions are a great pleasure. And yes, each ticket has a glass of fresh beer, don't forget to give it to the bartender and ask for it to be cashed in the form of a beautiful, fresh Guinness)) Thank you very much for this tour. I will be visiting Dublin again - I will definitely come again!)

Unforgettable Experience at Guinness Storehouse This weekend's visit to the Guinness Storehouse was truly amazing! We were captivated by the rich history of Guinness, expertly brought to life through interactive exhibits and engaging storytelling. The self-guided tour took us on a fascinating journey through the brewing process, from ingredients to iconic taste. Highlights: - Incredible History: Learned so much about Guinness's heritage and legacy - Interactive Exhibits: Engaging displays made the experience fun and memorable - Perfect Ending: Poured our own perfect pint at the Gravity Bar rooftop, with stunning Dublin views - Delicious Food Truck: Tried the tasty hotdog outside – a great snack! Guinness Storehouse is an absolute must-visit in Dublin! Allow at least 2 hours to soak it all in.

A must visit if you come to Dublin. This is a self guided tour that brings you on a journey of how Guinness came about and how it is made. Very informative. You start your journey at the ground floor and work your way up towards the 7th floor which is the gravity bar. With the ticket purchase you will have a free glass of Guinness beer with one of the best views around.

If tourists and Guinness beer aren’t your thing, you can skip this tour. Ha! This is a well-designed, modern, and thoughtfully curated museum dedicated to the history and craft of Guinness. Just note, it’s not a factory tour. I’d give the Guinness Storehouse in Dublin two thumbs up for a great way to spend a couple of hours in the city. The building itself is shaped like a giant pint glass, with seven stories in total. The main tour covers about three levels and walks you through the process of beer making. Floor 4 is all the fun advertising thought the years and media room to watch their iconic commercials. Don’t skip the tasting room, it’s a brilliant sensory experience where you can explore the aromas of Guinness and enjoy your first sample while learning how to properly drink the black stuff! You finish the tour in the Gravity Bar at the top (floor seven), which offers grand panoramic views of Dublin. All told, I give it five shamrocks outta five. Sláinte! 🍀🍺

Fantastic place and a must to visit! We learnt about the deep history of how Guinness was created / invented, the complex techniques they used, and also showcased the past and present equipment used to make the Guinness. Very interactive museum and a must to visit when you are in Dublin, the queue management was great, we didn't had to wait too long to get into the museum. Also highly recommend to sign up for the workshop where you can print your image on the Guinness stout! ♿️ wheelchair accessible entrance and lots of space to move around inside the Storehouse. There are lifts available to move to different floors too.

I had the opportunity to visit the Guinness Storehouse, which was the place I most wanted to see while in Ireland. There are interesting shops inside, and the history of the brewery, as well as the history of Ireland, is displayed and is fascinating to see. They demonstrate how to sample the stout, and there are delicious restaurants. Plus, the top floor offers panoramic views over the entire city of Dublin. The service staff are all great, and some were kind enough to offer me free beer samples (a pint :D). If I ever get the chance to return to Ireland, I will definitely visit this place again.

Guinness has a self-guided tour, which I was a little leery of, at first, but it turned out to be a great experience. We had just been at Jameson the day before and that tour is about 30-40 minutes. By us walking through the 5-7 floors at Guinness, I think we ended up spending 2-3 hours there. We enjoyed every bit of it from the intro speech on the building and history, to the various interactive brewing processes, to the historical bottles, mascots, and advertising, the tasting room, and finally, the bar on the top floor with the great 360 degree views of Dublin. Just was a really cool place with lots to see and experience. We also ate at one of their restaurants where I had a good Beef Guinness stew along with a Hop House 13 Lager. Really had a good time visiting here.

Great night in at the Wild lights, did not add many photo's as do not want to spoil the experience for anyone else. Highly recommend, great for families with kids of all ages. Loads of food options on site(slightly overpriced IMO) We wanted to see all the displays which required us having to walk through parts we had previously seen earlier. Great experience, all the staff were so friendly and very cheery with only added more positively to our experience!! Highly recommend, and hope anyone reading gets to enjoy this experience!!

This is a wonderful Zoo with a large variety of animals. Clean, easy to navigate, fun. The dinosaur exhibit was amazing. Lots of fun facts shared everywhere about the animals. Plenty of toilets all over and places to eat. There is a small family farm for the little kids and lots of playground around for the kids to play. Buy tickets in advance to save time and money. Overall a fun place for the kids to visit.

One of the best zoos I’ve ever visited. The space provided for the animals is second to none, and the staff are consistently friendly and courteous. The talks are engaging, particularly the elephant presentation, and the variety of animals at Dublin Zoo is truly impressive — far better than what I’ve seen in Sydney or London. If you’re in the area, I highly recommend a visit. You won’t be disappointed. Thank you.

We had a wonderful time at Dublin Zoo — truly one of the best family experiences in the city! The zoo is beautifully laid out, spacious, and easy to explore. What really stood out was the incredible variety of animals you rarely see elsewhere: Okapis, Asian wolves, snow leopards, and majestic gorillas. Each enclosure feels thoughtfully designed, offering great visibility for visitors of all ages — even the little ones can see everything easily. There are lovely picnic areas, plenty of benches, and a good mix of food stands if you prefer a snack on the go. The children’s playgrounds — both outdoor and covered — are fantastic for a little break between exhibits. We also loved the dinosaur section, which adds a fun and educational twist to the visit. Tickets cost around €22–25 per person, and you’ll want to allow at least 2–3 hours to fully enjoy the zoo without rushing. A perfect day out for families, animal lovers, and anyone looking to spend a relaxed, inspiring afternoon surrounded by nature and wildlife!

Tickets can be purchased from the zoo... Arrived around 11:30pm and took a tour around 2 hours exploring around the zoo... We were excited to see animals but unfortunately we wouldn't find some animals while some of them are in deep sleep.. Area maintained well and directional signage available to guide visitors

Great day out. Lovely time of year to visit, not too hot so the animals aren't hiding out of the sun. Alot of food/icecream places are closed but didnt bother us but just note to bring snacks. We ate at the meerkat restaurant at the end. We got to see them setting up for wild lights, looks beautiful

A fantastic day out for all the family. We visited during the week in term time and it was practically empty which we loved. A HUGE mix of animals to see and some great little cafes. Only downside is the lack of seating near animal enclosures - but plenty in the picnic areas. Relatively flat route. We spent around five hours in total here.

Fascinating guided tour of the Gaol. Lots of information about Ireland's history and independence movement, including the many political prisoners held here. The museum was organized well and displays were clearly explained. Well worth the price of admission. Tickets sell out well know advance but day of tickets can sometimes be purchased online.

This was a great tour, covering the history of the prison, some of the notable figures who were emprisoned/ executed here, and some notable Irish history (the famine, Easter rising, etc) Our guide John was knowledgeable and engaging. At the end there is a museum which was well organised and had some very interesting exhibits, including the final letters four men sent to their mothers before execution, from 1922. There’s also a cafe, and a gift shop with lots of books on Irish history as well as the average Ireland souvenirs

I highly recommend this tour when you're visiting Dublin but please note: YOU NEED TO BUY TICKETS 4 WEEKS IN ADVANCE. I bought our tickets online and 10 minutes later they were sold out. Please visit the website, they explain everything. Our tour guide, Rob, was amazing. He spoke clearly and loud enough for all to hear. Rob was a wealth of knowledge. To paraphrase Rob, there's not a lot of happy stories here, but a lot of important stories. We learned a lot of history and highly recommend visiting.

Honestly the best thing you can do in Dublin as a tourist. It's not incredibly busy and is a very important cornerstone of Irish history. It's a heavy subject but was told with elegance and pause. I very much appreciate the can driver pointing us in the direction of the Gaol. Do yourself a favor and take the time to visit this place. And make sure you book well in advance as tickets fill up quick.

Did this tour as a spur of the moment, and wow, we wasn’t disappointed! Our guide (Adam) was fantastic and great at describing the history of the prison, plenty of emotion in his presentation of it which really made you feel how grim it was to be held there, The prison holds so much history for Ireland and the rebellion, after the walking tour you get to see the small museum which has loads f info and items from the prison and prisoners, especially the letters!! Hard read but so worth taking the time to read them. Entrance fee is tiny and they could charge more easily I feel as it was so informative. Thank you for the education from the visit ☘️🇮🇪

Hats down one of my fave visits in Dublin and the best presentation from any tour guide I've ever had. If you are lucky to get Adam as a guide, you are in for a treat. He has an exceptional storytelling skill that kept both the children on the tour and adults engaged to the max, and conveyed both the story of the jail and the resistance fighters in a fantastic way.

I had a perfect tour at Kilmainham Gaol — it was incredibly interesting and well-organized. Our tour guide, Thomas, was excellent! You can really see that he enjoys his work and does it with great passion. His knowledge and enthusiasm made the experience even more memorable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Dublin.

It's suitable for picnics with many people and a good place for children to play. There are ice cream, hot dogs, French fries and other fast food. There are plenty of parking spaces. It's a good place to take pictures of waterfalls and play in the water. However, the mobile phone signal is weak after entering the mountainous area, so it is recommended to download an offline map!

Really quite a nice park with charcoal grills for use. Charcoal and lighters are sold at an onsite snack bar / coffee shop which also has two souvenir machines (one selling “medallions” for 2 euro and another for pressing pennies). Be aware that you will need to drive a fairly narrow two-way road from the front gate to the parking lot. The admission for two adults was 15 euro which seemed steep at first but I think that you could definitely get your value out of it for a group grillout. There is also a waterfall.

Visited Powerscourt Waterfall and honestly, the best part is how close it is to the city while still feeling completely secluded. It’s a beautiful spot, perfect for a family picnic or a quick getaway from the noise of Dublin. The scenery is stunning and really worth the trip just make sure to go on a good-weather day to enjoy it fully.

Visited Powerscourt Waterfall on a weekend afternoon with the family and it was absolutely beautiful. The waterfall is Ireland’s highest and truly a sight to behold—surrounded by peaceful woodland and perfect for a relaxing stroll or picnic. There’s plenty of space for kids to run around, and the facilities were clean and well-kept. It is a private property owned and maintained by a wonderful family. There's plenty of options for doing a barbecue and you will be asked while entering the facility if you wish to do barbecue or not. If yes then there are additional charges for it. The entry ticket to this place has different prices for adults, kids and senior citizens. Tickets can be purchased online in advance or can be purchased at the gate too. There's also combo price for families. They also sell freshly produced honey which are produced in bee hives inside the estate. There's a huge children's play area inside. There is plenty of parking spaces for more than 70 cars at any given time. There's also a shop where you can buy fast foods for a quick bite. There is toilet facilities just besides the children's play area. The best option is to plan to spend the entire day here with family and friends doing a picnic. It’s a great spot to unwind, enjoy nature, and take some amazing photos. Highly recommend for families or anyone looking for a scenic day out near Dublin!

• 🌊 Height: At 121 meters (398 ft), it’s the tallest waterfall in Ireland. • 🌲 Scenery: Surrounded by ancient oak, beech, larch, and pine trees, it feels like stepping into a fairytale forest. • 🦌 Wildlife: The area is home to red squirrels, fallow deer, and a variety of bird species. • 🎒 Activities: Great for walking, picnics, or just relaxing with the sound of rushing water. Families often visit with children, and it’s also a favorite spot for photographers. • 💡 Tip: The waterfall is within the Powerscourt Estate but has a separate entrance and admission fee. It’s best visited on a clear day to enjoy the views, and mornings are quieter if you want to avoid crowds.

A must see, was very surprised to be charged an entry fee to see the waterfall, but it was beautiful. We are happy we went!

We had the most wonderful day at Powerscourt Waterfall! It’s an absolutely stunning location and perfectly set up for a fantastic family outing. First off, the practicalities: Yes, there is an entry ticket to get in, but it is well worth the fee for access to such a beautiful and well-maintained area. There is plenty of car parking available close to the main picnic spots, which is very convenient. Clean toilet facilities are also on-site, which is always a bonus. The waterfall itself is the main event, and it is truly breathtaking. As Ireland's highest waterfall, it's an incredibly impressive sight cascading down the rocks, and it provides a fantastic backdrop for the whole area. What makes this place a 5-star destination for us are the brilliant family-friendly facilities. The kids absolutely loved the play area and had a great time running around. Best of all, this is the perfect spot for a barbecue! There are lots of open, grassy areas where you can set up for the day, and many families were enjoying a full cookout, which created a really lovely, relaxed atmosphere. A top-tier attraction for a brilliant day out in nature. Highly recommended!

The Avoca weaving tour was absolutely wonderful !! A perfect blend of history, craftsmanship, and Irish charm. The 40-minute experience was engaging from start to finish, offering an inside look at one of the oldest weaving and industrial sites in all of Ireland. It’s impressive how well they’ve preserved both the artistry and the storytelling behind their work. The tour is fully handicap accessible, and the guides make sure everyone can see and experience the process up close. Avoca truly spares no expense in creating a hands-on, interactive experience that brings the craft to life. What makes it even more special is the story of the three sisters who started it all; their vision and dedication are genuinely inspiring. You leave with a deep appreciation for Irish heritage, family entrepreneurship, and the timeless beauty of handmade textiles. A must-visit for anyone traveling through the area!

Just had a wonderful guided tour with Alan. An insiders view of the oldest mill in Ireland. See first how master artisans craft handmade and high quality fabric and continue the mills 300 year tradition. The whole family enjoyed the tour and then lunch at the cafe.

A piece of living Irish heritage! Avoca Handweavers is such a fascinating place to visit — not just a shop, but a story woven through generations. You can really feel the history in the fabrics, colors, and textures, each carrying the spirit of Ireland’s craftsmanship. The atmosphere is warm and authentic, and it’s easy to get lost among the beautiful weaves, natural products, and local flavors. A visit here is more than shopping — it’s stepping into Ireland’s cultural soul.

Went on a Monday thinking we’d have lunch and tour the center. Very disappointed that the weaving shed was closed, the store was open but we bought a few things to take home and then had lunch. The vibe in the restaurant wasn’t good and the food was terrible 😞 which had the potential to be so much better. Also has the worlds closest urinals!

Beautiful shop and café with a charming mix of traditional Irish craftsmanship and modern style. The handwoven textiles are gorgeous—perfect for gifts or souvenirs—and there’s a lovely selection of food, home goods, and clothing. The café serves delicious meals and baked goods in a cozy setting. A bit on the pricey side, but the quality is worth it.

Very interesting tour. You truly understand the higher price range after seeing exactly what goes into making each garment.

Alan took us on a brilliant tour where we got to learn the history, ups n downs and current status of this still-working weavers. Yay to the Wynne sisters! We got to meet some of the contemporary master weavers who work there now, and watch them at work both on traditional and modern looms. Whether you're a textile geek or a total novice you'll find this interesting. Great team in the shop too! Thankyou for all your help ladies.

Glendalough Cathedral is without a doubt one of the highlights of this historic monastic site. Walking among the ruins, you can almost feel the centuries of history that shaped this valley. The cathedral itself, though roofless, is truly impressive in its scale and detail. The stonework and arches tell stories of a time when Glendalough was a thriving center of faith and learning, and it is fascinating to imagine how it must have looked in its full glory. What I love most about this place is the atmosphere. Surrounded by peaceful mountains and old gravestones, the cathedral feels both grand and serene. It’s a perfect spot to pause, reflect, and take in the deep sense of history. Every corner is incredibly photogenic – from the tall stone walls to the ancient Celtic crosses scattered around the grounds. The area is well maintained, and there is a spacious parking lot nearby with a one-time daily fee, as well as free toilet facilities and small food stalls, which make the visit convenient. But what makes this site truly special is the sense of stepping back in time. If you are a history lover, a photographer, or simply someone who enjoys exploring unique cultural sites, Glendalough Cathedral is a must-see. I always leave this place inspired and grateful to experience a piece of Ireland’s soul. Definitely worth visiting – and worth sharing!

Historic, monastic site with 2 lakes of natural beauty. The old mine starts the Wicklow Way walk. All free - go early as both carparks fill up quickly and charge around €5 some free on Street parking around the hotel area.

This monastic centre beautifully situated in a mountain valley in the heart of Wicklow, the garden of Ireland, is what the room dedicated to it in the Historical Museum on Kildare Street Dublin, refers to as the Rome of Ireland. This may be in a sense, true spirituality but its collection of ruined buildings pales starkly in comparison to the aforementioned Italian capital's. That said it is still well worth a visit to this monastery village and the surrounding area that gives us a glimpse back into times when Ireland was a thriving ecclesiastical centre while most of the rest of Europe had been plunged by the fall of the same Rome into the Dark ages.

By far the largest structure in the ancient monastic site and the only one you can enter. It's very big, and despite not having a roof anymore, some of the Arches are still somewhat intact. It's a must-see in the monastic site. Just be warned that the doorway can be muddy.

Three of us visited the Glendalough Monastic City yesterday. A place we shouldn’t have missed visiting while in Dublin. The tall round tower is the most prominent feature in the place. The access into the tower is from an opening at a higher level using a tall ladders. This is to protect clergy from the Vikings, as we understand. There are tomb stones we sighted recent as 2001. Not clear to us if this is still considered to be a burial site for the community around.

What an amazing place! Very historic. Super glad we stopped and walked around. Definitely staying a few days when I go back.

Glendalough in general is a very exciting, charming in sense of magical, place. It is good to know more about the history to enjoy this place more. Take also a nice walk around the lake. In autumn it has a particular feeling to it with the stones, the surrounding graveyard and the mists, fog and falling leaves. Why not 5 stars. The descriptions are dated and although the visitor center is very service oriented the whole experience could be dramatically enhanced. Also some better coffee and warm snacks places would be great particularly on a foggy frosty autumn day.

Super nice Golf Club with plenty of heritage. It was a challenging and enjoyable course with some hazard but very well conditions. Pro Shop well equiped. Food and the restaurant is very good

Simply stunning. Visited and played here May 2025 and was in awe of the scenery surrounding the course. The course is brilliant with some stunning tee shots over the river. A good challenge to all golfers. Looking forward to playing again in 2026.

Didn't get playing as only out for a drive but the course looks fabulous and would be well suited for players who prefer playing flat courses. The Young lad in the Pro shop was extremely helpful.

The description as 'The Augusta of Ireland' is well-deserved and accurate. Quite simply stunning! If you can achieve less than 36 putts in your round, then take a bow. Ratings: Course: 10/10 Catering / Bar: 8/10 (arrived at 10:30 wanting coffee and snack but they were closed). Unusual. Post game drinks excellent. Proshop: 8/10 No "welcome to...enjoy your game". 2 staff in deep conversation and the server remained seated and seemingly disinterested when conducting a sale with me. Will I return...YES.

It's probably one of the nicest courses I've played, fantastic scenery. And really good food in the clubhouse when you're finished the round.

Fabulous course, in great condition. But scenery is out of this world. Even if you are not hitting the ball well, the walk in these surroundings will do your heart and mind a power of good.

Fabulous golf course with superb fairways and greens. A few criss cross holes where players must be very vigilant. Great clubhouse, service and food. Would definitely recommend a visit.

Bective Abbey is one of the most atmospheric monastic sites in Ireland, a place where history, architecture, and landscape come together beautifully. Founded in 1147 as a daughter house of Mellifont, it was among the earliest Cistercian foundations in Ireland, established during a period of great reform when the Cistercians brought their austere yet powerful vision of monastic life to the island. What survives today reflects both the simplicity and the strength of that order. The cloister garth, with its fine arcades, is remarkably well preserved and offers a vivid sense of the monks’ daily routines of prayer, study, and labour. The church, though partly ruined, still conveys the Cistercians’ architectural ethos—clean lines, minimal decoration, and an emphasis on proportion rather than ornament, in stark contrast to the more elaborate Romanesque and later Gothic churches elsewhere in Ireland. The abbey was not just a spiritual centre but also a powerful landholding institution. In the 13th and 14th centuries, Bective controlled extensive estates, and its abbots were figures of political as well as religious significance. Following the Dissolution of the Monasteries under Henry VIII in the 1530s, the abbey was surrendered and granted to secular landlords, at which point parts of it were converted into a fortified manor house. This explains the later defensive features—such as battlements—that overlay the original monastic plan, giving the abbey its unique hybrid character. Bective has also entered popular culture through film—most famously, it was used as a location in Braveheart. Yet even without the Hollywood connection, it is a site of haunting beauty. Set on the banks of the River Boyne, its quiet, ivy-clad walls invite reflection on the ebb and flow of Irish history: from medieval piety to Tudor conquest, from flourishing abbey to evocative ruin. For anyone with an interest in medieval monasticism, Cistercian architecture, or simply the poetry of ruined stone in an Irish landscape, Bective Abbey is unmissable.

Ancient and atmospheric! The preserved medieval ruins and cloisters are a brilliant, free experience. Great spot for history

Had the place almost to ourselves, well except for the ‘murder of crows’ ! Never seen so many crows together, what a sound! The abbey was nice to walk around and it’s free entry!

Free, good parking, easy access. Mostly open to explore and the little ones to climb. Alternating to see successive constructions and imagine rooms usages.

When you walk around this place, you might get the impression that this is a location from Harry Potter. The area is clean and peaceful. There's a parking place near the castle

Great visit to an old abby. Apparently was informed that some scenes from Braveheart were filmed there.

We must say Ireland has its more than its fair share, of abbey ruins to see, however, this one is on the must see list, there are lots of nooks and crannies to be explored, some ventured with caution, we love there is accessible parking to be had, and just a small scenic walk to the ruins. we found the late afternoon was perfect for piccies.

Wicklow Mountains National Park is an absolutely gorgeous environment! The scenery and landscape are breathtaking. You really need to spend a good amount of time here to explore and walk around. It’s beautiful from every angle.

A breathtaking escape into nature’s beauty. The Wicklow Mountains are simply stunning — a perfect blend of rolling hills, tranquil lakes, and endless greenery. The scenery is breathtaking at every turn, whether you’re driving through the mountain roads, hiking one of the many trails, or just pausing to take in the panoramic views.

Sunny Wicklow Mountains, serene beaches, rolling hills, and gentle breeze—nature’s quiet beauty wrapped me in peace and breathtaking views.

Amazing nature, surrounded by deers , and great landscapes

Simply breathtaking and out-of-this-world scenery.

Beautiful and quite place, scenic views and amazing driving, many spots to stop and admire the view, montais, florets, rivers, falls etc.

Beautiful stunning landscape! It has 2 beautiful lakes and several tracking paths. Ideal for having a walk or a picnic. It has 2 car parks but if you decide to go on a weekend or bank holiday i would advise to go really early. Roads are narrow and you'll get stuck in traffic for at least an hour. Iam totaly going back and i try another walking track.

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.

Myself and my family made the visit to Rathwood from Drogheda for their Halloween event. It was fantastic. Train ride, Circus tent with amazing show for the kids, pumpkin patch maze and some amusements. The staff were friendly and helpful. I had accidentally been charged twice but Faye looked after me with refund etc. The cafe and shop area were also very nice. The only negative point for me was the soft-play area. It was extremely busy and unsupervised. Larger kids were in the area for small babies which meant that we couldn't let our child play and had to leave early, so my only advise would be to supervise/police the soft play area better.

I made a big mixup and double booked myself when I booked our Santa train tickets. I was delighted there was still dates available and Jessica B changed all three of my bookings seamlessly via WhatsApp. So grateful for her help and delighted we can all still go on the Santa train experience together as a family!

If I could rate Rathwood Furniture lower than 1 star, I genuinely would. One star feels like charity at this point. I ordered items clearly listed as “in stock.” Paid immediately. Then—shock—turns out they never had them in the first place. And instead of apologising or issuing a prompt refund, I’ve been met with excuses, delays, and a level of customer service that can only be described as disappearing into the void. What’s even worse is realising I’m far from the only one. There are so many customers dealing with the same nonsense that pursuing legal action now feels like the only way forward. And yes—court proceedings will be the next step, because enough is enough. Endless phone calls being cut off or hung up on even a horror story from another trusted bed company advising a poor customer actually visited the store in Carlow and was advised that they did not have the money to refund. So if you’re thinking of buying from Rathwood? Don’t. Honestly, save yourself the stress, the wasted time, and the feeling of being completely taken advantage of. Avoid this company at all costs.

Absolutely shocking company to deal with. Numerous orders for fuel where they changed the delivery date by weeks at a time. When the orders was cancelled the refund has not been processed 7 weeks later. They do not answer their phones for customer service. Avoid at all costs. If I could give less than 1 star I would.

***Update*** Bedframe hasn't arrived after the delivery timeframe of 20-28 working days has passed. No response to my emails asking for an update & nobody picking up the phone when trying to call to get an update on my order. Order information hasn't been updated on the link that I got from the day it was ordered. Feel sorry for the staff after receiving great service when I did have an issue. Will post an update if I ever receive one, disappointment will be the only thing you get from ordering from this company based on recent reviews. Excellent Customer Service from Jessica B! I recently ordered a bed frame and realized after completing my purchase that I had selected the wrong type. I reached out to customer service and Jessica B responded within 24 hours. She was incredibly helpful and managed to amend my order before it was shipped. I’m so grateful for her prompt and efficient assistance — she truly went above and beyond to make sure everything was sorted out smoothly. Thank you, Jessica, for your exceptional customer service and for making the whole experience stress-free!

Jean P was very helpful in tracing my order details. I had not received an email confirmation (email difficulty) but she managed to track the order and provide me the details. She also sent me an email with the details. Excellent support and follow up. Thank you Jean P.

Absolutely terrible service. Ordered wood in may and still no wood. Responses on the portal are very generic and not at all helpful. Delivery estimates constantly being pushed back. I'm now concerned we won't get a refund either. If there are supply issues why do I get bombarded with more and more emails advertising wood that apparently doesn't exist? Why were refunds not issued when supply issues became apparent? Is there seriously not a single pallet of wood in rathwoods entire supply? Or are they actually just prioritising new orders instead of fulfilling the wait and save orders? Surely all sales should be stopped until existing orders are fulfilled. It's absolutely diabolical that this company have taken so many people's money, have failed supply goods and are allowed to continue taking more and more orders. By the sounds of it, lots of people have cancelled their orders so surely there must be some available now!

This was the cutest little Irish experience. Great chocolates & delicious ice-cream. There is a playground for the kids & photo opps.

Lovely staff and owner with great products. Prices range from low to high but are made from quality ingredients so worth it in my opinion. The packaging is beautiful and makes a sophisticated gift. Their cute chocolate animals are perfect for kids. Great for souvenirs for family as there's something for everyone. There's a nice garden with a play area and sets to take photos with and a friendly atmosphere all around. Would love to come again and try out the chocolate making :)

Incredible artisan chocolate! Absolutely the best chocolates and hot chocolate I’ve ever had. The staff is so incredibly kind, friendly, and helpful and offered generous samples too. The cafe area is beautiful and spacious. Can’t recommend the Chocolate Garden of Ireland enough. Will definitely be back if in the area. If you’re visiting Ireland, add the Chocolate Garden of Ireland to your itinerary!

Really cool place. We did chocolate molding and we had a great time. Staff are super friendly, well worth a visit.

We had a fantastic time at the Chocolate Garden of Ireland—crafting our own chocolate figures was both fun and delicious. The creamy ice cream (include in the ticket price) and charming playground made it a perfect family day out, filled with love and laughter.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A delightful and relaxing visit! We visited the Chocolate Garden of Ireland with a senior group from Dublin and had a truly lovely experience. The chocolate-making demonstration was both fun and informative, and we all enjoyed sampling the delicious handmade treats. The staff were friendly, patient, and very accommodating to our group’s needs. The café was a highlight — fantastic scones, homemade ice cream, and comfortable seating. The gardens and outdoor area were peaceful and well-kept, perfect for a gentle stroll. Highly recommended for groups looking for a relaxing and enjoyable outing, school tours and families trip.

Went for some chocolate gifts 🎁 Had a very nice cappuccino which comes with a free chocolate. There is more available such as afternoon tea, chocolate making & is a good place for children's parties.

We stayed in one of the rooms for a night June 2025. Alex was great to answer our questions. We walked the grounds which were lovely. The history in the castle with antiques and paintings was fascinating. Breakfast was included and the as delicious. Worth a stay, wish we had stayed longer!!

We stayed here at the b and b and also took the tour. If you want a castle stay in Ireland that is unique and authentic this is perfect. Stay in a beautifully appointed castle room, surrounded by art in a castle owned and run by the family that has been there since the 1600’s. It’s surreal! You feel as if you have the grounds to yourself in the evening with beautiful gardens to stroll. I would recommend bringing a bottle of wine to stroll through the rose garden. There are few opportunities to have authentic experiences like this one. Unforgettable. (Booked on air b and b and through their website)

Beautiful gardens. Nice tea rooms. Didn't get to do the castle tour but I'll be back.

Fantastic guided tour. The guide was so knowledgeable and answered all our questions. I can’t believe I didn’t know that such a beautiful and interesting place existed until now 🏰🌳

Loved the castle and tour, guided by the owner Moire. Only cakes with teas and coffee though, nothing more substantial to eat. Lovely courtyard with plenty of seating and tables inside and out with an abundance of peacocks!

I highly recommend the tour of the house and gardens. It is very informative. The house has character and there is quite a majestic drive up to it.

As a wedding florist, Huntington Castle is truly one of my favourite venues to work in. Every corner of this historic castle exudes charm and character, offering the perfect backdrop for romantic, intimate celebrations. The gardens are absolutely stunning — full of lush greenery, seasonal blooms, and beautifully kept grounds that make for the dreamiest outdoor ceremony or photo setting. Inside, the castle’s timeless atmosphere adds such warmth and authenticity; it’s like stepping into a real-life fairytale. From a supplier’s perspective, the team at Huntington Castle is a pleasure to work with — welcoming, professional, and always ensuring everything runs smoothly for couples and their vendors alike. If you’re dreaming of an intimate wedding in your own Irish castle, surrounded by history and natural beauty, I couldn’t recommend Huntington Castle more highly

Hidden gem!! Absolutely lovely place to go to if you like gardens and flowers. It is beautiful, i went there yesterday, the flowers were in full bloom, it was lovely. It s very relaxing there, good energy around. They have a café with tables outside and a few games at the tables for kids. It kept mine happy for an hour. I would recommend this place 100%. It is €2 for parking and free entrance. Well done to the gardeners!! 🙂👍

Altamont gardens is my idea of heaven. I have visited several gardens in Ireland, but this beats them all so far. Everything is so well curated that the gardeners' work is seamless and every little part of it just makes sense. Also, the cards on sale at the coffee shop are handmade and truly original. Can't recommend this place enough.

Gorgeous, the grounds are an amazing mix of cultured and wild, with fabulous specimen trees... my favourite was a dead tree in the Ice Age Glen, covered in Porcelain mushrooms, and the little diver in the lake (a New Zealand Grebe?). 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️

Altamont Gardens is truly a piece of heaven. I can’t even put into words what my eyes have seen... We spent about two hours walking among these incredible plants, flowers, and trees, like they were handcrafted by God himself. Honestly, we were absolutely sure we’d spent that time on a different planet. It’s the kind of place that makes you forget everything else - just pure peace, beauty, and a connection with nature like no other. If you ever get the chance to visit, don’t think twice. Trust me, it’s an experience you’ll never forget.

An absolutely beautiful garden! Nice cafe where we had coffee and sweets and then we set off to do the river walk. We were only there for about 2 hours and could have done with a bit more time, but definitely worth this time!

An oasis of tranquility. Great place to spend couple hours switched off from modern world while enjoying colours and sounds of nature. Car park, picnic area and toilets available. Also, Altomont Gardens is a place for gardening enthusiasts as you can buy various different shrubs, flowers and trees. Visit and you wont regret.

Absolutely love altamount gardens it's definitely one of my favourite gardens to visit, you can have a picnic at the car park, it does tend to get a bit windy its a pity they got rid of all the trees as it was a bit of shelter, they could do with a bit of shelter for the outdoor seating area, they have a one way system now as well which I didn't think was greatly visible but mind you I wasn't wearing my glasses 😆 so I'll take the blame on that one, so beautiful would love to see the house open to the public
