Extensive woodland and parkland with over 3,000 trees and shrubs, a historic walled garden and 16 km of walking trails. One of the “Great Gardens of the World”, quietly located along the River Suir and ideal for a botanical break just outside Waterford.

It's comprised of 70 acres of beautiful woodland featuring a medley of walled gardens, hidden follies, and a giant mansion house. Make sure to check out the wonderful shop onsite selling plants, ice cream, and coffee. The gardens are open all year around but the shop is open seasonally.
