Having read the reviews we thought we'd take a visit. We were a bit confused heading through an industrial park. But the gardens were superb, much bigger than we expected. They were very welcoming and tranquil place. Beautiful fountains, little rest areas, flowers, statues, Waterfall and little rivers. Staff were lovely and it had a little cafe, which we didn't use. Definitely worth a visit at 6 euro each.

We give wildlife talks, wildlife photography workshops, kids nature trails and eco treasure hunts! Come and visit The Old Rectory Killedmond where we meet you and provide organic refreshments and talk about the local environment. Afterwards we'll go for a relaxing walk, low hills to no hills, and point out all the amazing flora and fauna we have. Then enjoy afternoon tea in the garden or by the fire and discuss what we've seen. Go wild in the Blackstairs!

Mary's cabins are fabulous places to stay with comfort and beauty at their hear. She runs the place with a light touch but a big heart. And her sourdough is fabulous too!

I visited the Arboretum last week and I have to say it was absolutely beautiful. It is obvious that years of work and planning has gone into this establishment. It is very customer friendly and the service is excellent. The selection is stock is brilliant. I had meal in the restaurant and really enjoyed it. The Arboretum is well worth a visit.

This is a lovely walk and takes about 50 mins to complete the whole circuit. Good place to go in winter as the boardwalk type surface keeps you out of the mud! I’d never been here before but it’s a real hidden gem.
