Reviewed By amandatallullah - New Ross, Ireland

As a local .. would really recommend for walking .. good 3km circuit through wooded areas and down by river. Tranquil and beautiful. Gravelled does not muddy paths. Inclines so good to get the heart rate moving. Good parking ... cafe on site and pub within walking distance in Saltmills.

Built in 1846, it features a rare revolving straw thatch cap to catch the wind for its sails. Beautifully preserved and maintained, the key to have a peek inside is available from the adjacent Millhouse Bar & Restaurant.
