Curraghmore House and Gardens

Reviewed By tressensible - Dublin

Wonderful, formal Gardens with a large Fountain base and lake. Sunshine, swans and cygnets.
Large courtyard...some acres in size, rather like a French chateau. The interior of the house is fascinating and totally unspoiled, a true Georgian gem, original furniture and decorations by Wyatt. Really appreciated the wit and knowledge of Basil, our charming guide, who gave us great insights into the history of this lovely place. One visit is not enough, there is so much to see. Shell house extraordinary and the whole experience unique.

Tried to call on our way to there but no answer for few times, by the time we reached we were told we have to wait another 2 hours which we didn't want to waste so we moved to the next stop of our tour.
Need to work on communication channels and give more info that booking is a must before arrival.

Mount Congreve House and Gardens

Reviewed By Katie C - Waterford, Ireland

I spent a really lovely afternoon in Mount Congreve. What beautiful Gardens! They are huge and so well looked after. You can smell the gorgeous colourful and wonderful variety of flowers from every corner. There are lovely winding Dutch steps and a most interesting temple. As for Mount Congreve House it is a real treat. These Gardens are really worth a visit and you can now go into these Gardens from the wonderful Greenway There is a lovely little restaurant at the entrance where one can sit, have a coffee and enjoy the beauty all around.

Entry is currently free, which is always an attraction for an OPW site. the lady on the front desk was very helpful and informative. We had the castle to ourselves the whole visit, the highlight was going up the tower Reading all about the history. Definitely worth a visit especially on a sunny day.

Mahon Falls (a.k.a. Eas na Machan)

Reviewed By helpfull - Kildare, Ireland

Last minute visit as the sign on the road prompted us to take a detour. Gorgeous day which gave way to a lovely walk up to the waterfall. Of course once up there the kids want to climb so.... we all climbed :) Refreshing paddle in the water, stunning mountain views on the way up and again back down. All in all a very worth while trip.
