What travellers are saying
- roriCounty Kerry, Ireland7 contributionsHonestly I can bearly put into words just how much enjoyment I had during the experience. I booked the owl experience with my family and we did a few flights with Eugene the barn owl who did an amazing job. The staff are amazing and super accomidating you can just tell the staff are really passionate about the birds and you can just see how well they have taken care of their lovely birds. I don't think I could put into words just how much i enjoyed my time there, I just recently started falconary myself so it was lovely to hear a bunch of new facts and talk to the staff about everything and share all the stories about each others birds. Can't get over just how lovely all the birds were I'll definitely have to come back multiple times to see the birds over and over again! This is totally worth every penny possible so worth the visit :)Written 20 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- JeremyDublin, Ireland16 contributionsWhat a treat in West Wicklow. A beautiful house surrounded by a beautiful created garden, courtyard and places to stay in the courtyard. A naturally sloping garden designed a created by its owner. She was in amongst the weeds gardening away. What a pleasure to meet her. There are a huge variety of plants you can buy and a lovely courtyard cafe where you can enjoy a coffee and a cake.

- T-SGlobetrottersPreston, UK3,807 contributionsIt is five years since our last visit here and the gardens are still as amazing as ever. Packed with colour with many rare and unusual plants. Several new areas developed since our last visit including a sand garden for Mediterranean plants. The wooded valley and wildflower meadow on the other side of the valley with its glorious views remains as enchanting as ever. Visit needs a minimum of 3 hours to truly appreciate all there is on offer. Can combine this with a visit to June Blakes garden a short distance away where there is a tea room.Written 4 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- StephenCrossDublin, Ireland30,911 contributionsPlayed on a very wet Saturday in February. Lovely course but the fairways and greens were so wet it made it very difficult to play. Course should probably have been closed.Written 3 February 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Bozeman-DublinTrim, Ireland11,334 contributionsGorgeous place for a walk. I love Kippure Estate and try to come back at least once a year for a river study.
Outstanding level of expertise from the rangers and educational staff, very good facilities and of course it is blessed with the most magnificent, wild, rugged mountain scenery. Some wonderful trails to enjoy and the wild flowers and the rest of the flora and fauna ate just beautiful to see.
I've reviewed it before a long while back but felt it was deserving of another more up-to-date review to show the place has lost none of its splendour.
We had another thoroughly enjoyable day out in the fresh air by the river Liffey. Such a tranquil and picturesque place. Looking forward to my next visit already.Written 2 May 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
