In the wild Wicklow countryside you'll find 47 acres of sweeping gardens so stunning that they have been voted the third best in the world by National Geographic. As ornate as the Palladian mansion at its centre, the grounds of Powerscourt House encompass walled gardens, Japanese gardens, ornamental lakes and a pet cemetery. Get lost in secret hollows and wooded valleys, culminating in a climb to the top of Pepperpot Tower for a view so breathtaking you’ll remember it for years to come.
2 Ballyin Gardens
Welcome to Ballyin Gardens, six acres of lush paradise spanning the north bank of the Blackwater river, just upstream from Lismore Castle in County Waterford. Meander through this 18th century haven, rooted in its historic past through old specimen rhododendrons, azaleas and camellias. Bursts of colour are framed by mature trees, including the Montery Cypress, a towering protector which has stood the test of time.
3 Borris House Gardens
In the beautiful Barrow Valley in County Carlow, Borris Gardens sit amidst wooded Victorian splendour with a majestic backdrop of Mount Leinster and the Blackstairs Mountains.
