    This place was a real wow ... have visited sensory gardens before but this is on another level. Beautifully and so impressively done. Loved it and the range of sensory experiences afforded. Highly highly recommended. Lovely cake and coffee too.

    We enjoyed our excursion to Duckett's Grove. The tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable sharing the story of the house and family that once lived there.

    The tour is outside so we were happy we had rain jackets and umbrellas on the day.

    Lovely spot to see if you are nearby. Interesting and unique historic monument and great views. It’s in the middle of a field of crops but the walkway is very nicely done.

    A great camping and caravan site, rustic all the way, a good experience of outdoor camping. Owner and family run the place so well. They have a little takeaway food area with a small shop, toilets and showers and a big enough play area for the kids, they also run a tractor and trailer ride around the grounds for free and sell fire wood on site for that evening time camp fire / bbq

    Visited this museum today. It'a real gem in Carlow town. Contains a variety of fascinating exhibits, all really well displayed.
    Our informative guide Dermot made our visit even more interesting.

    Yes, it's modern art and it might not tick all your boxes but there are enough different mediums to guarantee something that will catch your attention. For me it was the digital experience and I loved the tree calendar.

    This is a lovely place to spend an hour of your time, as it's indoors. Lovely curator, full of history. Check out opening times before you visit, as it's all run on a voluntary basis. Wonderful poignant photos of the actual War. ENJOY!

    Visited this very interesting church recently. Both outside and inside are interesting. There are some very fine features inside. I was very lucky to be there for Mass, and hear the very fine choir being accompanied by a fine organist who also played the grand piano.

    Milford Mills and Lake is such a pretty place to visit. We were there on a tranquil summers evening and it was just idyllic and tranquil.
    It was enchanting to stroll along there listening to the birds and the roaring waters and watch the ducks leading their little duckilngs along the water edge and through the waters thenselves.
    Wonderful place, we absolutely loved it. Will definitely go back.

    Had a great experience visiting the farmers market. There were tasting tables in the centre with a variety of foods . Outside was a stall selling cheese made by the seller on his farm including goats and sheep’s cheese.
