Explore Malahide Castle & Gardens, a medieval fortress on a sprawling demesne. Tour the castle's antiques and paintings, then walk the gardens and the fairy trail.
Full description
Malahide Castle is a medieval fortress set within roughly 260 acres of parkland, filled with antiques and paintings inside and surrounded by maintained gardens. The estate suits families, with a fairy trail among the walks, and it also hosts concerts in its grounds.
Reviewers recommend the full ticket that includes the castle interior and note the scenic paths and organised events. Because the grounds are large and the walking is moderate, plan around two hours to see the castle and gardens properly.

A very pleasant second visit to castle and gardens - the first about 15 years ago. Gardens were lovely and we enjoyed butterfly area. Walking with wheelchair through grounds was easy. Enjoyed exploring. Found some fascinating spiral feathers. Saw squirrels and purchase afternoon tea and souvenirs.
