Reviews
Highly recommended botanical garden! They have a truly beautiful botanical exhibit/museum—a must-visit if you love nature and plants. We also ate at the restaurant inside and the food was very good; honestly, quite reasonably priced for Ireland. The service was lovely, and to top it off, we even got to see a wedding…
