Kilruddery House (Bray)

Killruddery House is a hidden gem!  Lots to see and explore in the gorgeous gardens of this lovely house - leisurely walks, hills to roll down, the maze, the sandpit and adjacent picnic area, the pigs, the chickens, the lovely Tea Room.  

There are loads of things on this summer that are really family friendly, such as falconry displays (25 May/27 July/31 August); sheep shearing (8/9 June); The Enchanted Garden Festival (16/16 June), Paper Princess (21 July), Kids Gardening and Pesto Making Workshop (5 July) and the Groove Festival (6/7 July). They have a farmers market there too at the weekends. 

Tickets to the garden only for adults cost €6.50 and children (12 and under) are free. Costs more to do a tour of the house. Definitely one to go to if you have not been before. We went this week and the gardens were bathed in rare summer sun - the whole place was magical.
