altamount gardens

Delightful formal and informal gardens at Altamount House which dates to the late 17th Century. The gardens convey a sense of tranquility and timeless beauty both visually and with a rapture of scents. Tender lawns reach to the large, manmade lake whose perimeter walk provides ever changing vistas with rare trees, shrubs and bountiful wild life. A large wild garden with many rare shrubs lead to a dramatic ice-age glen overlooking the River Slaney walk. Facilities: Weekend gardening courses. Homemade teas on Sundays
