DONERAILE PARK GUIDED TOURS

Visit Doneraile park and walk through 300 years of gardening history. Hear the history of the St. Ledgers and how they shaped the park that we enjoy today.Imagine how the walled garden once looked and discover rare trees.
All the tours are hosted by trained volunteers who are as enthusiastic about the park as you will be.
The park has 500 acres to roam in and discover from the deer park to the court and after all that walking why not enjoy the tea rooms situated in the court yard of the house.
