Join me as I guide you around my home county and a place close to my heart. County Laois (pronounced Lee-sh !!) in the Irish midlands is home to historical houses and gardens, scenic mountain drives and pretty country villages. One of Ireland's first 'plantation' counties, you will visit places with historic and cultural significance to modern-day Ireland - from the 12th Century ruins at The Rock of Dunamase to the Famine Museum at Donaghmore. I will bring you to the area where I reside, and you will visit the heritage towns of Durrow & Abbeyleix or get a panoramic view of the county from the top of The Slieve Bloom Mountains. It would be my pleasure to show you my home county, take you 'off the beaten track' and discover some of the hidden gems of our beautiful country.
Pickup at 9am. The Rock of Dunamase is the first stop after pick-up - these fascinating ruins offer wonderful views across the rich fertile farmland of The Irish Midlands. A little further south is Heywood Gardens, Ballinakill - an easy walk through 50-acre gardens designed by Lutyens & finished in 1912 featuring a sunken walled garden with a pond. Durrow Village & Abbeyleix Heritage Town offer a glimpse into Ireland's past and its history of landlord and tenant. Lunch at a local pub/cafe. At Donaghmore Famine Workhouse Museum you will learn about one of the worst periods of Ireland's history through the eyes of those impoverished people who were living in 'The Workhouse' during the late 1800s (seasonal opening) Return to original pickup point 5pm - this is an 8-hour day trip.
