Coolwater, a wonderfully artistically designed garden, steps to the beat of a different drum with its breathtaking Water Garden, stunning alpine troughs planted with choice specimens and an almost chimerical West Garden.
Not your usual garden, the West garden would be difficult to describe; however, it enamours everyone with its different approaches to planting. Between this and the Water Garden is an alpine area devoted to over sixty troughs with choice plants. A circular route takes you then around the Water Garden, ending up on one of the patios with a stunning vista of the water, framed by Rockstown Castle on one side and Skule Hill on the other.
One of the most photogenic smaller gardens on the island of Ireland and loved by photographers, owner & gardener, Kevin Begley, gives a guided tour for plant lovers taking up to two hours, depending on your requirements, followed by refreshments, which may even include a free glass of port!
