Six acres of ordered splendour lie within the abbey’s walled garden, which is planted entirely with varieties from the Victorian era and divided in two by a mountain stream. The eastern half includes a formal flower garden, plus restored glasshouses, a bothy and head gardener’s house. In the western half you’ll find one of Ireland’s longest herbaceous borders, as well as a large vegetable garden, fruit trees and a herb garden.
