Burtown House, an early Georgian villa, is surrounded by lush flower, vegetable and woodland gardens with beautiful park and farmland walks. “It is rare to find one of these houses still in the possession of the descendants of the family that built it. Burtown is one of these treasures, passed down through the generations and still very much a family home”. The gardens at Burtown are unusual in that they were worked by three generations of the family; the late Wendy Walsh, one of Ireland’s finest botanical artists; Wendy’s daughter the painter Lesley Fennell, and her son James, a professional photographer. http://burtownhouse.ie/

When Colonel William Hall Walker set up his stud farm at Tully in 1900, he employed rather eccentric techniques: drawing up a horoscope for each newborn foal and, if he didn’t like the stars, immediately selling it irrespective of lineage or physique. Results proved interesting – he became the most successful racehorse breeder of the age! Today, what is now the Irish National Stud Farm takes a somewhat different approach to producing champion thoroughbreds but still excels in breeding global stars of the turf. In the heart of racing country in County Kildare, it is the third-largest breeder of thoroughbreds in the world. https://irishnationalstud.ie/

Kilkenny Castle, Ireland built in 1195 to control a fording-point of the River Nore and the junction of several route-ways. It was a symbol of Norman occupation and in its original thirteenth-century condition it would have formed an important element of the defences of the town with four large circular corner towers and a massive ditch, part of which can still be seen today on the Parade. http://www.kilkennycastle.ie/
