Locality (close to: Leighlinbridge)
County Carlow is an enchanting, often overlooked county — but none the worse for that. Lots of pubs are available to linger in, and above all a countryside to rival the Haute Gironne or the Tuscany uplands. Its past takes in ancient Gaelic history, the arrival of the Anglo Normans and on through to the 1798 Rebellion.
There’s no shortage of heritage and culture here. You can wander round the environs of the early 13th century Norman castle in the town, or venture over to Browne’s Hill. This is the largest Neolithic, pre-Christian dolmen in Ireland — around 3,500 years old.
The other charms of Carlow are not hard to find. Given its mild climate the place is a haven for gardens and gardeners. If flowers are your particular interest then head for Carlow’s Floral Festival Trail which takes place in August.
Garrison Waterside is centrally located for a number of outdoor activities, including horse riding (and racing), walking, hill walking, swimming (both indoor and out), quads, cycling, golf and, for rainy days, shopping and cinemas in both medieval Kilkenny city and vibrant Carlow town - we are located between the two.
Experience the peace of the countryside with beautiful walks along the River Barrow and the South Leinster Way walking routes.
Altamont Gardens, Mount Juliet golf course and the Kilkenny Craft Trail are all located close by, as are great locations and amenities for cycling, fishing, tennis, swimming and horse riding.
