Still a work in progress but a very nice place for an easy walk. Vibrant flowers and a good variety of trees and other plants can be found across the grounds. You could go here every few weeks and see something different. They also offer free tours from time to time so it is worth checking their website for that. There are a cafe and toilets on site. Note that the drive way is a single lane with small areas to pull over every so often.

A great experience thanks to a wonderful guide with a happy mixture of information and story. Also weather was good. Coffee shop excellent. Will certainly revisit to see seasonal changes

Living in Wicklow have visited the National Botanic Gardens several times over the years. Visited again last weekend and all the flowers are in bloom. Fantastic place to visit and take in the Wicklow views while strolling through all the fauna. There is a coffee shop and public toilets all very accessible. A real gem, really recommend you add it to your Garden of Ireland visits.

Quite a nice surprise, first time visiting the gardens and really like how they are laid out. Looks like there is interesting views and walks all year round in the garden... have seen images of the rhododendron walk and they are amazing, worth visiting again for it.

One way drive in and out so be patient and be prepared to reverse for buses as lane is very narrow. Free guided tours that need prebooked online. Awesome garden and tour well worth going on. Don't miss this place if in the area.
