Knockabbey Castle & Gardens - Louth Village

Knockabbey Castle & Gardens have been one of Ireland's best kept secrets.

Currently under major restoration with the aid of the Great Gardens of Ireland Restoration Fund, these special gardens are being re-awoken. They reveal some of the finest historical water gardens to be found anywhere in the country, dating back to the 11th century. The gardens contain a wide range of magnificent specimen trees and the tulip tree ranks among the largest and finest in Ireland.

Today you can witness a unique opportunity to see these gardens under their final stages of restoration. Spend an afternoon strolling through 30 acres which include wildflower meadows, herbaceous borders, a Victorian Flower Garden and restored glasshouse. Experience the peace and tranquillity of this magical place.
