Bunratty Manor in Bunratty

24/12/2025: I took my wife here for an afternoon stroll on Friday 20/12/24. It was pretty busy with Santa visits for little ones and their parents but the whole vibe was very pleasant. We had a very reasonably priced bite to eat, the staff were friendly and chatty, the food was just fine. Entry to the park was a little shy of €40 for two adults. At first I thought this was a little pricey but by the end it was well worth it. We didn’t go to the castle. Seen it before. Very nice. We walked around the folk park. The lights and decorations were lovely. It was still light out so I’d say they were wonderful in the dark. We walked around the typical parts then went off around the rest. It was lovely. The deer were fantastic with huge antlers, we met a couple of very friendly donkeys and learned from a very helpful guide that both the HB house and the church were transported there from Dublin and Tipperary respectively and rebuilt. The house is beautiful in my opinion but I like that older style. Overall a lovely, relaxing and peaceful stroll in a very well maintained park. I would highly recommend a visit.

24/12/2025: Amazing, great tour, you just have to book in advance. I'll be back again.
