What you can expect

Take a self-guided tour around the farm, museums, mazes, nature walks, and playgrounds, and see farm animals. Enjoy the peaceful countryside of the Wicklow hills, only an hour south of Dublin.

Crack the clues and solve the riddles of a treasure hunt with real treasure at the end and learn about native trees on the fairy tree trail. You are given a self-guided map of the farm and the kids really enjoy the puzzles and clues as they learn all about nature at the same time.

Keep the kids occupied with two fun mazes and playgrounds as you wander around the farm. Feeding the farm animals at 2.30pm with your tour guide is a big hit with all the family and can include bottle feeding lambs depending on the time of year. Farm animals include piglets and mama pig, sheep and lambs, hens and chicks, geese, turkeys, ducks, horses, and a donkey.

Learn about biodiversity in both the natural and farmed environments and how we are all interwoven in a web of life. Take a self-guided walk around the beautiful woodland walks exploring native trees and woodlands, common wildflowers and insects, ponds, bog land, wetlands, farming for nature, and sustainable practices on site, regenerative agriculture, forest therapy, and more.

Take a walk around the museums and an imaginative trip into a by-gone era and try to envisage how craftsmen plied their trade when farming life depended on horse-drawn machinery and hand-made materials. An educational stroll around the museums will leave you with a sense of wonder and respect for a time of hard work and worth-while craftsmanship.

The large two-story barn, at the center of a working hill-farm, exhibits implements and tools spanning 200 years of local farming history. An extensive and informative presentation of prints and photographs dating back to the time of the Famine, are also on display. The ground floor contains a fine collection of horse-drawn implements, from plows and harrows to carts and traps.

The bottle museum was established in 1985 and holds a very large collection of antique 19th and early 20th-century Irish bottles, jars, and vessels, some of which were excavated on the farm. Dating from the 16th century, the Old Farmhouse was a safe-house for Irish rebels, such as Michael Dwyer, in the 1798 rebellion. Genuine weapons, including pikes, are on display.

The Farmhouse is fully restored with original furniture and utensils in the bedroom, dairy, and kitchen. It was last lived in by the Seanchai (Story Teller) Tom O’Neill.
