Families are invited to hop, skip and jump along a magical Easter Trail at the gorgeous Mount Congreve Gardens in County Waterford this Easter.
On Friday, March 29th, Saturday the 30th, Sunday 31st, and Monday, April 1st children aged between 4 and 11 arriving at Mount Congreve Gardens can enjoy a fun-filled journey of discovery and complete their Easter activity sheet as they navigate an Easter Trail through the magical gardens. Once complete, each child will receive an Easter treat – either an Easter egg or a small plant and they will be entered into a raffle to win a 12-month Family Membership to Mount Congreve Gardens, worth €100, and a JellyCat bunny, from the Secret Gardens Gift Shop.
In addition, the wonderful woodland playground sitting among the canopy of trees on Monty’s Lawn will be open. With basket swings, hammock swings, a climbing tower with an adventure tunnel slide, a balance walk, a seesaw and a boat sitting amongst a sand area and more, there is plenty of opportunity for creative, sensory and imaginative play.
Following the adventures families will enjoy taking a seat at the Stables Café by the Pantry at CLIFF which offers a delicious and nutritious menu for breakfast and lunch for adults and children with ample seating available inside and on the outside terrace at the main Mount Congreve House.
Mount Congreve has been lauded as a ‘great garden of the world’ and the title is certainly fitting to an incredible 70 acres of woodland gardens and 4 acres of walled gardens within a 140-acre estate located 10 minutes outside of Ireland’s oldest City of Waterford

Tickets are from 22.50 for 2 adults and one child and include: – Access to the gardens – A kid’s activity sheet for each child – An Easter egg or small plant for each child – Entry into a raffle for a Family Membership worth €100 and a JellyCat bunny.
