March 2016 – Irish Impressions, #5


Belvedere House Gardens & Park, Westmeath

“An excellent day out with a difference. Belvedere House Gardens and Park offers something for young and old.

Open daily, all year round, visitors can enjoy over 10 km of safe and serene walks, a Georgian Villa, a Victorian Walled Garden, Fairy Garden, 3 Children’s Playgrounds, Gift Shop, several picnic areas and a licensed café operated by Catoca Fine Foods & Giftware. Whether you are part of a gardening group, historical society, active retirement association, family gathering or group of friends, a visit to Belvedere is a superb day with a difference. Annual Membership also available.”  [Source: Belvedere House Garden & Park brochure]

I took these shots on March 8, 2016 – three hours well spent.

 

Additional information:

A café with tasty meals/snacks and beverages – enjoy!

A lovely gift shop – isn’t this leather-bound notebook the right (birthday) gift for a writer? (even 2 days after her birthday)  😉

  1. Fantastic photos — not just these, but the posts before this, too. Amazing place — I’d love to see it in living color!

    • Thank you very much for the praise, Joey.
      The light changes frequently; a view fascinating you one second, will fascinate you for a different reason just a second later. If you liked Belvedere House in winter – you’ll love it in spring, summer and autumn.

  2. I liked the water in background, the Green parts of nature and the benches to rest upon nd view the paths, Karen. Hope you have a happy rest of the week!
