Adventure Playground...
New for 2010, our giant playground offers hours of entertainment for children of all ages. Two large playgrounds, one large space net, slides, trim trail equipment and sand and water play.
Swimming...
The river is a great place to cool off on those warm summer days. The river varies in depths, and is suitable for all ages. There is a beach leading out to the river where you can sunbathe on the hot sand, build sandcastles with your kids, or just relax near the waters edge.
Nature walks...
There are numerous walks from the park, or within a few minutes drive. There are trails from the campsite that lead up and down the river. The walks are peaceful and secluded. Many different animals, plants and birds can be seen, as well as fish in the river. Another option is to walk to the Avondale house, which offers beautiful grounds, walking trails, fishing, playgrounds and snacks/beverages. Glendalough is a 10 minute drive from the park, where there are endless walks, fishing, horseback riding and much more. Please see our County Wicklow Attractions page for more information.
Frisbee, horseshoes and everything else...
The park offers wide open spaces to play a variety of games. Why not ask reception to have a horseshoe competition one day, and a boat race the next? Please feel free to bring your games from home to play on the park with your family and your new neighbours. |
