Brigit's Garden is close to our home and a really wonderful place to visit. In addition to being an inspirational garden, which celebrates the four seasons and Celtic legends and St. Brigit, the gardens have a lovely cafe which serves very good food. Even on a slightly rainy day it is a delight to wander through. It can be busy, but even so there's a quiet spot to be found somewhere.
