Muckross Walled Garden Centre

he Walled Garden Centre, at Muckross, was officially opened in April 2000. Since then, the centre has become a popular destination in its own right. Designed to form an integral part of the world famous Muckross Gardens, the centre opens out onto the Victorian Walled Garden. It is further complemented by the recreation of a mid 19th century parterre* and recently restored Edwardian Glasshouses.

The Walled Garden Centre houses The Garden Restaurant, Mucros Craft Shop, Mucros Weaving, Mucros Pottery and the Conservation Bookbinding workshop. Together, these elements combine to form a very attractive visitor complex.

In recent years, Muckross Craft Workshops have adopted 'Mucros' (the Irish equivalent for Muckross) as a brand name for their high quality goods. The brand has proved very successful, with Mucros pottery, stationery and clothing now available both nationally and internationally.

Why not combine a visit to Mucros Craft Shop, the flagship for the three Mucros Craft Workshops, with a meal in The Garden Restaurant? You will find a wide choice of quality products, value for money and friendly, attentive, service.

* Parterre - a level garden space with flower-beds arranged ornamentally.
