Have I told you I love spring? I love longer days and nature comes back to life. I love that grass is getting greener, trees blossom, little lambs run in the fields. Ireland is beautiful in every season, but every ray of sunshine makes it one of the most beautiful places in the world.
Today we’ve visited Altamont Gardens, they are apparently the most romantic gardens in Ireland. I’m not sure if that’s true, but for sure they are the most relaxed ones. I really enjoy gardens where nature takes over and grow quite freely, but you can still notice the concept of the gardener.
This peacock was noisy one!
This one on the other hand looked more like a sculpture. I really like how it fits in the surrounding, almost like a chameleon.
The cafe in Walled Garden was so cute, with chickens running around and rose pergolas. The vegetable soup with cheddar scone was delicious. I hope we will be able to go back there in the summer. If you are around Carlow, you should defenitly stop by.

Lovely photos! Spring is my favorite season too! I’ve been meaning to get down to Wilanow palace here in Warsaw because the gardens are supposed to look beautiful right now as well.

Thank you Joy. I’ve been to Warsaw only briefly and I’ve never got to Wilanów (ashamed), but any gardens look gorgeous in the spring.

Ja uwielbiam ogrody irlandzkie. Magnolie u nas trochę już kwitną, ale ciągle się trzymają, póki co narcyzy przekwitły, ale wszystkie drzewa aktualnie kwitną i jest tak pięknie aż słów brak.
