Escape the Ordinary:
A Day at Arboretum, Carlow
 |
| The first thing that caught my eye was the colourful urinals in the venue’s toilets! San Francisco artist Clark Sorenson was commissioned to design the sanitary ware with a floral theme. He got it spot-on as will most, if not all, of the male visitors! |
Craving a Refreshing Oasis? Look no further than Arboretum in Leighlinbridge, County Carlow! This haven for all things green and delicious is the perfect escape from the ordinary.
Fuel Your Adventure at Rachel's Café
After your scenic (and perhaps rainy) drive, recharge at Rachel's Café, a champion of seasonal, homemade goodness. From breakfast to late lunch, Rachel's offers a symphony of flavours, all made with love right on-site. With a choice of healthy to hearty, hot to cold, there's something for every palate. Don't forget to leave room for their irresistible homemade sweet treats!

A Garden Center Colossus
While Rachel's (with 600 seats) might be one of Ireland's largest cafes, the true behemoth is the Arboretum Garden Center itself. Prepare to be dazzled by a wonderland of plants, from alpines and rockery wonders to ornamental grasses, climbers, and everything in between. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or a budding enthusiast, Arboretum, with its ten acres, has everything to transform your outdoor (and indoor!) space.
