Burtown House & Gardens & the Green Barn
Review
Burtown House & Gardens in Athy, Co. Kildare, stands as a testament to Ireland's rich heritage. This early Georgian Villa, not only significant as the birthplace of the Quaker movement, offers a fascinating journey through history on multiple levels. Visitors to Burtown can immerse themselves in the past through both house and garden tours, each offering a unique glimpse into the property's historical and horticultural significance. Adding to its charm, Burtown's new parkland trails and Sculpture Park are an exceptional addition, promising to become a favorite among families seeking an ideal day out. These trails blend scenic beauty with historical intrigue, making for a memorable experience. A highlight of the Burtown experience is Jo’s Pantry at the Green Barn. This restaurant, famed for its popularity to the point where reservations are strongly recommended, serves up the finest seasonal produce, much of which is sourced directly from Burtown's own walled garden.
