Located in Phoenix Park, not many people know about this wonderful place. An oasis of peace and nature! Here there is a small lake covered with water lilies, you can have a coffee on the terrace next to it, or eat something. Wonderful Walled garden not far. The house, when there are no guests, is open to the public. The parking is large enough to accommodate all visitors.

We had an amazing time in this wonderful garden and estate. It was a great spot to go to for a little walk but also to see some pure herbs and a well kept garden with a fountain. The boat house next to the estate also offer a wide array of snacks, food options and hot/cold beverages. We were glad to have a ice cream also. The house is next to a lake with some ducks chilling around. We'd recommend going there for an afternoon and enjoy the estate and gardens. It's open until 5 o clock and looks like a secure area.

Had a wonderful couple of hours at Farmleigh. Had a guided tour of the house with a really excellent tour guide. Amazing place and history. Afterwards, lunched at The Boathouse. Were served lovely food as we sat by the lake and watched the ducks. Thoroughly recommend a visit.

A lovely day out plenty of places to picnic and beautifully maintained gardens. The children loved the duck family and the different farm animals.

Great place to visit, give your self about 2 hours, the walked garden and glasshouse are quite superb, the grounds are very well kept and loads of parking, we were there for the discover Japan exhibition and enjoyed it immensely, well worth 2 hours of anyones time,

Beautiful gardens to walk around & enjoy the scenery. Nice coffee shop but you have to find a vacant bench to consume a sausage roll & biscuit cake. Was very nice too. MM ☕

A lovely spot for a walk. Beautiful gardens, a nice little lake with a boathouse café. There are some horses and sculptures and a good few benches to sit down.

Beautiful gardens and walks you can buy tickets to view the house we have seeing the house many of time we’re are from Dublin but if it’s your first time yes I would recommend buying tickets to go into the beautiful house 👌🏻🍃

You can definitely visit the house but I would look out for events to attend to, such as concerts. The grounds are much impressive though than the house. On weekends, there is food market setup. If you are in Phoenix Park, it is definitely worth extending your trip to see it.

A lovely spot in the Phoenix Park for a gentle walk. Sunken and walled gardens closed at the moment however. Excellent but expensive lakeside cafe.

Went to Farmleight house to take a walk today,but unfortunately, it started to rain nearly as soon as we got there. We went in for something to eat in the fab restaurant in front of the pond. It is a beautiful setting to have food. The many different coloured flowers in the gardens are breathtaking and varied. We will need to return as we only got to see a small part of the grounds. See you soon.

Beautiful place to explore or to sit down and have a picnic in!

Beautiful big estate house, free tour and free parking. Nice walks and a wee cafe to grab a coffee and a snack by the lake. Worth a visit if you’re in the Phoenix park.

We went on Sunday, plenty of parking, lovely woodland walk, Sunday food market, a lovely exhibition in the Gallery all summer: handmade wooden furniture / art made here in Ireland at Atlantic Technical University,

A vibrant celebration of India's rich culture and heritage came alive at Farmleigh Park. The India Day festivities were a captivating fusion of colors, flavors, and traditions. From mesmerizing performances to delectable cuisine, the event offered a sensory journey into the heart of India. The joyful atmosphere, adorned with traditional clothing and lively music, truly captured the spirit of the nation. India Day at Farmleigh Park was a delightful showcase of unity in diversity, leaving a lasting impression of cultural exchange and harmony.

Great gentle peaceful place if you go during quiet periods. Cafe open for decent enough freshly made sandwiches, large general car park, & pretty grounds. 6 portaloo toilets - all clean & with toilet paper, one for disabled folks - located in the staff carpark behind the Courtyard.

One of the best places to visit in Dublin. It was formerly one of the Dublin residences of the Guinness family. The estate of 32 ha consists of extensive private gardens with stands of mature cypress, pine and oak trees, a boating pond, a walled garden, a sunken garden, out offices and a herd of rare native Kerry cattle.

While the house is currently closed due to Covid, the grounds and gardens are well worth a visit. Admission is free and there is ample free parking. The expansive grounds are mostly parkland and paddocks that are managed for wildlife and pollinators 🦋🌼🦗🐝🐞🐛. The walled garden is less formal and manicured than that in Ashtown Castle in the adjacent park but is full of pollinator friendly plants and herbs. The gardeners are very friendly and happy to share their knowledge with interested visitors. Looking forward to coming back when restrictions are lifted.

What a beautiful home ! My tour guide shared so much history about the home- both current and past. It was delightful. The grounds are awesome as well- a nice walk around. Be sure to see the alpacas!

It was a beautiful experience, the high walls the beautiful furniture is out of this world and history behind it compliments it all

Great place to visit many ppl don't know about this place it's inside the Phoenix park. Beautiful graders, clock Tower, lakeside, kids can enjoy some animals as well Lama, Horses, cow, Duck. Nice family day out place.

Very nice place ! Walk and enjoy the life

I love the Phoenix Park so much. So many beautiful places to walk around, Farmleigh being one of them ... Love it

Well worth a visit. The Office of Public Works should be commended for the work they have done here. Lovely staff who obviously enjoy what they are doing

What a wonderful time at Farmleigh house with the Christmas Carols. The house was open to the public, giving access to the main hall, the beautiful glass conservatory (ideal for reception), the beautiful dining room, and the magnificent library. The library is home to treasure books such as a first edition of Gulliver travel. It is typically accessible to the head of state and some students for their research.

Enjoyed a tour of the grand House at Farmleigh with my wife and granddaughter and marvelled at the wealth the Guinness family had in the 1880's. It was only their holiday home !! Tour was completed with lunch in the boat house cafe and a walk in the gardens. Access to the grounds is free and not expensive for the guided tour of the house. Enjoyed our lunch and highly recommend a visit.

Had a tour of Farmleigh House and it was so interesting and our guide was excellent and obviously loves her job. So delighted I went. Grounds are beautiful and also enjoyed the food at the small restaurant and well served. Well worth a visit.

Lovely grounds and coffee shop. Great all year around but stunning in the spring.

Lovely parkland, gardens and cafe in wonderful surroundings in walking distance from the city centre.

Blossoms on Japan day were pretty fab. A terrific day for a short walk and a peaceful sit.

Went on a lovely stroll around the estate can't wait for nice weather to come back when gardens and house is open I'll be certainly picking a day where we can spend the day pack a picnic

Farmleigh in Phoenix park is always beautiful no matter what season you visit. OPW keep the estate & house in great condition. Dubliners are so lucky to have this place on our doorstep. A must visit if in Dublin.

Really amazing during Christmas time, to walk through the House and enjoy the festive decorations.

Love it most enjoyable place to be if you need a bit of time out from the hustle and bustle ,beautiful gardens,bring your picnic and enjoy nature in this amazing space 🥰

A lovely spot... met with friends . Kids enjoyed playing by the fountain..we strolled and had a coffee. Love the Phoenix Park anyway and this fella was keeping watch over all that were in and out of Farleigh 🦌

Informative and interesting tour around Farmleigh House Gardens with Emer... The gardens are beautiful and the stories of times gone by make them come alive 👌Thanks again!

Amazing Park, there is a car park inside. There are horses donkeys, swans, ducks.. There is a small lake and the garden. Magnolia trees are so lovely. There is a house you can visit when restrictions are lifted, and a coffee shop

Lovely to stroll around the walled garden or sunken garden. Grab a coffee or ice cream en route.

This wonderful house and estate was presented to the people of Ireland by the Guinness family. It's located within the beautiful Phoenix Park, 20 minutes cycling distance from Dublin's city centre. The house is beautifully decorated with furnishings and artworks and the grounds are well worth exploring, especially to see the mature trees, pond and walled garden.

Beautiful, quaint place. If you want to escape the bustle of the city and annoying people, rent bikes from Phoenix bikes and go to this hidden gem. A place straight out of classic literature, very peaceful and healing.
