Ballymaloe Cookery School Gardens

Ballymaloe Cookery School Gardens are situated in the rolling East Cork countryside, near the small village of Shanagarry. The gardens which date back to the 19th century have been carefully restored. The oustanding formal herb garden with its array of culinary and medicinal plants is the largest in Ireland.

Other attractions include the formal vegetable and fruit gardens, Celtic maze, and pond garden. A wonderful double herbaceous border leads to the spectacular shell house. Both the farm and gardens are managed organically.
