Mount Congreve Gardens

Donated to the state by Ambrose Congreve, this is a local treasure. The gardens are great any time of the year, and the gift shop (Foxford), and coffee shop are all excellent. A go-to destination in Waterford.

We really enjoyed there. Different trees and plants. It is very interesting and beautiful.

Had afternoon tea today for a friends baby shower at The Stables Cafe at Mount Congreve. I could not recommend them more. Nelson was a pleasure to deal with. All the staff were so friendly and helpful. They were so accommodating and gave us a gorgeous private room. The food was incredible and there was so much for everyone. Fantastic value for money and such a beautiful place to celebrate any occasion.

Visited this beautiful house and gardens over St Patrick’s weekend. I thought the gardens were beautiful with lovely little trails to follow and lots of stunning specimen trees. If you love Magnolias and Camellias you will adore it. The house is stunning too, I’d love to do a tour of it too if this becomes possible in the future. I thought the audio presentation on the family who owned the house and gardens was very interesting and well done, the Stables cafe and gift shop I thought was great too - food was very good and normal kind of prices. It’s on the Greenway too so it would make such a lovely drop off point for refreshments. A really lovely place for a family day out, highly recommend.

The gardens are absolutely gorgeous!!! I walked around for two hours even though it was raining! I have so many photos that will definitely become paintings! There is a very good selection of products in the shop! The food is very good. Hot chocolate is delicious! The banoffee didn’t have much bananas… The employees don’t seem to know what they need to do. But maybe they were in training.
