Review of: Illnacullen (Garinish Island), Glengarriff, County Cork, Ireland

4/5 (minimum 1)

by Fin on 06 Jul 2008

Garden lovers from around the world will know of this treasure of a island garden in Bantry Bay and there is much excellent information about it on the web. Just wanted to say that apart from the garden, which is wonderful, the most remarkable thing is the setting. We visited on a beautiful day in June so we were lucky but the situation is quite spectacular. A short ferry ride across calm and blue sea with stunning mountains all around, it seemed like some exotic tropical paradise until we saw the numerous seals enjoying themselves on the nearby rocks. The ferry ride is not cheap but well worth it.
