About

A 20-acre adventure playground set in mature woodland overlooking Ballyquirke Lough — ziplines, climbing, escape rooms, and cosy cabins at the gateway to Connemara.

Things to Do

Stay Overnight in a Cabin

Fourteen architect-designed wooden cabins tucked into the woodland — studio, family and accessible options, all with ensuite, underfloor heating, electric stove, fully fitted kitchen and complimentary WiFi. Cabin guests can book activities midweek (7 days' advance notice). 15 new luxury cabins coming in 2027.
