Kia Ora Mini Farm, Gorey, Wexford
Carol1ne Says: would thoroughly recommend a day out at this farm for all the family. My childrne wanted to go back every day, loved the fire engine ride and their favourite animals were the pigs who kept following us around. The staff were really nice and it meant a nice relaxing day for...
SabrinaSummerville Says: The ruins of this fortified Church are a stunning site to explore in Templetown, overlooking the sea in the Ring of Hook area. Templetown is just before you enter the Hook peninsula and you will pass through it en route to Hook.The ruins are situated almost directly opposite...
SabrinaSummerville Says: Anyone who's read about the adventures of te Knights Templar will have to pay a visit to Templetown. Just think of the origin of that name and you will immediately realise that the Knights once had a base here. The lands in this area were given to them by King Henry II and...
Dabs Says: On our way into Wexford we stopped by the Johnstown Castle Gardens for a walk through the grounds. The castle, built for the Grogan-Morgan family between 1810-1855, is not open to visitors as it now houses an agricultural college, but the grounds are open to the public and...
Dabs Says: As we were wandering around Wexford we came across a couple of things that date back to the time of the Normans at the north end of town on Westgate and Selskar Avenue.Westgate Tower is the only tower remaining of the original five gateways in the Norman and Viking town...

Taste Restaurant Wexford: Lovely setting, great service, delicious food!
pjmurphy Says: The first thing which strikes you when you visit Taste is the picturesque surroundings, overlooked by the historical ruins of Selskar Abbey, and just a stroll from the Westgate Heritage Centre.On our last visit it was a gorgeous summers day, so we dined in the lovely outdoor...
Templars Inn: Warmly Welcoming
SabrinaSummerville Says: Templar's Inn is a great little country hostelry that I've been visiting on and off for twenty years or more. It has changed hands several times, and the quality waxes and wanes with the various owners.As at November 2009, the place is onnce again a real little gem.We...
Le Tire Bouchon: Cozy French bistro
Dabs Says: Le Tire Bouchon (French for corkscrew) is a lovely French bistro along the main shopping street in Wexford, we decided to go here for dinner based on good marks on Menu Pages. We didn't have a reservation but we stopped by earlier in the afternoon and made one at the bar for...
orlikins Says: Lots of English/Welsh hen & stags come over to Wexford for a lost weekend. Unlike Dublin, hens & stag parties are tolerated in Wexford (within reason). Harpers will take hens, but i dont think they would take a big stag party. Well I suppose you could bring plastic willies,...
Downtown wexford: Wexford Pubs
Stonefinder1 Says: Most pubs in Wexford were open from 6pm tp 12:30 pm most people just came buy grabbed a coule of beers and gone. Irish music is around you just have to search for it anything really, shorts are frowned on though
Dabs Says: As this was only our 2nd day in Ireland and still getting used to driving on the opposite side of the road, we didn't want to spend a lot of time driving around looking for a parking spot. We spotted a public car park at White's Hotel, it was 10€ for us to park for 5 hours,...
spongefaceforchpants Says: this is a wonderful shop with lovely items for very reasinable prices and not only that but the service is great. you dont even need to go buy anything just pop in for a chat! anything from 1euro up to 100 euro
orlikins Says: Smirting is a combination of the words smoking + flirting, geddit? It started when people had to go out for a ciggie after the ban was enforced, and got chatting to fellow smokers outside on the street, eyes meeting across a cloud of blue nicotine... ;) So you may just meet...
Dabs Says: We came across a couple of statues as we were traveling through Wexford. The first statue we saw was near the site of the former bull ring, it commemorates the "gallant men of Wexford who fought for Ireland's freedom in 1798" according to a nearby plaque. I assume this...
SabrinaSummerville Says: If you follow the Ring of Hook drive, you will inevitably arrive at Hook Head and accordingly Hook Lighthouse.I visit here regularly as it's a magnificent place to come at any time of the year.Even on a Summer's day it's a bit blustery and the wind whips up the waves around...
Stonefinder1 Says: Great Views, the water is so clear and you can see for miles, There are guided tours hourly there are also restrooms, a gift shop and Cafe, You can also go to the rocky beach area and look for live shells, have a picnic etc, there were also numerous people diving there.

Dabs Says: There is a tourist office located near the River Slaney at the end of Bride Street on Crescent Quay. As we didn't have much time, we just picked up a map and wandered around for a bit, I think there was a sign for a guided walking tour but we had missed it.
caseyd4 Says: By far and away the best time to visit wexford is the Oper Festival, Held from the last week of October till the end of the second in November. The festival not only boasts one of the biggest Opera Festival gatherings in Europe, but also in recent years the beginning of the...
