The Irish National Stud & Gardens
Discover one of Irelands most treasured equestrian destinations with a visit to the Irish National Stud & Gardens in the heart of County Kildare. Offering a unique glimpse into Irelands world-famous thoroughbred industry, this remarkable experience combines rich racing heritage with beautifully landscaped gardens. Guests can explore the historic stud farm on a guided tour, where you may meet mares, foals and stallions while learning about the breeding and care of Irelands celebrated Thoroughbreds. Visitors may also encounter retired champions who now call the stud home, including Hurricane Fly, Faugheen, Beef or Salmoon and Sizing John. Beyond the stud farm, guests can enjoy time wandering through the serene Japanese Gardens and the peaceful St Fiachra’s Garden.
