  • Excellent tour of Lullymore, with a visit to the bog and a chance to try your 'foot' at cutting the turf! All the adults on our tour turned in kids as we went on our train ride. Weather was great...

  • Really fantastic place to while away a few hours with kids. Not just a fantastic outdoor and indoor play area and small petting farm but also some pretty excellent heritage areas giving broad strokes looks at the areas ties to the early Christian period, the 1798 rebellion, famine times and the consignment of the Irish to Australia and finally the bog itself and what it meant to Lullymore and greater Ireland. Well worth the admission price.
  • Absolutely worthy of a visit. Value for money is an understatement. 2 adults and 2 kids we paid 33euro, and got a train ride, a treasure hunt, crazy golf, outdoor park, inside play area, farm area with some animals to look at, and the most beautiful forest walk (suitable for buggies also) along some of the most amazing views and scenery. On any dry day in ireland this is definitely worth a visit. There was so much to see and do, we spent 4 hours here. There's a coffee shop inside with a great menu choice. Plenty of seating and plenty of space. Plenty of car parking spaces also.
  • So much fun! Very exciting place. Interactive. Beautiful bog of Allen! Great for kids. We went recently and were the only people in the park. Awesome experience. Fairy trail is enchanting.
  • Great place, great value! Where would you have both - almost everything a child wants on a weekend (playground, mini golf, mini train, petting farm, indoor activity centre with ballpit, foosball and air hockey, cafe with sandwiches and ice cream) - beautiful nature: both a very cute garden, and a fascinating re-wilded bog nature reserve (look at the photos - we even found sundews!)
  • This was our 3rd or 4th Halloween Happenings event to attend and it was so much fun yesterday (29-10-22). We were lucky enough to have Lydia the witch with us in our carriage..her cackling laugh throughout the train trip was great 😊So glad it's back after been postponed because of covid..Hoping Christmas at Lullymore returns soon as they have the best Santas 🎅
