Introducing County Laois
Most people see Laois (pronounced ‘leash’) as a green blur outside the car window as they zoom along the N7 or N8 to sexier sites west. But get off the main roads, and you’ll discover the hidden corners of Ireland’s heartland: surprising heritage towns, the unspoiled Slieve Bloom Mountains and a lace-work of rivers and walkways.
