Introducing Birr

The warm welcome in Birr belies its name and will make you go ‘ahhh’. Two- and three-storey pastel Georgian buildings line its streets. You’ll find good accommodation, eating and drinking options and some interesting shops. You’ll also find Birr Castle, with its surrounding craggy walls and many attractions, right in the centre.
