Lonely Planet review

This handsome Palladian mansion was home to St Enda's, an experimental Gaelic school established by nationalist poet and 1916 martyr Pádraig Pearse. The fascinating exhibition focusing on Pearse's life and works spent all of 2007 under the refurbisher's tarpaulin but should reopen in mid-2008. The beautiful grounds, gardens and grottos surrounding the house are still open, but you'd want to be a big greenery fan to make the trek out here while the house is still closed.
