How many visitors to Ireland make Powerscourt Gardens and Hotel County Wicklow one of their top must see attractions?

Dig deep into the history of this amazing Manor House at Powerscourt and discover The Wingfield Family holders of the title Viscount Powerscourt. They were one of the wealthiest and most powerful families in Ireland. Their estates in Dublin, TYRONE, Wexford and Wicklow totalled over 60,000 acres.

While I too visit the Powerscourt Gardens and enjoy the grandeur of the historical Manor House - Powerscourt Hotel it’s that link with the quiet village of Benburb, County Tyrone that interests me.

Of course I am interested, not only am I a Tourist Guide for Northern Ireland, I live just 30 minutes away from Benburb!

The first supreme champion in the sport of coursing was Lord Lurgan’s (Charles Brownlow) greyhound.

Master McGrath who won the Waterloo Cup on three occasions 1868, 1869 and 1871.

The dog became a household name in Britain and such was his fame that Queen Victoria commanded his appearance at Windsor Castle.

Stories of people being waylaid by the faery folk to places where time passes differently are common in Celtic mythology, and the hawthorn was one of, if not the most likely tree to be inhabited or protected by the Wee Folk!
