days out in Westmeath


days out in Westmeath include two of the most beautiful outdoor gardens in Ireland. Belvedere House & Gardens is surrounded by 160 acres of lake and parkland and is situated on the shore of Lough Ennell. Tullynally Castle is another family favourite day out in Westmeath and the site dates back over 350 years. There are lots of outdoor areas to explore. 

Westmeath is in the Irish province of Leinster and the county lies to the North West of Dublin and within the midland region of Ireland. The county is dominated by castle ruins, giving clue to its long history and heritage as a place of authority for ancient noble families of Ireland. It is said that Westmeath was the ancient meeting place of five old provinces of Ireland. This rich history gives rise to the many museums and heritage centres located throughout the country and it offers some super day out ideas in this region of Ireland.
