Quelques nouvelles informations

Les jardins de Powerscourt figurent en troisième position sur la liste des dix plus beaux jardins du monde établie par le National Geographic. Cette renommée internationale est due aux vues exceptionnelles et à la beauté naturelle du lieu. Les jardins vous offriront une expérience authentique de l’histoire et de la tradition irlandaises.
Lord Powerscourt s’est inspiré de ses fréquentes visites dans les plus grandes demeures seigneuriales européennes pour embellir les jardins du domaine avec des œuvres et des reproductions artistiques provenant de toute l’Europe. La fontaine située au milieu du pittoresque lac Tritone, par exemple, est inspirée de la fontaine de la Piazza Barberini à Rome.
Le style de la grande terrasse en pierre devant Powerscourt House rappelle clairement la Villa Butera en Sicile, ainsi que les escaliers escarpés de Gênes et d’autres villages italiens typiques.
Le Powerscourt Hotel, qui se trouve dans la propriété du Powerscourt Estate, abrite également un authentique pub irlandais traditionnel, le McGills, où sont exposées toutes sortes de pièces et de souvenirs et où sont servies les inévitables pintes de Guinness et le délicieux whisky irlandais, bien sûr !
La porte de style vénitien de Powerscourt est de fabrication italienne et a été réalisée à Venise par Moise dalla Torre. Lord Powerscourt lui-même l’a décrite comme « l’entrée parfaite des jardins ».
Les quatre bustes du jardin clos rappellent les œuvres des grands maîtres italiens Michel-Ange, Léonard de Vinci, Raphaël et Benvenuto Cellini. Il s’agit de reproductions artistiques de sculptures conservées au Vatican, qui ont été réalisées à Rome en 1878.

CE QUE DISENT NOS VISITEURS

This place is amazing. Soo beautiful. We’ve been many times and each time we love it. We chose to come in May but maybe next time we’ll head over in June hopefully to see all the flowers blooming. The walks are soo relaxing and the view is just amazing. This time we stayed for lunch and cannot praise enough their food. Such fresh and tasty soup and sandwiches and yummy desserts. Cannot wait for our next visit as even if it’s far away from where we live and takes almost 3 hours to drive, it’s just soo beautiful ?

We visited Powerscourt gardens for the first time in late October. The walled gardens still had a colourful display of flowers and shrubs, the trees were in wonderful autumn shades and the Japanese gardens were delightful with the Acers looking very attractive. Powerscourt is certainly worth travelling to see if you are in the area.

I’ve been here many years ago and the grounds are just as beautiful as I remembered. The new addition of shops, Avoca cafe, nursery and distillery just adds even more things to do. This is a great place to stop and spend sometime.

This garden was incredible. We went on a very rainy day and it was difficult to really enjoy the beauty that was there. We quickly walked thru the formal gardens, Japanese garden and tower house. The collection of trees were magnificent but it was raining too hard to read all the labels Would definitely go back if we get a chance.

The walled gardens are the most amazing flowers I have ever seen. I could have looked at them for hours. The rest of the grounds are very beautiful and peaceful when there aren’t large tour groups. The lunch at Avoca is very good, fresh and reasonably priced. You can even have some retail therapy at the stores. Again, the most amazing flowers!!!
