Awards CIÉ Excellence, Tripadvisor Certificate of Excellence, Georgina Campbell Guide recommendation. Testimonial quote “A visit to Kylemore Abbey is a wonderful experience. The refurbished Abbey with its visitor centre is imposing and intimate at the same time. Beautifully done, and very interesting. The small gothic church is as intricate as a mini cathedral, and the gardens are magnificent, and everywhere the views are stunning. With a gift and coffee shop, (and a restaurant in better times), we happily spent the best part of the day there, and loved every minute.” Tripadvisor review Kylemore Abbey & Gardens Ltd SUPPLIERS 52
