Are you planning a trip to Cork? Why not try to find time to visit us at the Ballymaloe Cookery School Gardens.
You may be pleasantly surprised at what you find. There is a lot more here than our cookery school. The entire garden is managed organically. All the 'hungry' plants receive a generous dose of good farm yard manure early in the spring to set them up for the season.
Guided tours can be pre booked for groups.
We also have a number of Gardening Courses here in the school reflecting the philosophy of the gardens and school.
If you are interested in combining Gardening with a pleasant stay in one Ireland's loveliest country houses please visit: 2-day Gardening Course at Ballymaloe House
