Irish National Stud & Japanese Gardens

For well over 100 years, the pride of Tully has been a working stud farm, its central objective being to produce for Ireland thoroughbreds capable of being crowned champions at home and abroad.



But the Irish National Stud is far more than just a centre of equine excellence. It is also home to some of Ireland's finest natural treasures, in particular the breathtakingly beautiful Japanese Gardens, the finest of their kind in Europe. The gardens trace the passage of a soul from birth to death and beyond, at the same time providing a meeting place for the cultures of East and West.



Visitors can also savour the serene and spiritual experience provided by one of the Stud's more recent additions, St Fiachra's Garden, a stunningly raw representation of our country's singular landscape.



From horses to horticulture, the Irish National Stud offers a unique experience that can be enjoyed at your own leisure or as part of a guided tour.
