The great outdoors await on a cottage holiday in County Laois!
For those hell-bent on encountering the natural beauty of County
Laois, head to the Slieve Bloom Mountains; an inspiring series of
peaks thought to form the back bone of central Ireland. These tree
peppered hills are a superb spot for a walk, with colour coded
trails criss-crossing for miles across the rugged wilderness.
Alternatively, pedal your way along the Laois/ Kilkeeny border as
part of the 'Elephant and Castle Trail', a moderately
challenging cycle route which passes the beautiful Nore Valley and
the majestic gardens of Heywood House.
If its adventure you want, nothing beats a holiday in the rural
county of Laois. However, those just looking to relax or do some
gentler exploration are also well catered for. Take a daytrip to
the Emo County Villa; loiter beside the water in Castletown; tuck
into fine Irish fare in Portlaoise, or do very little besides take
in the exquisite views from the comfort of your County Laois
holiday cottage.
The choice really is yours with a cottage holiday in central
Ireland so find and book your dream Irish holiday cottage in County
Laois today with Sykes Cottages!
