点评:We visited as a group of 3 and absolutely loved every minute of our time at Kylemore Abbey — it was easily one of the highlights of our trip to Mayo,
Ticket & Shuttle: Admission was €18 per adult, great value covering the Abbey, church, Victorian Walled Garden, and more. The free shuttle bus to the Walled Garden was so convenient, easy access and saved us the walk down, which was brilliant!
The setting is nothing short of breathtaking, nestled between the peaceful waters of Pollacapall Lough and the majestic mountains, the Abbey looks like something from a fairytale. Every turn offers a stunning view, and the whole place has such a calm, serene atmosphere that you can’t help but feel relaxed.
The Abbey itself is beautiful to explore — the rooms are full of history and stories, and the restoration work is incredible. But for us, the Victorian Walled Garden was the absolute star 🌺🌹 It’s immaculately kept, bursting with colour and life, and walking through the glasshouses felt like stepping back in time. The attention to detail is remarkable — you can tell the team there takes such pride in maintaining it.
The grounds are huge and so well looked after — lovely walks, woodland trails, the waterfall, and the peaceful lakeside path. We spent hours wandering and didn’t feel rushed at all. The visitor centre was informative, the café had lovely food with great service, and all the staff we met were friendly and helpful.
Perfect for families, couples, or groups, there’s so much to see and do, and it’s accessible and well-organised throughout. We left feeling refreshed and inspired — truly a special place.
If you’re in Connemara don’t miss it! Well worth the visit, we’ll definitely be back.
翻译:我们三个人结伴前往,在凯尔莫尔修道院的每一刻都让我们流连忘返——这里绝对是我们在梅奥郡之旅中最难忘的亮点之一。
门票与接驳巴士:每位成人门票价格为18欧元,这个价格相当划算,因为可以参观修道院、教堂以及维多利亚式围墙花园等多个景点。前往围墙花园的免费接驳巴士也非常便利,省去了我们步行下山的麻烦,实在太棒了!
那里的环境美得令人惊叹。这座修道院坐落在宁静的波拉卡帕尔湖与巍峨的群山之间,宛如童话世界中的场景。无论从哪个角度观赏,都能看到绝美的景致;整个地方洋溢着宁静祥和的氛围,让人不禁放松下来。
修道院本身也值得细细游览——各个房间都承载着悠久的历史与动人的故事,修复工作也堪称完美。不过对我们而言,最令人心动的还是那座维多利亚风格的围墙花园 🌺🌹 它被打理得井然有序、完美无瑕。这里色彩缤纷、生机盎然,漫步在温室中仿佛穿越回了过去。这里的细节处理堪称出色——能看出工作人员为维护这一切而倍感自豪。
园区面积辽阔且打理得井然有序:有迷人的步行道、林间小径、瀑布,还有宁静的湖畔小路。我们在这里闲逛了好几个小时,却丝毫没有匆忙之感。游客中心提供了许多有益的信息,咖啡馆里的食物美味可口,服务也十分周到。我们遇到的所有工作人员都友好又乐于助人。
这里非常适合家庭、情侣或团体游玩,有诸多值得参观和体验的项目,整个景区交通便利且管理井然有序。离开时我们感到心旷神怡、备受鼓舞——这真是一个特别棒的地方。
如果你来到康尼马拉,千万别错过哦!绝对值得一游,我们以后一定还会再来的。
