Woodlands Fairy Trail

Explore the magical fairy trail located in the gardens and along the Walking Trail in the 40 acres of countryside surrounding Fitzgeralds Woodlands House Hotel & Spa. 

The fairy homes were discovered in 2015 by accident when Farmer Jim was cutting trees on the grounds. However researchers have identified that the Woodlands has been inhabited by mystical creatures for thousands of years. 

Come with the kids and search for more communities within the trees. There is no fee or charge. Maps can be collected at reception.
