our ten Gardens

The Secret Gardens of Sligo provide a wonderful opportunity for all garden lovers to do what they enjoy most - peek over a wall, sneak through a gate and explore an unknown garden to their hearts' content.

The Gardens vary in size, style and content and are generally works in progress. and many have been created on a shoestring. Some are very old, others relatively new, but they all have this in common: their owners are passionate about them, and each one is the owner’s personal journey through horticulture and design, different plants and palettes, and how to make good use of the site, soil and situation that chance has given them. Each garden is a pleasure to visit and offers a different experience. There are two new gardens added this year - one in Collooney and the other at Hazelwood.

Since we started, we have raised over €63,000 for the various charities chosen by our garden owners, and we would like to thank all the visitors who have made this possible.
