WOODSTOCK, ROTHE HOUSE & LISMORE GARDENS Your first visit today is at The Gardens at Woodstock in Innistiogue was opened to the public in 2007. The privately owned garden offers you the ability to see plants as they grow and develop. The terraced flower garden lies to the western side of the walled garden and was completed in the early 1850's by Lady Louisa Tighe. It comprises three long terraces, formerly devoted to annual bedding schemes. In Kilkenny visit the Rothe House & Gardens. The Rothe House Garden is a recreation of a historic garden from the 17th century. It is the only urban garden of this period which is open to the public. After some free time in Kilkenny visit Lismore Gardens, the Irish home of the Duke of Devonshire. The lower garden provides woodland shelter for a fine collection of shrubs, including magnolias and camellias. The two gardens are delightfully linked by the staircase to the Riding House built in 1631. Return to Waterford in time for dinner this evening. DINNER & OVERNIGHT: GRANVILLE HOTEL, WATERFORD
