Grove Gardens consists of four acres of gardens outside Kells, County Meath and features the clematis walk containing over 300 species of small and large flowered hybrids and herbaceous climatic. The rose garden has over 400 plants of French, English and modern roses. The tropical bird garden and mini zoo is a recent addition to Grove Gardens. A large variety of exotic and rare breeds of birds are housed in purpose built aviaries designed to become part of the gardens and create a unique setting for such a facility. Facilities include tearooms, picnic areas, shop and garden centre. There is full wheelchair access.
Very enjoyable for family picnics, club, school tours, birthday parties and any other celebration. During the first 3 weeks of December, Santa is at Grove Gardens to meet all the children. This is a magical old world experience for families. All children receive a gift.
