Sometimes, all you need for a memorable summer holiday is a blanket, picnic hamper, delicious treats and a beautiful place to sit down and take the weight off your feet.
This summer, The Heritage are offering the perfect treat for a sunny day with their History, Heritage & Hampers package.
Set in the countryside just outside the pretty village of Killenard in Co Laois, The Heritage is an impressive 5-star hotel with a wealth of excellent facilities, the ultimate location for a break away from the hustle and bustle.
This summer, History, Heritage & Hampers offers history buffs, gourmands and nature lovers the ultimate opportunity to get out and explore all that the picturesque Irish countryside has to offer.
Guests will be given the warmest of welcomes as they check in to their deluxe double room, before sitting down to a delicious Cream Tea, complete with local Laois confectionaries and jams.
Completely relaxed and at ease, guests can continue to experience the very best that Laois has to offer with a private tour of Emo Court, House & Gardens, to take in the beautiful gardens, parklands, lawns and lakes, before choosing the perfect picnic spot to savour the delights of a Heritage Picnic Hamper and watch the world go by.
After an afternoon of history and heritage, guests can look forward to a spot of pampering with unlimited access to The Heritage Spa Experience, a sensory journey blending heating and cooling sensations that leaves the body soothed, relaxed and reinvigorated, and full access to The Club with its pool, Jacuzzi, sauna and steam room.
