A fantastic green oasis in the urban landscape, we had a curated tour by the amazing Sarah who went above and beyond in entertaining our group of Adults and children. Lovely to see animals, fruits, vegetables and flowers at the peak of the season. There is also a small farmers market and a restaurant using locally grown produce which were nice to browse and eat at, though the restaurant/cafe was busy.

Airfield Estate is a beautiful escape from the buzz of Dublin. The grounds are incredibly well maintained, with lovely walking paths, flower gardens, and wide-open spaces that are perfect for kids to run around. The working farm is a highlight — especially the cows, and chickens, and it’s great to see how food is produced sustainably. The café serves delicious, fresh meals made with produce from the estate — highly recommend the brunch! Staff are friendly and helpful, and there’s a calm, relaxed vibe throughout. A perfect spot for families, couples, or even a solo stroll with a coffee in hand. Can’t wait to come back in a different season to see how the gardens change!

Yesterday we spent a truly memorable day at Airfield Estate in Dundrum — it was one of those rare places where you can relax, learn, and enjoy real experiences as a family. We absolutely loved all the talks and tastings — from the Egg Talk at 10:00 🐔 to the fresh milk sampling at 10:30 🥛, every detail was engaging and thoughtfully presented. The Teddy Bear Picnic was a hit with the kids 🧸, and watching the sheepdogs in action was just brilliant. A special thank you and huge shoutout to our wonderful guide — her passion and knowledge made the day even more meaningful 💚. That said, we’d suggest adding more clearly marked stands with maps and up-to-date schedules around the estate. It would make planning the visit on-site much easier. Also, while the café had lovely options, the prices were a bit high and service was slow, even though there seemed to be enough staff. Overall, a beautiful place and a great way to spend the day outdoors. We’ll definitely be back!
