Vlog | The Japanese gardens, Irish national stud and Kildare Village

This weekend I visited The Japanese garden's at the Irish national Stud in Kildare, I also explored St Fiachra's gardens too. I then popped into Kilare village to show you the pretty displays they have at the moment. If you are looking for something to do on your day off then this was only 40 mins drive from Dublin. Perfect relaxing day trip.

Hi Catherine the Japanese garden was absolutely beautiful thanks for taking us along

[@simplysilent2980]

Beautiful garden. Great vlog

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks for watching! x

[@kittygirlc4120]

Catherine, your vlogs are so very special! Your baby kitties are always a joy to watch as well. Thank you!

[@Lovelygirliebits]

I've never been to the Japanese gardens! Must have an aul gander this summer!

[@vickieb3463]

Aw, your garden is coming along nicely. I'm a romanticist gardner so, I love all the things you've chosen. Just a suggestion on your existing shed that I did to a building in my yard that didn't have a window. I hung a paned mirror and window box underneath. The reflection makes it look like a window and the birds love it, too!😄 Thanks, as always for taking us along on garden tours. Great inspiration Catherine.

[@DaintyDiaries]

AW that is a great idea about the mirror! Thanks so much for watching Vickie! x

[@donna8212]

Always such beautiful places, thank you for sharing all of your adventures, have a awesome weekend....🌺🌺🌺

[@JennyAmponsah]

Such a lovely vlog Catherine!!! And Kildare Village is just 😍😍😍😍😍 reminds me of Bicester Village!

[@annroberts3635]

Oh what a magical and beautiful garden. It reminds me of Louis Ginter gardens in Richmond, Virginia. There is a section in the gardens that is Japanese inspired. There is a tea house in the garden where you can have a very formal lunch. I use to spend a lot of time in that garden when we live in Richmond. We built our house in 1991 and moved to Prince George. I miss going to the gardens. Thank you for sharing this magical place. Ann from Va. USA 🇺🇸

[@susan5301]

Blondie is the star of the show! Your garden looks so lovely! Beautiful gardens and horses! Thanks for sharing!

[@karenroberton3290]

Love Blondie talking. Great looking, love cottage gardens. There is something about Japanese gardens structured but not.

[@ExLibris-Alys]

Lovely vlog. The Japanese gardens were gorgeous and so is your own little cottage garden border with the fox gloves 😊

[@karenwilliams5468]

Thanks for watching Karen x

[@glendastarkey2805]

Really. Enjoyed the Japanese gardens..good job filming 🌸

[@ginasobota5088]

Loved this vlog! The photography was brilliant. Your suggestions for filming above and then below to capture a different perspective of the plants you were photographing was an excellent idea. It certainly brought out the beauty of each plant. Very nice.

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks Gina xxx

[@Mimiplansandknits]

Gorgeous! Thanks so much for sharing!

[@patriciabennett1819]

HiCatherine, so nice to see your garden. It is so pretty and I am like you as I love cottage garden. I adore roses especially David Austen one’s!!! The Japanese gardens as they have a calm zen vibe.I think water to creates a soothing aspect to.I love to hear birds singing while relaxing.Oh the horse is so lovely.So cute fairies in charge of lakes and rivers!!!The last place on your visit has the wow factor , maybe you could get a few ideas. You are inspirational and your travels are super. Thank you for video and blessings and greetings and hugs from the north east of England.xoxo

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks for always being a sweetheart and commenting patricia x

[@karenroberton3290]

Live seeing the country side on your rambles

[@oceanbrzzz]

Thank you for the tour! You are a fabulous guide. :-)

[@thelittlefairylady9757]

Hello Catherine! Yet again, a fine video, of gardens & ponds! Thankyou dearest 😘 I love your videos xxx Willow-sage

[@dinahsoar6982]

What a shame Cath Kidston was not open. All the gardens were lovely and relaxing. When you were on the stones in the water, with your pretty shoes and walking and filming at the same time I thought 'uh oh"....fearing you might miss your footing. You are fearless. Your garden is coming along nicely; I love a cottage garden. Manicured gardens are gorgeous but a cottage garden is so cozy and charming.

[@allyson1691]

Great video and lovely to ramble with you

[@tadar1978ify]

Gardens are just gorgeous...went last year with work when prince Charlie visited. Love the vlog xx

[@asoto7122]

So lovely everything. Thanks for the trips.

[@merchelevas2476]

What a beautiful gardens!!! So in love of them!!! 😍😍😍

[@patriciagoodwin378]

Its been years since I was at the Japanese gardens, looks as beautiful as I remembered your garden looks lovely, if you scrunch up some egg shells and put them around your hostas it will keep the snails off, also good for the soil,

[@stirtheimagination88]

When I was in Ireland in April I loved Kildare. I visited Brigid's Well. What a moving experience that charming tiny garden was. Not like the ones in this video. Nothing grand or opulent. Just a humble garden with a burbling stream and a thousand socks tied to the trees and shrubs. And now I have a sock hanging there as well! Thank you again for taking me on this lovely garden tour. Slainte.

[@ginaserapio8831]

I love your videos. You look very pretty Catherine! You glow! Thanks for sharing the things you love. I connect with you because I love also the things that interests you. Thank you!

[@KateriBurnett]

I just love your garden videos. I like trying to get screen shots of the beautiful gardens to use as my background on my phone. But mostly I love the flowers. So many beautiful gifts from God. Oh and Blondie made me smile and so did Pepsi

[@DaintyDiaries]

[@oliviamulholland9952]

Botanic Gardens have a Sculpture in Context exhibition every year. Its amazing, think it runs from Sept 2 Oct. Tips for the hostas , I 've planted mine in pots & put copper tape around the rim so slugs don't cross. Also a circle of stone around plant base. Slugs don't like the rough stones on their belly. Crushed egg shells also work. If u boil garlic in water let it cool and spray onto hostas slug don't like the taste!

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks olivia, they are great tips for the Hostas x

[@cherylripley6765]

Hi, please come to visit Mackinac Island, Michigan. No cars allowed. Lots of flower gardens, beautiful homes, and the island is on Lake Michigan.

[@horrisajones8933]

Lovely tfs

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks Horrisa x

[@annyjayableful]

For the hosta loving slugs try finely crushed eggshells. This apparently discourages them from crawling across them because it hurts them. Lovely garden.

[@evelynmcculloch9899]

OMG, there's an old bike behind my shed..I'm going to paint it and plant it up, I'm turning into a garden crazy woman, lol, love your videos ❤💕🌱🌸 xx
