Review

Ever wanted to pan for gold in the Wild West? Experience sheep herding first hand, or have you ever just wondered how the locals around Ireland have cut the turf of their land for centuries, well at Glengowla I experienced all of that and much more. Not only does Glengowla offer a huge visitor experience, I found this attraction to be great value for money. The site also plays home to a very popular TV show called in Irish, An Klondike, better known on Netflix as Dominion Creek and the site lends itself very well to this type of production. I found all of the staff here to be super friendly and will bend over backwards to make sure all of its visitors leave with smiles on their faces. Even though the sheep herding and turf cutting demonstrations are add ons to your visit, Glengowla is also a working farm and has been for 4 centuries, so whilst here why not go on one of their farm walks which is actually part of the admission price.
