Gate to the Walled Garden and view on the Casita, Garnish Island, or Illnaculin, in Bantry Bay, Glengarriff, Co. Cork, Ireland
Gate to the Walled Garden and view on the Casita, Garnish Island. Garnish Island ( Ilnacullin Garinish or Garnish ) is located in the sheltered harbor of Glengarriff in Bantry Bay, Beara Peninsula, County Cork, Province of Munster, in southwest Ireland. Garnish is world renowned for its gardens which are laid out in beautiful walks and it has some stunning specimen plants which are rare in this climate. The Gardens are the result of the creative partnership of Annan Bryce and Harold Peto, architect and garden designer. The island was bequeathed to the Irish people in 1953, and was subsequently entrusted to the care of the Commissioners of Public Works. The alternative names Ilnacullin, or Illaunacullin ( island of holly ) and Garinish, also have a long history in the locality, and appear in early maps.
