Gorse Hill Gardens are situated on the eastern cliffside of Bray Head overlooking the Irish sea. The gardens are therefore quite steep and not suitable for wheelchairs, people with walking disabilities or anybody who is unsteady on their legs. Children must be accompanied and supervised by adults at all times.

There is NO parking on site. It is recommended that you leave your car at the beginning of the Cliff Road and walk down to the gardens. This may take approximately fifteen minutes and is a pleasantly scenic road with the sea and the village of Greystones on your right. In the gardens there is a Living
Willow and Mirror tunnel, an amphitheater and many nooks and crannies with surprising and novel pieces of art in them. For a preview of the gardens and the willow tunnel and directions, please see http://www.gorsehill.net/; click onto Maya Lila for the tunnel.
