Recently voted one of the Best Family Visitor Attractions in Ireland by 2,000 parents in Primary Star magazine, Westport House provides the ultimate family day out.
Go wild with swashbuckling excitement at one of Ireland's best family visitor attractions!
You'll love the pirate themed outdoor attractions including rides, slides and a fleet of giant swan pedalo boats designed especially for families with children under 12.
Brand new addition, launching Easter 2019. Hop on this ride for a delightful time. Listen out you may even hear a 'Ribbit'.
It's similar to traditional golf, but rather than using clubs and balls, you use a flying disc commonly known as a Frisbee™.
As with golf, your challenge is to complete each hole on the course in the fewest number of strokes. Are you up to the challenge?
Little Village for BIG imaginations.
The play village has been designed to appeal to age 2 and upwards.
Under 2's are welcome to play under close parental supervision.
A Pirate Adventure Park favourite, the Pirates Plunge is a splash-tastic log flume water ride that guarantees to entertain.
It has been heard that some children do it 25 times in one day!
Still known to many as the Slippery Dip, this 30 foot semi-covered slide appeals to all ages!
Take the family out on beautiful Westport House lake on our 8 foot high Swan Pedaloe boats. From them you can enjoy views of the House, the Park, Croagh Patrick and Clew Bay. The swans are pedal propelled so its a fun way to get a little work out.
Take a short ride through the grounds and watch out for surprises around every corner. Views of the lake, the House, Croagh Patrick and Clew Bay are stunning. A particular favourite for the very little ones.
Not for the faint of heart, the Pirate Queen will test your head for heights – and your stomach.
Our soft play area provides a great indoor activity for younger kids.
There is a babies area (for those under 2 years) and a climbing frame for children up to 1.2 meters. Serving teas, coffees & refreshments, adults get a well-earned break while the kids explore.
The Pirates Den is available for private hire outside of high season for birthday parties.
Set in the Pirates Haven, Gracy's Bouncy Castle provides ideal fun for the younger members of the family. Children will have a ball!
Set adjacent to Gracy's Bar & Cafe, The Pirates Playground offers a slide, climbing frames and rockers to entertain.
Little Tykes will enjoy being physically active in creating their own rally experience at our indoor race track. Our newest attraction in the Pirate Adventure Park, the Go Karts are a very sturdy and safe four wheel junior vehicle that has been designed for use by smaller children. Providing fun, a little exercise and excitement – and its even rain-proof!
Your visit to the Pirate Adventure Park also include entrance to Westport House itself and while it is primarily of interest to the grown ups, there are some treasures for the little ones to enjoy too! Be sure to allow time to visit the 16th century pirate queen's Dungeon Experience, the strange yet wonderfully funny mirrors, Paint Your Own Pottery workshops and exciting seasonal activities at Halloween and Christmas time. Pick up our Visitor's Guide on arrival to treat the kids to the Discover Trail which is sure to keep their interest in the heritage long enough for you to enjoy it too!
