🦋🌳 Co-founder Michelle visited Seaforde Gardens & Tropical Butterfly House over the summer on her holidays. Situated in Seaforde, County Down, it's a fantastic place for a family day out.

The gardens are beautiful and were in full bloom, they make for a lovely stroll with lots of hidden paths and trees for kiddies to explore. Seaforde Gardens is also home to Ireland's oldest living maze.

The Tropical Butterfly House was great fun featuring hundreds of free-flying tropical butterflies who were more than happy to land on an arm for a photo! There are also some birds and turtles which you'll discover while making your way round.

A lovely place to head for a family day out 💙
