The popular Devonshire Day will return to Lismore Castle on Sunday, April 19th, offering visitors a rare opportunity to enjoy a traditional Devonshire Cream Tea inside one of Ireland’s most historic castles.
Guests will be welcomed to the castle’s elegant Pugin Room, where Devonshire Cream Tea will be served under the guidance of the Duke of Devonshire’s butler. The experience also includes a historical talk on Lismore Castle, followed by a guided tour of the castle gardens.
