5 star ratingHistorical tour, Youghal A wonderful morning spent in St. Mary's Collegiate Church this morning with our tour guide Wayne. This is a hidden gem in Youghal, and is well worth a visit. The wonderful architecture and history of the building along with and interactive experience is suitable for all the family. Easy to access and navigate, a lovely way to spend a few hours in the town of Youghal, our Ladies group thoroughly enjoyed it.

5 star ratingWonderful Experience We went in to the Church this morning for a guided tour as a Ladies Group and we had such a lovely experience. The Church is beautiful with so much history. Wayne, our guide was absolutely fantastic, full of knowledge, friendly and so patient with the group. There was no rushing around and we got to soak up the wonderful atmosphere. We will definitely be back and will be recommending the guided tour to all! Thanks so much 🙂

5 star ratingSo much to discover! When I went in, I wasn't really in the mood for the whole touristy thing, but I got talking to the receptionist (Angelica?) and since I didn't want to do the audio tour, she recommended the "treasure hunt" map. It was perfect for me, because it made me look at different features of the church that I might have overlooked, if I had just gone on my own exploration. I will have to come back and do the audio guided tour! Thanks to Angelica for taking the time to chat!

5 star ratingA quiet beauty and serene stillness pervades this beauty. Outstanding visit - just a pity we missed the official guide but the secretary (?) did her best to inform us and answered most of my (rather nerdy detailed) questions adequately. She was in fact most gracious and helpful.
Hope to return soon - but will phone ahead to ensure guide is on hand.

5 star ratingBrilliant Extremely accessible and understandable audio tour that delivers a historic account in a modern way. Staff very helpful and kind. Surrounding gardens are tranquil and well worth the walk around on a nice day. The tour flows well and ties all the different eras and areas of the church together. The brochure you're provided with let's you create your own experience and includes key features from outside the church as well as inside. Lived in the town for years and learned so much. Would highly recommend.
