Lakeshore Playground

Right on the edge of Lough Atalia, this one’s more about the setting than the equipment — there are swings, and they’re perfectly positioned to take in the water views. Honestly, it’s the kind of spot you bring the kids but end up staying for yourself. The sunsets here are something else, especially in the autumn when the light sits low over the lough. Grand for a quiet hour if you’re in the city and need to decompress a bit.
