If you’re looking for a winter weekend trip, then head to Waterford for incredible food, festive fun and something for the whole family.
In the run-up to Christmas, there’s nothing better than a festive weekend away , and Waterford is the perfect destination. This year, it was crowned European City of Christmas 2024, joining cities such as Prague, Cologne and Budapest as the best destinations to visit during the Christmas period.One of the best things about Waterford is its walkable size, so once you arrive, there’s no reason to be in and out of the car constantly. Even better – take the train and relax for the whole journey.
The beloved Bianconi restaurant is full of favourites such as Irish Smoked Salmon, Granville Hotel Paté, and lamb from the Comeragh Mountains. Breakfast is a real treat as well, make sure not to miss the local Flahavan’s porridge with Highbank Orchard organic apple syrup, or an indulgent “Granville Twist” such as an Irish whiskey, Bailey’s Irish Cream or Waterford’s own Muldoon Whiskey Liqueur. Or for another local speciality, the Blaa Eggs Benedict is ideal for savoury lovers.
And if you need a break from all the hustle and bustle, round off your weekend with a walk on one of the many nearby beaches. Winter is a great time to take in the beauty of the Copper Coast without the summer crowds, just make sure to wrap up!: By clicking subscribe, you agree to receiving future communications from IMAGE and are happy for your data to be shared with IMAGE.
