"Set in a neo-Gothic former convent, this Celtic cultural centre has impressive stained-glass windows by Dublin artist Harry Clarke (1889–1931) depicting 12 scenes from the life of Christ (audio guide available)."

"Recently awarded with a coveted Michelin Guide Bid Gourmand just six months into operation, Land to Sea is run by husband and wife team Chef Julian and Katia Wyatt.
