You can quite happily spend 2 -3 hours here with the kids. More if you bring a picnic! There is a lovely walk around the castle with fabulous views and a fantastic playground. (lots of little fairy doors and giants chairs etc in the woods)
Top it off with a trip to "Storm in a teacup" ice-cream shop in Skerries for an ice cream, but be prepared to queue !!
