Step beyond the Red Gate and discover Highbank’s Self-Guided Red Gate Orchard Walk, a unique trail through gardens and orchards marked by striking vernacular wrought-iron gates, many originally forged centuries ago in Highbank’s own farmyard and now freshly painted in vibrant red. Each gate features a QR code that allows you to virtually follow Rod Calder-Potts as he shares the rich history of his 5th generation farm, the story of his ancestral 19th-century home, and the organic practices that shape Highbank today. With 12 QR checkpoints to explore, you’ll stroll through rows of apple trees, pause at Lovers’ Gate for panoramic mountain views, wander beneath the canopy of the great oak tree, get a glimpse of Burnchurch Castle, and spot unique gate posts resting on stones from Mitchelstown Castle. Tours are €15 per person with €5 redeemable in the farm shop.
