I know its probaly not Local to you, but its still in Co. Louth….. Stephenstown Pond is in Knockbridge just outside Dundalk. There is a big Duck Pond with a lovely walk around it, kids playground, coffee shop, loads of places for picnic’s and sometimes they run events also. Santa always visits and I’m sure the Easter Bunny does too, the events are usually posted on a noticeboard at the function room beside the coffee shop. They have space for Birthday Parties, etc. also. Its a nice place for an afternoon house, I think its €3 for the Car Park and that goes straight back into the upkeep of the park.
