Timeline
11:00
Walk the trails of Terryland Forest Park. Arriving early ensures you have the quietest time to enjoy the 120 acres of native trees before the afternoon crowds arrive.
11:45
Head into the city for a sweet break at Gourmet Tart Co. This café is open from 07:00, making it a reliable stop for a tart and coffee in the early afternoon.
12:15
Stroll to Eyre Square. This central park is the perfect place to people-watch and rest your legs in the heart of the city.
12:45
End the day at Freeneys. This fine traditional pub is often much quieter than its neighbours midweek, offering a calm spot for a Guinness and a look at its collection of Irish artefacts.
Local tip
Freeneys can be easy to miss from the street as it does not look like a typical pub at first glance. Look for the quiet entrance near Eyre Square.
