Our Lady’s Children’s Hospital Crumlin Garden
The garden – a composer’s retreat – is owned by a successful classical and film-score composer who is also a keen plants person. Having a particular love for tranquil and peaceful surrounds, the owner relishes the chance to reflect on compositions while undisturbed during summer evenings.
The garden serves as a place of creativity – to be inspired, to relax and to collaborate with invited colleagues within the tranquil garden environment surrounded with lush planting and the gentle sound of water.
