Westport House given a new lease of life

REAL pirates didn’t have the luxury of fresh pizza when they were attacked by the munchies after a morning spent splashing and screeching. But thankfully wannabe pirates in Mayo don’t have to go plundering and pillaging for their lunch after working up an appetite on the zipwire, log flume or pedalos.

Historic Westport House has been given a new lease of life with a Pirate Adventure Park developed around it — offering archery, laser combat games, zorbing, as well as Pirate Queen Swinging Ship and the Pirate Plunge log flume ride.

And a restaurant on-site with a real pizza oven outside is a bit hit with ravenous families.
