It’s pawsome! Fantastic free day out for your four-legged friends at Cillín Hill

Hosted by Connolly’s Red Mills, Barkfest – the South East’s Summer Festival for Dogs, takes place on Saturday, July 20 and all four-legged friends are welcome.
Set in the Dog Friendly RED MILLS Store & Café, this is a free event with lots of pawsome activities lined up to keep you and your pooch entertained.
Starting off the frolics will be this year’s Crufts winners, Aces High flyball team, with a Flyball Demo. There’ll be lots of fun in the sun as Aces will have two of their relay teams competing against each other on the day, as well as opportunities for visiting dogs to join in the action.
