Five of the best gardens from homes for sale on MyHome

With Ireland now in the middle of its longest heatwave since the famous long and hot summer of 1976, people are expected to take to the outdoors this weekend to spend some time in their gardens.

In that year, there were 14 consecutive days of the heatwave threshold of 25C or above at Birr Castle in County Offaly and Ballybrittas in County Laois.

Moore Park in County Cork recorded 25C on Friday, making it the 13th day in a row that the heatwave temperature threshold has been met at the site.

A heatwave in the Republic is when 25C or above is recorded at a weather station for at least five consecutive days and while temperatures are expected to fall below the heatwave threshold across the whole island this weekend, due to cooler northerly winds, it will still be very warm with plenty of sunshine across the country.

With the good weather set to continue into next week, that means it is the perfect time to get out to your garden and soak up the sun. With a World Cup final to look forward to on Sunday, many gardens will host BBQs and gatherings this weekend.

With all that in mind, we have decided to put together a list of five of the best gardens from properties currently for sale on MyHome.
