New Ross experiences on average 160 days of rainfall per year, while some may view this as an inconvenience, the rainy weather gives us the perfect opportunity to explore some of the weatherproof fun New Ross has to offer.
1) The New Ross Playbarn for the Kids
So what if it’s raining? The Playbarn is crucially indoors, boasting heap of fun activities. Think slides, toddler play areas and even food if you fancy changing things up with the family.
2) The Rag
What more could you want on a rainy day ?” Sit back and enjoy a pint in the cosy surroundings of The Rag bar while maybe catching a session or two.
3) Urban Gym
Go for a natural high with an always giggling fun sessions at Urban Gym. There is so much more fun ways to exercise than running on a treadmill an this place is a great way for burning off that excess energy on a rainy day
4) Ros Tapestry
Visit the Ros Tapestry for a look back through history of tales told by thread, bringing such a significant part of Irish heritage to life.
5) Spa day at Solas Croi Spa
Head to the Brandon House and enjoy their uber relaxing Solas Croi Spa, a day of tranquility that might not be an option for every rainy day but certainly could be one to make you look forward to a downpour.
6) Lose yourself in a book
A building full of books to be more precise. Spend hours browsing through the vast collection of books available at the New Ross Library even stay for one of their a changing series of events and exhibitions.
7) Indulge at the cafe nutshell
A crunchy golden toasted sandwich, a steaming cup coffee and the right ambiance to get that to-do list under way. Get out of the drizzle at the always inviting Cafe Nutshell what a great way to pass away a rainy afternoon with good food and friends.

8)…..and if all else fails just have a duvet day. Don’t leave the house, Tayto crisp sambos, chocolate goodies, sound like a plan ? while watching Netflix and ordering a take away from one of the towns many offerings. Perfection!
