Entry for walkers to the currently closed Luggala estate in Co Wicklow, now owned by an Italian hedge-fund billionaire, will be strictly limited, even after the Covid-19 crisis passes, it has emerged. This week, the estate said access to walkers for National Walking Day, scheduled for Sunday September 27th, will depend on whether filming on the estate is completed in time. What do think about the closure of Luggala Estate? Currently, filming is taking place in Luggala and the estate is closed to the public while being used as a film location. “We understand that many walkers are disappointed that they have not been able to access the estate and we remain committed to allowing access for responsible walkers once filming is complete,” it went on.
