Among the many inhabitants of the extensive estate are [[badger]]s, squirrels and deer. The Whit weekend is traditionally a busy time of year at Larch Hill as [[Dublin Metropolitan Province|Scouts]] from Dublin and surrounding areas make an almost [[pilgrimage]]-like escape to the national campsite.
