If you're planning a hike, stroll or cycle followed by a coffee this weekend, Bunlacken Brú at the foot of Cullahill Mountain in Laois is the perfect shout.

These guys just opened up last weekend and couldn't be in a more ideal location for anyone looking to soak up a bit of nature while enjoying a flattie. https://www.instagram.com/p/CRb1GtErhBg/ There's a gorgeous marked loop walk in Cullahill with plenty of historic gems to discover and incredible views - it takes you along forests trails, rural roadways and through ancient ruins - and finishing it off with a coffee and a treat is a weekend activity we can get on board with. https://www.instagram.com/p/CRPXY-JLA-l/ Pouring organic McCabe's coffee and serving freshly baked treats from Emma's Baking, Bunlacken Brú are clearly prioritising organic, locally sourced produce which we love to see. They're open from 9:30-5:30 each day, and we can't wait to pay them a visit. https://www.instagram.com/p/CRWBdo2LGmG/ Header image via Instagram/Bunlacken Brú  READ NEXT: The basic B's guide to Love Island episode 22
