Meath Country House Self-Catering

Home to the St. Oliver Plunkett Family Church, the central six-acre expanse was restored by generations of designers leading back to Charles Robert Cockerell, an innovator of neo-classical architecture. Today, we can marvel at an array of alluring routes through this planned-landscape. An impressive avenue of yew trees dominate the main walk, surveying an elegant parterre.

Extensive lawns and terraces are encased by a physic and herbaceous border, with a canal and water gardens to be found further on. A medieval motte and walled garden also occupy a place in this diverse canvas. Beyond the gardens are a panorama of hills and an extended walk through an oak and laurel forest to Lough Croabh. The lake makes a remarkable scene with its crannog, and its reflection of the steep forested hills surrounding it.This surrounding country is also home to some of Ireland’s oldest archaeological treasures, and a site of enormous historical and religious significance.

The gardens provide a breathtaking spectacle, steeped in historical intrigue. This expansive Boutique Estate can be booked for a stay in which the guests can enjoy free reign over the entirety of the House and grounds. Here, we endeavour to make your visit to us an educational, relaxing and memorable time. This is a place for the whole family to come and enjoy a day out and about. No matter the age or interests. From small children to grand parents and everyone else in between.

"Entertaining place" We had a great time the fairy adventure was really enjoyable the children had great fun finding the fairies and their houses. A wonderful charming place that we will certainly recommend for anyone with young children.

"Walk with history and fairies" This is a lovely garden for adults and children alike. The adults will enjoy the historical context of St. Oliver Plunkett and the connection that his family have to this garden, while children will enjoy the fairy trail. There is a nice coffee shop with a secure play area for children. We enjoyed our visit and would recommend that you visit if you are in the area.

"Superb" We had an amazing time here. My children are 4 and 5. We went with their grandmother also. The fairytrail was really brilliant. It kept our kids engaged the whole time and it was quite magical. There was a booklet we had to fill in on our way around and it was by far one of the best booklets I have seen for a trail. Really fun and easy to complete. The gardens are also beautiful. A great place to visit for all ages.

Great day out We were here a few years ago but we found everything greatly improved. The fairy trail was amazing. The grandchildren loved it and we adults enjoyed it to. Whoever came up with the booklet to put the answers in is to be congratulated as we all had a great time, we were even supplied with a pen. Was happy to pay the entrance fee and thought it was well worth it. Will definitely return soon.
