LOCATION
Herbertstown House is located a short distance from the busy town of Dunboyne in County Meath which is approx. 17 km from Dublin City Centre and has become a popular destination for commuters travelling in and out of Dublin for work especially with the option of the M3 Parkway train station approximately 6 km from the property.

Dunboyne has managed to keep its village feel very much intact, despite having a growing population. This is largely due to an excellent preservation of the town centre, focused around a village green, and a crossroads just past it. Around those two locations, the town spreads out but, crucially, has not been overdeveloped, which has maintained the feel that one is in rural Ireland. There is a variety of excellent shops, pubs, cafes, and restaurants in Dunboyne as well as the Four Star Dunboyne Castle Hotel. The wonderful Avoca Café and Store is located just outside Dunboyne and Caffery’s award winning pub and restaurant is just over a 7 minute drive away.
The town of Maynooth is also some 17km from Herbertstown House. With a population of over 12,500 as well as its own third level university. While Blanchardstown Shopping Centre is 15km away via the M3 motorway which is home to a mixture of 180 high end and high street stores, 3 retail parks and 25 restaurants.

There is excellent horse racing nearby in Fairyhouse, with Leopardstown, Naas, Navan, Punchestown and The Curragh within easy driving distance. There is a wide selection of equestrian facilities including the National Sports Arena.
Golf enthusiasts are well catered for in the area with Killeen Castle today forming the focal point of a Golf and Country Club, where the Jack Nicklaus designed championship 18-hole course hosted The Solheim Cup in 2011. Carton House and Royal Tara are also a short distance away and there are another 8 golf courses not too far away.
