Local excursions include Newgrange Stone Age Passage Tomb, Mellifont Abbey, the Hill of Slane, the Battle of the Boyne site, among others.
Straddling the Louth/Meath border, Drogheda is a bustling town with a lively social and cultural scene. Drogheda is also a main stop on the Dublin/Belfast rail line, making travel to either city easily accessible, with the express route to Dublin taking less than 30 minutes.
