Glenboy is 1km (.6 of a mile) from Oldcastle village (population 1,500) which has been a settlement since the 12th century, when Risteárd de Tiúit who came to Ireland with the Anglo-Norman invasion force in 1170 was given lands in Meath and build a fortification. Today, the village offers a range of historic buildings, shops, pubs & restaurants, social and cultural activities, including sports and traditional music.

Glenboy is a perfect base for fishing, walking, cycling, lake-swimming, golf, horse-riding & exploring the historic/cultural sites in the area.

Property was just as described! It was quaint, quiet and centrally located with all areas of country being accessible by day trips. The house was cozy and comfortable and was very well equipped. The rural, country setting was so peaceful and was a great break from the chaos of our work lives. Views were amazing and the farm animals and wildlife we saw were so enjoyable. The home made bread and wine waiting for us was an unexpected treat! Home owner was kind, helpful and very responsive. We had one small issue in the evening and Patrick was there within minutes to assist. We were very well taken of during our stay. This was our first trip to Ireland and am so glad we chose to stay here. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this property to others!!!!

We loved our stay at Glenboy! Patrick was incredibly responsive and stopped by a couple of hours after we checked in to make sure we had all we need. He provides a great handbook of helpful information and tourist suggestions in the area. Location was beautiful and serene - we were able to see cows in the backyard every night! Beds were very comfortable and there were a few fun toys in the cabinets for our little one.
