“Fantastic !”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 January 2012

Just booked again to go back to slane farm! This place is fantastic, the family who run it are very friendly and helpful. Place is very clean, and has everything you need. The kids love it, they get to feed the hens and jack the donkey! I see on their site they have a new puppy and mr and mrs peacock! My daughter looking forward to meeting them, and the boys can't wait to go back to the milking parlour! 2 weeks and counting.....

“Great hostel for groups”

Lovely hostel, we are always looked after when we go there with groups. The landlady is nice and knows everything about the surrounding area. Will be going back. The only thing I would adjust is the shower controls.

“Pretty budget accommodation close to Slane village”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 September 2011

Stayed for two nights in one of the cottages. It met all our requirements - shower that worked - strong and hot and the farm is close to Meath attractions. The only downside was the double bed was very uncomfortable and the sheets didn't seem to fit it. However the overall layout of the property seemed well thought out and caters for all budgets and needs. Would stay again.

“Very nice place on a working farm”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 August 2011

We stayed one night in a motorhome, and found the place to be superb. They have cottages, hostel and camping available. The camping has 2 showers, 2 toilets and is very nicely mown grass. there is now a new area of gravel for motorhomes, with level spots for about 3 vehicles. the other spots can be leveled with levelling blocks. They have an Organic garden, and when various vegetables are in season, there may be surplus available to buy. There are hens, gease and a donkey to keep you company (fenced away seperately to the campground).
It's very clean, and very friendly.
We found it easily, and it's a handy location to travel from Slane (only about 10 mins). they have a small sitting room with loads of books about the area, so it's good on a wet evening!

Room Tip: We used a motorhome spot, all are fine. Be aware you are camping near animals who can wake up and ge...

“Really handy place to see all the sights”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 July 2011

We stayed here as it was convenient to Slane. We booked one of the small cottages. Ours had a double bed, a single bed and bunks in it. There was also a small kitchen, a living room and a bathroom. There is a laundry room on site, and you can get eggs and vegetables from the vegetable patch and hen house. We were provided with orange juice, milk, eggs, bread, butter and jam on arrival and buns and scones. I'm afraid we didn't get around to eating it all!
There are also dormitories and a camp site to the side of the building. There is a computer in reception with free internet on it, but we never used it. The owners were very friendly and offered us a lift in to town on our first night. Just try and make sure you make a list of all the taxi numbers (provided in the info folder in each cottage) when trying to get back late at night as some wont answer the phone
