Activity Breaks Kells

Whether in search of adventure, rich cultural insights, heritage, family fun or a blend of all, Kells and it’s surrounds is as rich in its green surroundings as it is in activities. For most people, Kells is associated with the Book of Kells which is controversially housed in Trinity College Dublin. Kells is a busy heritage town rich in history located just 35 minutes from Dublin off the M3 motorway on the N52.

The Headfort serves as the perfect base to discover the rich Boyne Valley district with all its attractions. From Golf fit for a king to the best of family fun, there is so much to do and see within a short radius of the hotel

Discover Boyne Valley Guide 2020

Here's the list of our favourite things to do in the Boyne Valley

1. Soak up history in the heritage town of Kells, from the ancient stone crosses to St Colmcille's House and the Round Tower and the Tower of Loyd - the latter has a playground too

2. Visit Sonairte (The National Ecology Centre) in Laytown and enjoy the Nature Trail & River Walk, or admire the cool educational products in the eclectic Eco Shop.
 
3. Did you know that Trim Castle took more than 30 years to build, back in the 12th century? It's a fascinating place to explore and it also served as the backdrop to the Oscar-winning film, Braveheart.
 
4. Explore the bog at The Causey Farm at Fordstown, Navan. Learn how to Bog Jump, Make a Rope or Milk A Cow. Causey runs brilliant events throughout the year from the Fairy & Elf Fairs to the Summer Family Days and the truly scary Halloween Experience!
 
5. Take a long stroll through the fabulous Mullaghmeen Forest Park, near Oldcastle, with more than 1,000 acres of land and a wide variety of walks available.
 
6. Feed the animals, explore the straw maze and take a tractor and trailer trip - all part of the fun on offer at Newgrange Farm near Slane. Watch out for the Sheep Races!
 
7. Meath has just seven miles of coastline, but there are some great beaches at Bettystown, Laytown and Mornington. Bring a bucket and spade, go paddling in the shallows or play chase in the sand dunes.
 
8. Climb the Hill of Tara and pretend that you are an ancient King or Queen of The Royal County - and the views are spectacular too!
