About Rossnaree House

Rossnaree (or headland of the Kings) is a privately owned historic country estate in Slane, County Meath, located only 40 minutes from Dublin and less than an hour from Belfast.

Location

Today, Rossnaree House is a magnificent combination of Victorian and Italianate architecture. The front portion of Rossnaree was built by the Osborne family of Dardistown Castle, who owned the property from about 1720. They originally kept hounds on the site of the present house. In 1855 an Osborne built the main building onto the huntsman’s modest dwelling.

With views to the bend in the River Boyne, guests can still see the ruins of a small cottage where monks from the Cistercian Abbey of Mellifont used to operate their salmon traps. It is here that Finn MacCumhail is said to have cooked the legendary Salmon of Knowledge.

Rooms

Guests have a choice of four individually styled double bedrooms, with either en-suite or dedicated bathrooms: The William Morris Room, The Bird Room, The Tiger Room and The River Room. Rooms are €140 - €160 per night B&B.
