The True Magic of Ireland
My husband and I, along with our adult children, spent 2 enchanted nights at Rossnaree in early April at the end of our first trip to Ireland. Located in County Meath, only forty-five minutes northwest of Dublin, this historic manor house provides a unique opportunity to step back in time and into the world of a renowned Irish family. At the urging of our lovely host, Aisling Law, some of us visited the nearby Newgrange UNESCO World Heritage Site, a Neolithic passage tomb that predates the Egyptian pyramids. Others of us preferred the more intimate setting of Rossnaree, steeped in the history and artistry of revolutionaries, sculptors, painters, barristers, and soldiers. Every room in this captivating home has been lovingly curated by Aisling to reveal the stories of the Law and Stuart families. Original art works, family portraits and photographs, and antique furnishings make this manor house a warm and welcoming sanctuary. Set in the mesmerizing landscape of the Boyne River, the emerald grounds were just coming into bloom. We enjoyed walking along the river, lounging on the lawn, exploring the walled garden, and watching the antics of the peafowl, ducks, and chickens. We found friendly pubs and comforting, traditional Irish food in nearby establishments, including Boyle’s of Slane and the Conyngham Arms Hotel. We highly recommend booking a stay here. Our visit was too short. There is so much to experience and explore. We will return to Rossnaree.
