So without further ado, here are the 9 best places to go glamping in Meath!

Price per night: From €130 for 2 people

Location: Slane

One of my favourite places to go glamping with a hot tub in Ireland, The Millhouse is a beautiful wedding venue that sits on the banks of the River Boyne.

And it just so happens to have a wide array of glamping options too!

From shepherds huts to safari tents to cabins, there are 17 different units you can book, and each is as great as the last.

If you’re looking for a romantic getaway, the shepherds huts are your best shout, whereas if you’re looking for a break with friends and family, then the safari tents might suit you better.

Many of the accommodation options also come with private use of an outdoor six-person jacuzzi bath.

How dreamy does that sound?!

There’s even the option to book out the whole site for a retreat or hen party!

What guests say: “Amazing night away in the shepherd’s hut. Spotless and great facilities. All the utensils that you need cooking in. The hot tub is shared but is completely private once you have booked your time slot. Already have it on the list to return! Highly recommend and staff and extremely helpful and friendly!”

2. Rock Farm Slane

Price per night: From €50 for 2 people, €86 for 4 people, €111 for 6 people, and €136 for 8 people

Location: Slane

Situated on the Slane Castle estate, Rock Farm Slane is a glamping, ecotourism and activity centre, and organic farm.

They offer a wide array of glamping accommodations, including cabins, yurts, shepherds huts, and bell tents.

It’s safe to say there’s something for everyone here!

Each provides a unique experience but they’re all tastefully designed and are surrounded by lots of natural beauty. 

The parkland surrounding the campsite is a designated Natural Heritage Area and Special Area of Conservation, where you’ll spot all kinds of birds, as well as Irish hares leaping across the field.

Just like The Millhouse, the entire glamping site is available for private hire so you can use it for gatherings, parties, and all sorts!

3. Glasson Glamping Farm

For the most unique place to go glamping in Meath, look no further than Glasson Glamping Farm.

Best known for its two double-decker buses that each sleep up to four people, Glasson Glamping Farm is an absolute icon on the Irish glamping scene.

Aside from the two double-deckers, Glasson Glamping is also home to a school bus, a shepherds hut, a pod, and a log house cabin.

Basically, whatever you’re looking for, they probably have it!

On-site, they also have a whole range of other amenities, including a kitchen, shower and bathroom, a games shed, and a second outdoor kitchen, so you’ll be left wanting for nothing.

If the photo above doesn’t already have you rushing to book a stay at Loughcrew Glamping then I’m not sure what will.

I mean, just look at how cosy that yurt is!

There are five yurts on-site and each sleeps up to five people.

They contain a king-size bed, a double sofa bed, a single guest bed, a wood-burning stove, and electrical sockets to charge your devices.

And just a stone’s throw from the yurts, you’ll find a communal kitchen and a toilet and shower block.

While the yurts themselves are beautiful, my favourite thing about Loughcrew Glamping is that it’s uniquely located at the Loughcrew Cairns, the highest point in the Boyne Valley.

The views and walks around here are stunning so if it’s a big helping of nature that you’re after, you know where to head!

What guests say: “Had a fabulous weekend, the yurts are gorgeous and so comfortable. The grounds are so well maintained and spotless. The camper kitchen is a great size with everything you need. The cafe on site has lovely coffee and cakes. The views are fantastic around the campsite.”

Cook dinner on the BBQ and cosy up on the outdoor sofa before retreating to your tiny house for a great night’s sleep.

Sounds like heaven to me!

What guests say: “We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. This place is a little gem, we felt right at home upon arrival and were very comfortable here.

Alternatively, if you’d like more home comforts, either of the cabins will provide just that!

With nearly all options, you get free Wi-Fi, and you also have the option of paying extra for a continental breakfast.

Yum!

What guests say: “Boyne Valley really puts the glamorous into camping. Fi and Paddy’s attention to detail is second to none.
