Slane
Slane is a village of approximately 1,445 person (2022 Census), renowned for its historic charm and stunning natural beauty. In modern times, set in the beautiful environs of the Boyne Valley, the village is also perhaps best known for cultural activities and concerts held at the iconic Slane Castle. Additional local tourist attractions and leisure amenities include the world renowned Newgrange, Slane Distillery, Hill of Slane and Knowth. This heritage village offers a host of additional retail and service amenities to local residents, including schools, churches, convenience stores, pubs, a hotel and parks, all set against the backdrop of the River Boyne and offers visitors a blend of rich history and vibrant culture.

Slane is also a highly accessible location, commutable to Dublin’s suburbs in less than 40 minutes. Slane sits on the arterial Ashbourne to Derry N2 national route. The M1, M2 and M3 motorways are all within a short distance of the village. Slane is also serviced by various bus routes to Dublin and adjoining towns. Significantly, the amenity of Slane Village is due to improve significantly following the approval of the Slane Bypass by An Coimisiún Pleanála in June 2025. This bypass should reduce congestion in the village, improve safety and upgrade commuting routes.
