Driving Directions

From Belfast

Leaving Belfast take the A1 passing through Newry and on to Dundalk. In Dundalk, take the R179 which brings you to Carrickmacross, then take the Kingscourt road (this road has quite a lot of bends on it so caution is advised). The hotel is approximately 7 miles along this road, just before Kingscourt town. The junction for the avenue to the hotel is situated on the left hand side of the road (on a dangerous bend, so again caution is advised). There are markings for "concealed entrance" and "slow" approaching the entrance.

From Dublin

Take the M1 to Ardee. Then the N2 to Carrickmacross. From Carrickmacross take the R179 towards Kingscourt. The avenue of the Hotel is located 7 miles from Carrickmacross, on the lefthand side.

Accommodation

Cabra Castle

When we were searching for the perfect venue, "onsite accommodation for all of our guests" was high on our priority list.  We'd love for you to stay onsite if you can and we'd highly recommend staying for two nights so that you can fully enjoy a hair of the dog (or three) at our Day 2 drinks and BBQ!

We are holding a block of rooms for our guests at a special rate. To avail of this rate, you can book online by following these instructions:
