A fun day out for all the family, come and see how a real farm works enjoy learning about the countryside on our family-run farm.

A visit to Newgrange Farm and Archaeological Park will give a truly marvellous insight into farm life today and in older times.

Open since 1988, it is Ireland’s leading genuine working farm open to the public. The farm surrounds the famous national monument of Newgrange. It is a family owned and run working farm and educational facility, where adults and children can try bottle feeding, holding, feeding, petting and seeing all the farm animals and poultry and so much more.

Set in Ireland’s ancient east in the magical Boyne Valley, Newgrange Farm is one of Ireland’s first open farms. Only 30 minutes from Dublin and with easy access from the motorway.

We invite you to discover all the fun life on the farm has to offer. Bring your curiosity, a sense of adventure and get ready to make memories that will last for years to come.

A great family day out. Perfect for school or group tours.
