About Us
Rock Farm Slane is an organic farm, ecotourism destination and unique place to stay on the historic Slane Castle Estate. Surrounded by woodland, farmland and the River Boyne, it offers a blend of glamping, eco-lodges, outdoor activities, wellness experiences and celebration spaces in a beautiful natural setting.
Visitors can enjoy everything from paddleboarding, kayaking and walking trails to riverside saunas, natural swimming and farm experiences. Rooted in sustainability and a deep connection to the land, Rock Farm provides opportunities to relax, unwind and discover the countryside while creating memorable experiences with family, friends and colleagues.
Our Story
In 2010, Carina and Alex Conyngham took over Dean’s Farm, known locally as The Rock, from Alex’s late father, Lord Henry Mount Charles. With a vision to create something different, they transformed the farm into an ecotourism destination that combines organic farming, sustainability and hospitality.
Over the years, Rock Farm has grown to include unique accommodation, weddings, outdoor activities, wellness experiences and educational programmes, while remaining true to its roots as a working organic farm. Today, it continues to champion sustainable living, food culture and meaningful connections with nature, welcoming visitors from Ireland and around the world to experience life on the Slane Castle Estate.
