Le Shack
Central to the campsite you will find Le Shack. This is where our Toilets, Showers and Self Catering Kitchen Facilities can be found. While we call it Le Shack, it’s far from that…
The main part of Le Shack is our kitchen-dining area where we have created quite a homely space for you to prepare food, eat and relax. With a fully equipped kitchen, large fridge, gas hob, wash up area – you will find it to be a home from home – or later in the evening the place to be for the party proper!
Our Showers are gas heated offering lots of hot water for the morning or perhaps after an hours Kayaking on the River Boyne! Our toilets are in keeping with our Eco-tourism approach to the campsite and you may be surprised to find a compost loo or two in the block!

Pine Shepherd’s Hut
Was a fantastic stay. The staff were extremely helpful and kind. The hut itself was very clean for us upon our arrival and everyday there was a fresh create of fire wood left for us to use in our stove. There’s also lovely walks around the campsite that can be done. The market itself on a Thursday is worth going to they offer lovely food to buy there. Was a great stay overall.
Apple Shepherd’s Hut
My fiancé and I stayed in one of the Shepherd’s Huts the week before Christmas. It was so warm and cozy even in the middle of winter! Particularly loved the wood-burning stove. Kitchen facilities on site are excellent and the hot tubs are a wonderful touch.
Pine Shepherd’s Hut
I had such a restorative time in Pine at Rock Farm. The whole experience of quiet and calm with a lovely warm fire to wrap up beside. I had a big plans on catching up on some reading but I just chilled for the evening. Fab facilities and the hot tub is wonderful too. Enjoy!
