Ballymagarvey Village
Wedding venue
👍👍 This venue is absolutely stunning! The grounds are maintained impeccably. I stayed in one of the guest houses while attending a wedding. It was really lovely, spacious rooms with en-suite, beds were super comfy and there's a kitchen also (but we had no need to use it). The main house is also beautif...

Ratoath Garden Centre
Garden center
👍👍 This, in my opinion, is probably one of the very best garden centres in Ireland. It stocks an impressive range of plants from herbaceous, as alpine / rockery to bedding and hanging baskets. The owner John Lord
(not the pianist / organist from Deep Purple 😂) and his staff are very knowledgeable and...

Massimo's Restaurant
Mediterranean restaurant
👍👍 The best restaurant in the town! We're regulars and almost tried everything in the menu. Pizza is top notch, I cannot find any word to describe the quality of desserts. Absolutely number 1! Thanks for serving such amazing food to people in Ashbourne. In addition, everyone is so friendly and kind.

Seats/benches are along the paths aswell, and a couple of picnic benches. There are a few attractions for kids dotted aroun...

La Bucca Ratoath

😠 Food was dreadful. Not fresh, pizza base was soggy which happens when you reheat frozen bases, crostini was thrown together on this hard round base, as I saw the chef do it, my child makes better at home. Calzone was absolutely disgusting, we couldn't eat it, cut through the pastry and it was a sog...
