These self catering holiday cottages in Kildare are situated within 500 acres of beautiful parkland at Moyvalley Hotel with access to its bar, restaurant and Darren Clarke designed golf course. The course is not open to the public but is solely at the disposal of members and visitors to the hotel & self catering cottages (at an extra charge). There are a variety of other excellent courses in the immediate area including the world famous K Club.
Moyvalley is on the boarder of counties Kildare and Meath and there is a strong equine tradition in this part of Ireland which is famous for the wonderful horses it has produced. Enthusiasts can enjoy racing at the famous Punchestown Racecourse, Fairyhouse Racecourse or Navan Racecourse or Bellewstown Raceourse. In Meath, there are the annual races on Laytown Strand which are quite unique in that the beach is cordoned off as the tide goes out with the grandstand formed by steps cut into the sand dunes. Regular Show Jumping Grand Prix are regularly held at Broadmeadows Equestrian Centre, in Ashbourne and also at Kill International Equestrian Centre, Kill. Ireland’s National Stud, located just outside Kildare Town, is open to the public and has an impressive visitor’s centre and ornamental gardens – St. Fiachra’s Garden and the Japanese Gardens.
The impressive heritage site Newgrange, is just over an hour’s drive away and well worth a visit. This Neolithic passage tomb was constructed over 5000 years ago, making it older than Stonehenge! This together with Knowth and Dowth – two nearby smaller sites has been designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.
