Went to mass here on Sunday. Nothing much to that you say!,But it was the chat with the priest after mass that charmed us.. It being International Women's day, we were all invited to light a candle at a shrine of Our choice, to honour a woman who inspired us. Fabulous gesture. "Have you seen our beautiful garden ' says he. And promptly takes us out to a beautiful memory garden.. It has hand painted walls dedicated to the work of Harry Clarke. Stunning. Lovely remembrance wall set in water feature. Real gem.

Sarsfields bar is one of Drogheda's oldest, and most popular bars. Located beside the historical Laurence's gate, and once owned by the original Jameson distillers, it is the heart of all historic bars in town. A hive of activity, and a certainty to find live music. Our function room, aka 'The Living Room' is also open Thursday to Sunday playing all variations of music, from live bands, to intimate DJ sets. To get a feel of Drogheda's history and iconic bar seen, arrive in and ask a member of staff to bring you up-to-date.

A beautiful and unique place to visit for those with a love of art or history.The gallery is sited in the former Drogheda Franciscan Church and part of the Friary; known locally as the ‘High Lane Church’. The Franciscans gifted the property to the people of Drogheda when they ended their 760 year association with the town in 2000. The buildings date from the early 19th century, though elements date back to earlier times.
Interesting paintings and pictures of the Town, Very helpful staff to explain everything, nice cafe adjoining

I always bring my US visitors to St. Peter's Church. It is a beautiful church in the centre of Drogheda. Oliver Plunkett's head (a 17th-century Irish martyr) resides in a shine in the church - worth a visit and a great historical asset.

Listoke Ginotel, Listoke B&B, Listoke Gardens, Listoke Garden Shop and The Gallery Listoke (art gallery), Located among picturesque woodlands just outside of Drogheda, Listoke is the perfect place to spend your day.
Quel surprise!!! We were greeted by Raymond, a superb host! We were shown to our fabulous room with amazing bay windows and superb bathroom with wet room shower and free standing bath. Amazing view overlooking the courtyard where I was able to lie on the chaise longue watching visitors come and go...and was jealous of those attending the amazing gin school!! We met Raymond at breakfast in the tearoom both mornings where we had fabulous coffee & croissants to compliment the continental breakfast. Raymond happily gave us on the history of Listoke which was so interesting. We then were given a tour of the gin school...A...MAZING!! Can't wait to re visit Listoke and experience a full Gin school experience!! Ps had the best relaxing time and went into Drogheda to a restaurant recommended by Raymond...soon good we went twice!! Have raved about this place all day and have already booked a friend in before I left. Raymond WE WILL BE BACK!! Thankyou
