Its purpose is to allow sunlight to penetrate the passage and chamber at sunrise around the Winter Solstice. At 8:58am a narrow beam of light penetrates the roof-box and reaches the floor of the chamber, gradually extending to the rear of the passage. As the sun rises higher, the beam widens within the chamber so that the whole room becomes dramatically illuminated. After 17 minutes the sunbeam leaves the chamber and retreats back down the passage.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6174809/7f2ac733-46c5-4a14-bf63-61b2a8525186.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Bru na Boinne Visitor Centre 6 min drive \- 3.4 miles - ![Newgrange showing heritage elements and tranquil scenes as well as a couple](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6075902/db01b15f-7b21-4ff5-aef7-ebd811a167db.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Newgrange 11 min drive \- 5.1 miles - ![Slane Castle featuring heritage architecture](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6089955/9c22113f-7fcc-47b3-bb88-d62a39842e7d.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Slane Castle 12 min drive \- 3.9 miles - Red Mountain Open Farm 6 min drive \- 4.1 miles - Dowth 9 min drive \- 4.7 miles ### Getting around - Balbriggan Station 23 min drive - Dublin Airport (DUB) 44 min drive ### Restaurants - The Spire 10 min drive - Costa Coffee 14 min drive - KFC 10 min drive - Supermac's 15 min drive - O Neills Bar 10 min drive ## Frequently asked questions ### Is Charming cottage on the River Boyne,Fishing ,Kayaking,World Heritage sites pet-friendly? ### Where is Charming cottage on the River Boyne,Fishing ,Kayaking,World Heritage sites located? ## Have a question?

Ducks come visit you in the morning, the tire swing is so much fun, and views of the river and landscape are breathtaking. The owner is friendly and very accommodating. The property is only a handful of minutes away from Newgrange, Funtasia, Emerald Park, and Drogheda. It's so handy to have a full kitchen and washing machine. ##### Melina Z.

We thoroughly enjoyed our few days there. The steps up to the mezzanine bedroom are quite steep and narrow so may not be suitable for anyone with mobility issues but our adult son had no problems ##### Geri W.
