About Drumree

Drumree is a small, rural locality in County Meath, between Batterstown, Dunsany, Dunshaughlin, Summerhill, Tara, Kilcloon and Kiltale. It has a quiet countryside character, with scattered homes, farmland and historic sites rather than a conventional village centre. Day-to-day life is car-dependent, although the area is well placed for road journeys towards Dunshaughlin, Navan, Maynooth and Dublin. Local education is centred on nearby rural primary schools and secondary schools in larger surrounding towns; the Old School House is a notable local education-related landmark. Shopping and services are generally found in Dunshaughlin, Maynooth or Navan, while nearby villages and towns provide pubs, cafés and restaurants for everyday socialising. The surrounding landscape offers attractive walking and cycling through Meath’s farmland, with the Hill of Tara and Dunsany Castle area among the best-known nearby landmarks. Families and outdoor enthusiasts benefit from the area’s spacious setting, while commuters should expect to drive to rail stations, frequent bus routes and larger employment centres.
