Known as Ireland's Heritage Capital, Co. Meath is the perfect base to explore the history and heritage sites of Ireland's Ancient East.
Tankardstown was formed by land confiscated in the 17th Century.
Lands were merged to create demesnes with large houses as the focal point. In 1710, Tankardstown House passed to the Coddington family who lived at Oldbridge House, the battle of the Boyne site.
By mid 18th Century, it was owned by Brabazon Morris. Brabazon Morris mortgaged Tankardstown until it was bought out in 1815 by Francis Blackburne, Lord Chancellor of Ireland.
Tankardstown continued to be a private family residence until the current owners, Brian and Patricia Conroy opened their doors to welcome guests into their beautiful home.
