A private day trip with a flexible schedule, covering the Hill of Tara, Trim Castle - the largest Anglo-Norman castle in Ireland - and Bective Abbey. Traveling in a luxury vehicle with a personal driver-guide, this flexible-schedule tour includes breaks for lunch and visits the Hill of Tara, Trim Castle (the largest Anglo-Norman castle in Ireland), and Bective Abbey - a genuinely distinct extra stop.
Bective Abbey is the real stop that sets this tour apart from the other Tara-and-Trim combinations. Founded in 1147 by Murchad Ua Maíl Sheachlainn, King of Meath, it was Ireland's second Cistercian abbey - a daughter house of nearby Mellifont, and the first monastery to be settled with monks sent out from there. By 1228 it was described as a strongly fortified place, and after the dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII in the 1540s, the abbey ruins were converted into a fortified house, giving it the unusual, half-domestic, half-monastic look it still has today.
The flexible-schedule format, with lunch breaks built in for small groups of just one to three, also gives real time at the Hill of Tara - the legendary seat of Ireland's High Kings and home to the Lia Fáil standing stone - and at Trim Castle, built from 1172 by the Anglo-Norman Hugh de Lacy and still Ireland's largest Anglo-Norman fortress.
Together, the three stops trace a genuine arc of County Meath history: pagan and early-Christian kingship at Tara, Anglo-Norman military power at Trim, and monastic life at Bective - with far fewer visitors at the Abbey than at the two better-known sites.
