Boyne Boats Adventure

Paddle the Route Travelled by Stone Age Farmers with a Legendary Boat Builder Boyne River | Adventure | Nature | Mythology | Battle of the Boyne | Artisan Food | Game of Thrones According to ancient legend, the Boyne River was created by the Celtic queen and goddess Boann who symbolises water, fertility, and inspiration. The legend gives an insight into the serene beauty of this ancient river that has lured visitors ever since Stone Age farmers settled in the Boyne Valley. More than 6,000 years ago, these farmers created the burial tombs of Brú Na Bóinne along the Boyne River bend. Through Boyne Boats, the mythology of the past brings us to the mythology of the present because Ross Kenny (founder of Boyne Boats) is a well-known boat builder who featured in and supplied the boats for the hugely successful Game of Thrones series. In fact, the skilfully hand-crafted, traditional Irish currachs used by Ross in Game of Thrones are used by Ross in the Boyne Boats experience too.

We attended Escape HQ to take part in Groom on the Loose for my sister's Hen and it was a huge success. From the first time I got in contact, David and the team were fantastic and went above and beyond to help with our whole trip, they also created a fun atmosphere with lots of attention to detail. We had an absolute ball and Escape HQ was definitely the highlight of the weekend, it suited all ages. If anybody is thinking of going to Carlingford with a group of friends or a hen/stag I'd definitely recommend paying a trip here. Not only is everything taken care of for you it's excellent value to boot.

This centre is simply superb. Their staff and management is outstanding, and they brought joy and learning to my students. I had brought groups to other camps in Ireland before and was always happy. From the website I had expected much the same. Instead, I found it in a different class. The number of different activities is enormous. In two weeks we could not get everything done. The quality of Skypark (better than Treetop in the Bronx Zoo!), the Laser Combat games, Ziptopia and so many water activities was astonishing. Basically, if we wanted to do ANYTHING, they got it done. Their planning was relaxed and flexible and we were regularly asked what we would prefer. Food was very good and plenty of it. Another big difference was that "evening activities" were just as excellent. And hugely varied. The town itself is gorgeous. Small and intimate, but colourful and full of life. Genuine Irish people. Still. When next I have a group we will certainly be going to Carlingford. Conor Sheedy, Napoli Italy 24 July 2019
