NEWRATH Stud, standing on just over 100 acres with 60 stables in Co Meath, has arrived on the market and is likely to be of interest to race horse trainers and owners in the surrounding areas.

The fully equipped training yard boasts state of the art facilities, including 11 staff apartments, ranging from one bed to five beds.

Equestrian facilities include two large 30-stable American barns with a sand arena suitable for exercising and as a winter turnout in seperating the two. Close to the yards, there is a five-bay horse walker, a loading bay and hay and machinery shed.

The lands comprise 100.5 acres with the majority of good grazing and stud railed in the main, as well as an all-weather gallop and lunging areas for training.

Most impressive is the amount of staff accommodation, making it a ready-to-go facility. A total of 11 apartments, all cleverly named after racecourses, stand beside the stable area.

Located just outside the village of Slane in Co Meath, Navan and Fairyhouse racecourses are nearby, with Leopardstown, Naas, Punchestown and the Curragh all within easy driving distance, while hunting enthusiasts are all well catered by the Ward Union, Tara, Meath and Fingal hunting packs.
