Situated just an hour from both Dublin and Belfast, Hackballscross offers the perfect retreat for those looking to escape city life without straying too far.

Whether youโre after scenic drives, local markets, or the warm welcome of small-town Ireland, this is the place to be.
The origins of Hackballscross's unusual name have long been the subject of wild stories and local folklore, but the true appeal of this village lies in its quiet charm and pastoral beauty. Visitors can enjoy a tranquil farm stay, complete with fresh country air, peaceful surroundings, and a glimpse into traditional rural life. While the village itself may seem off the beaten path, its central location makes it an ideal base for exploring both the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland.
