3About Collon
Collon sits in County Louth on the N2 between Dublin and Derry, making it a handy stop about 50 kilometers north of Dublin or 90 minutes from Belfast. The town straddles the River Mattock where farmland meets the coastal plain, with good connections to Drogheda and Navan through the Boyne Valley. You're only 10 kilometers from the ancient monuments at Brú na Bóinne, including Newgrange. The elegant 18th-century stone bridge over the Mattock is the town's standout feature, built when the Foster family developed their planned estate village.
