Ashbourne is in County Meath, 22 km northwest of Dublin city centre and the airport. It's a commuter town, with a population in 2022 of 16,000. You'd probably only come to visit Emerald Park; or if you flew into Dublin in the evening it would provide an overnight stop before you drove on northwest.
