- Follow signs for Castleconnell (R445) - travelling along the old Dublin road for a few miles.
- You will see a few signs on the left for Castleconnell and take the left at Daly's Cross- (opposite Daly's Cross filling station)
- Continue on this road for a few hundred yards and take another left at the sign for Castleconnell.
- After another few hundred yards, take a right in the middle of the village and continue on this road for a short distance until you get to Charco's Pub. It would be advisable to park in this area.
- It is a 15 minute walk down to the course from there. If you are there early you may be able to drive down but there is very limited parking for cars and there are usually traffic stewards controlling access to the course.

Attendance at Regattas requires parents to help on a rota to supervise travel and at the event itself. At least one adult male/female must accompany boys/girls on overnight stays.
Your sons and daughters above first year will travel in the mixture of the school bus and parents' cars. First years travel with parents again on a roster system. First years will not normally be involved in overnight stays.
