Drumree (Irish: Droim an Rí, meaning 'Hill of the King') is a settled area in the civil parish of Knockmark, south County Meath, Ireland, south of Dunsany and approximately 26 kilometres (16 mi) from Dublin city centre. The next nearest settlement was the hamlet at Dunsany Cross Roads.

Lord Dunsany lived at Dunsany Castle to the north for much of his life, and Drumree Railway Station was his local station.
