About Donnycarney

Families are well served by a choice of primary and secondary schools in Donnycarney, Marino, Killester and Beaumont, alongside further education and childcare provision across the wider area. Commuters can use Clontarf Road DART station, including its Park & Ride, as well as frequent Dublin Bus services towards the city centre, Beaumont and coastal suburbs. Local shopping is centred on neighbourhood parades and Belton Park Road, with larger retail facilities available at nearby Clarehall, Fairview and Northside Shopping Centre.
