Clonea-power Neighbourhood Guide
Waterford
About Clonea-power
Clonea-Power is a small rural locality in County Waterford, in the wider Nire Valley and Comeragh foothills area between Kilmacthomas, Portlaw and Carrick-on-Suir. It has a settled countryside character, with scattered homes, farmland and mountain scenery rather than a conventional village centre. Day-to-day life is generally quiet and car-dependent, with larger shopping, healthcare and employment services found in nearby Kilmacthomas, Carrick-on-Suir and Waterford city. Families have access to primary and post-primary schools in surrounding towns, while the area’s rural roads connect residents towards the R676, N25 and the towns along the River Suir corridor. Local social life is centred on nearby village pubs, community activities and sporting clubs, rather than a concentration of restaurants or cafés within Clonea-Power itself. The Comeragh landscape provides strong opportunities for walking, cycling, fishing and other outdoor pursuits, with the Waterford Greenway accessible from Kilmacthomas. The locality is also well placed for exploring Portlaw, Mahon Bridge, Rathgormack and the scenic roads around the Comeragh Mountains.
