About Wicklow Town
Wicklow Town is the county town of Wicklow, set on Ireland’s east coast about an hour south of Dublin along the Irish Sea. Overlooking Wicklow Harbour and framed by rolling hills, it has a lively yet relaxed feel, blending historic streets with modern housing estates around the A67 area. Daily life centres on the harbour, Main Street and the seafront, with cafés, traditional pubs and independent shops alongside supermarkets and services. Families are well catered for with a choice of primary and secondary schools, including the growing Educate Together Secondary School Wicklow, and sports clubs across rugby, GAA and sailing. Commuters benefit from Wicklow railway station with regular DART and commuter services north to Dublin and south towards Wexford, as well as easy access to the N11/M11. Outdoor amenities are a major draw, from cliff walks at Wicklow Head and Black Castle to nearby beaches at Silver Strand and Brittas Bay. With neighbouring Rathnew and Glenealy just inland, Wicklow Town offers coastal living with strong transport links and a well-established community infrastructure.
