Kilcoole

Published by Visit Wicklow on 22 February 2021

Kilcoole

The village of Kilcoole, just south of Greystones, is perhaps the best known of its kind in Ireland – doubling as the fictional village of Glenroe in RTE’s popular soap opera in Kilcoole making it a very well known and special part of Ireland.

The beautiful coastline at Kilcoole is only accessible by foot from a cul-de-sac, which runs to the railway line. The beach of stone and shingle is also a paradise for bird watchers.

This nature reserve runs most of the way to Wicklow Town where it leads to the Broadlough.
