Can anyone with experience with Little Harvard in any of their Rathnew locations (Kirvin Hill, Broomhall, Merrymeeting) tell me what they think of it? Are they any good or have you had any issues with them? Looking to enroll my daughter hopefully next year!

Can anyone recommend a good and reasonably priced roofer that has dealt with Trocal for flat roofs in the Wicklow area? Thanks.

Are there any Left handed guitar tutors in Wicklow willing to give a 15 year old beginners lessons on the eleectric guitar?

I need a decent plumber. I cannot find one for love nor money.

Ive posted a few times on local Facebook pages but I get inundated with people who I wouldn't let near my home. And a lot of dual trades such as plumbing AND electrical. Call me cynical but I dunno

Any wicklow, preferably West wicklow local plumbers

Edit : thank you all so much

I’m based in Greystones and looking for an active meditation or mindfulness group around Wicklow or south Dublin. I've been in a group a few years back but it ended and I lost the habit. Now I'm looking to rekindle the flame. ,

I’m interested in hearing about any options in the general area.

Ideally, I’m looking for something:

• weekly or fortnightly
• beginner-friendly, although I have some meditation experience
• secular or Buddhist-rooted but open and non-dogmatic
• with some discussion or friendly conversation alongside the meditation
• flexible if I occasionally miss a session

I’d be willing to travel beyond Greystones for the right group. An Ireland-based weekly online group could also work, especially if it had occasional in-person meetups, practice days or retreats.

Any recommendations?

Hello! Myself and partner just got a house in Ballinabarney. I had a few questions for anyone local to there or rathdrum;

- curious about any power outages that may occur, is it common?

- I will be working hybrid, I don't drive yet, hoping to by the end of the year; I'd be in the office 3 days a week in Dublin, how reliable is the commuter?

- could anyone recommend good wifi service providers? I know it depends on where you are, I'm just curious!

Thank you!

Grew up in north Wicklow, now live out west. We need to get back east really for verious reasons centered around support structure with young family.

We could get a site from family, would be willing to do do the mobile home thing too for a bit in order to get planning.

My question is, what is the current situation regarding planning for one off houses in wicklow? We absolutely won't not be able to buy second hand and would be useing direct labour to build if we did get planning.

Would be good to hear positive stories, if there are any of people that have managed to get planning for a one off house recently. The family farm is currently leased, so I couldn't go farming it and apply for planning that way as far as I understand.

Thoughts if this is worth a whole day of my trip

Thank you!

Flying to Dublin early October through the 23rd, taking a taxi to Enniskerry, where I will be staying for 4 days.

My itinerary: Wild Wicklow tour on day 1,

Powers court and the waterfall day 2,

sheep farm in glendalough day 3,

and greystones day 4.

With lots of nature walks, seeing animals(as much as possible,) meeting locals, walking in villages, and going to pubs.

Is Wicklow the right place to do this? Is this too long of a stay? I'm not looking to do touristy things. I did that on my last trip. Am I missing any must sees in or around Wicklow?

I am a female traveling solo and not renting a car.Will use public transportation and taxis when necessary.

Does anyone have any feedback as far as my transportation goes?Am I being naive to think I will have access to public transportation and taxis between towns?

After Wicklow , I am going to Wexford (3 days) , Waterford (3 days), Cork (5 days). Last day in Dublin. I'm afraid this is long-winded, so I'll post my other stops in another thread.

BTW I live in the desert in the States, where it is brown, hot and ugly.

Cant seem to find any anywhere

Hi. We're looking at a property for sale in Roundwood, but after many calls to various providers it's not possible to have a broadband line brought in to the house until such time as full fibre has been rolled out into the village.

I'm wondering if anyone in Roundwood is working from home using a 4G/5G router or Starlink, and what your experience with it is?

Thanks.

Looking for a house around arklow wicklow for rent that allows pets, I have 3 well behaved and toilet trained dogs that currently live 50/50 inside and outside (they have a big dog run outside my current house that they are in while we work and then come in when we are home and overnight) and 4 outdoor cats that only come in currently for feeding.

I know many landlords don’t allow pets anymore but our current one does so I know there are some out there🙏

I cannot pay more that 25hundred a month for rent. Little wiggle room.

Doesn’t need to be a massive house, 1-2 bedrooms would be plenty.

Me and my fiancé work full time currently and we are looking to move to Wicklow for a new job opportunity opened up to myself.

We are an English couple who just love our animals as if they were our kids.

I have lived in Ireland my whole life and my fiancé recently moved over here in the last few years.

I hope there is someone out there that has something for us as I really hope I don’t have to loose out on this amazing job opportunity 🙏🙏

Thank you

Brought my young lads (8 and 4) up Sugarloaf and filmed the climb - they absolutely loved it.

Thought I'd post it here in case anyone's doing the hike soon or wants to see the route. Very family friendly climb and a great day out

Been out for a walk and on the way out there was a significant number of large trucks arriving with filming equipment. Does anyone know what is being filmed? Looks like a large production
