Moving to wexford

Thedogsmother

Hello,
I'm thinking of moving from the UK to Wexford.
I am thinking of the Kilmore Quay area and would like to know is there anywhere else in Wexford that anyone might suggest?
Thanks

Hook Head area is rather attractive if that's the kind of thing you're after.

Kilmore Quay is nice, if somewhat bleak in the Winter. However, it is jammed in the summer.

What are you looking for?

Why not get a temporary rental and explore a bit before deciding? Wexford is a lovely county with a wide range of possible places to live, it depends on what you are looking for.

Hello again, I have 2 large dogs so I need a fair bit of outside space. I love growing my own and I do keep chickens. I have reared a couple if pigs for the table and Christmas past I reared my own turkey. It would be great if I could find a place that I could rent for a few months , but will I be allowed have my dogs??? I couldn't put the fellas into kennels and I would fear they would feel abandoned .... Anyway they are all I've got and I would miss then to much.
Ideally to buy a place with 3 acres would be fantastic, a walled in garden and not to far from a shop/ pub....

Me again!!!!!!

Can anyone let me know what is the main supermarket in Wexford area?
Is it Tesco? Do you have a Tesco?
Do you have Aldi, Marks and Spencer, Lidl?
Can you get a train to Dublin? If so, dose it take long?
What is the job situation? I know Ireland has been hit badly with the recession.
Is their many period type property' s around for sale?
Can anyone tell me the name of local agents?

Loads of questions I know, But I would love to be back in the Emerald Isle really soon

Thank you

There's dunnes stores, tesco, supervalu, lidl and Aldi in and around town, no marks though. Jobs would really depend on your experience/interest. There's work but also a lot of unemployment.

For houses, check out www.myhome.ie and www.daft.ie they're the central place that all agents list their properties for sale & rent

Google Street View is very handy for looking around an area without even going there.You can take a tour from the comfort of your own home.
