    Hi, I'm looking at moving out from Dublin as it's just gone too expensive and thinking of buying a home in Blessington. I'm just wondering what are people's opinions of the town? I'm looking at houses in Rockypool Crescent but I don't really know the down so would love to hear anyone's thoughts. Is it easy to get a GP, creche, school places etc or is there much antisocial behavior and so on. Thanks in advance.

    Blessington has gone expensive. A lot of the new builds are 500k +


    Rockypool is relatively cheaper but you could easily end up doing 330-350 depending


    Rockypool is one of the oldest estates here, so very settled


    Schools etc are fine for us as the kids are already in the system but the town is expanding in terms of population so you might want to Double check that.

    GP locally I believe is a nightmare, we’re up here 16 years though and our GP is outside the town


    We love it here, access to the lakes and the greenway. Russborough close by. Plenty of nice places to eat etc and you’re 20mins from naas, 25 from tallaght and about 40 from town


    the kids love it here. There’s a bit of antisocial creeping in but it’s nothing compared to tallaght or Dublin.
