Brittas Neighbourhood Guide
Dublin
About Brittas
Brittas is a small, rural village in south-west County Dublin, within the D24 routing area and close to the Dublin–Wicklow border. It has a quiet countryside character, with scattered homes, farmland and access to the Dublin Mountains, while the larger settlements of Rathcoole, Saggart and Citywest provide many everyday services nearby. Local living is car-dependent, although Dublin Bus services operate in the wider area and the Luas Red Line can be reached at Citywest or Saggart for connections towards Dublin city. Families generally look to nearby villages and suburban centres for primary and secondary schools, with further education and a broader choice of services available around Tallaght and Citywest. Shopping is concentrated in Citywest Shopping Centre, Rathcoole and Tallaght, rather than in Brittas itself, while local social life centres on traditional pubs and community venues in surrounding villages. Outdoor recreation is a major attraction, with the Dublin Mountains, nearby reservoirs and rural lanes offering walking, cycling and country pursuits. Beech Park Golf Club is a notable local amenity, and the area suits residents seeking a peaceful rural setting within commuting distance of west Dublin and the M50.
