About Kill
Kill is a small rural village in west County Waterford, in the X42 area, close to the coast and within easy reach of the Comeragh foothills. Its setting is peaceful and strongly community-oriented, with scattered countryside, farmland and attractive coastal scenery around nearby Bunmahon and Stradbally. Day-to-day living is quiet and car-dependent, although Kilmacthomas and Waterford city provide a broader range of shops, services, schools and employment. Local village amenities are centred on community facilities and traditional hospitality, while the wider area offers beaches, walking routes and the Waterford Greenway. Families typically use primary education in nearby villages and towns, with secondary schools and larger healthcare and retail services generally found in Kilmacthomas, Carrick-on-Suir or Waterford. Road access is provided mainly by regional routes linking Kill with Kilmacthomas, Portlaw, Bunmahon and Kilmeaden, while bus services are limited compared with urban areas. The coast, Comeragh landscapes and Greenway make the area appealing for walking, cycling, fishing and outdoor recreation. Kill suits residents looking for a rural base, a close-knit local community and access to Waterford’s wider amenities without living in the city itself.
