About Kilanerin
Kilanerin is a small rural village in north County Wexford, close to the Wicklow border and within easy reach of Gorey, Coolgreany and Hollyfort. The area has a quiet, countryside character, with scattered homes, farmland and a strong local-community feel rather than an urban village atmosphere. Kilanerin National School serves local primary-age children, while secondary-school options are available in nearby Gorey and Bunclody, depending on family preference and school transport. Daily shopping and a broader choice of cafés, restaurants, healthcare and services are generally found in Gorey, with smaller local provisions available in and around the village. The N11/M11 corridor provides the principal commuting route towards Dublin and south Wexford, while Gorey railway station offers Dublin–Rosslare rail services. Local social life centres on the parish, GAA activity and nearby traditional pubs, with beaches, walking country and the Blackstairs and Wicklow landscapes accessible by car. Kilanerin suits residents seeking a peaceful rural setting while remaining within practical reach of Gorey’s schools, employment, shopping and transport connections.
