Billy Clarke, Clarke Auctioneers

The place to be is within walking distance of the beach - you can enjoy it all the more. If you can get a place backing on to the beach, you're in heaven.

Barbara McGrath, Ross McParland

Buy as close to the beach as possible. We've sold quite a bit to Dublin people with families and mobile homes in the area.

Anne Lait, Harrington Lait

Buy on the small roads off the main road. Tonlagee is a nice road, back towards the N11 and the roads up behind McDaniel's pub.

Nigel Kelly, Lisney

The Briary is a good development from a social point of view. The design of the houses is attractive as well.

Breda Bermingham, Sherry Fitzgerald-Myles Doyle

There are a lot of nice cottages on the network of minor roads connecting the coast road to the N11. Lots of hilly nooks and crannies. You can be within half a mile of the beach with very different rural views.
