Set in the Liffey Valley, an area of outstanding natural beauty, Celbridge is a mere 20Km from our capital city Dublin and is now North Kildare’s largest town.  Yet our
beautiful and historic town, which has played such an important part in Ireland’s history, still retains its village feel with everything centred around the original main street and its connection to the designed landscape of Castletown House, Ireland only true palace.

Celbridge is steeped in history and many of the important people who helped shape Ireland have strong connections to Celbridge; from William “Speaker” Connolly to Arthur Guinness and from Henry Grattan to Dean Jonathan Swift to mention but a few.  However modern day Celbridge has much to offer on top of all its amazing history and heritage.  Celbridge is a thriving town with an array of businesses and a wide range of activities for all ages.  Benefiting from the best of both worlds, Celbridge retains that relaxed and welcoming country feel, yet it is so close and well connected to Dublin that you are never more than 30 minutes away from modern city life.  Its location really does make celbridge an ideal place to live and an even better place to base yourself while on vacation in Ireland.
