Hi all,
I am considering moving to Nenagh to take up a new job. I was wondering if anyone has any information on the town. Whats it like, good pubs, places to eat go out, Sports clubs etc. Most importantly any ideas on where to rent a place and how much as i can find very little information on internet.
thanks
From close to Nenagh and have rented in Nenagh so I know what I'm talking about.
Main bogey estate is St.Joseph's Park,avoid at all cost. Cormack Drive in Gortlandtroe also is in this category.
Great tennis club on Limerick Rd, great rugby club off Thurles Rd, two good soccer teams and a fine GAA team (Eire Og).
Best leisure center is Trinity at the Abbey Court Hotel(I worked there for 3 years). Also recommend Glebe Lane gym for fantastic staff.
To eat out: Restaurant at Abbey Court Hotel. Peppermills on Kenyon St is the main place in town. Most people in Nenagh will recomend this place.Good Indian on Kickam Street.
Chineese? Place on Dublin Rd and the Jade Court. Avoid the place on Kenyon St. It's been shut down twice by the Health & Safety Authority.
I rented in Ormond Keep. Its on O'Rehilly Rd behind Nenagh Library. It was great and very quiet.
Pubs: Rockys, Slatterys, Kenyon, Maximus. You're perfect night out.
Property wise, I have seen 3 bed semidetached go for €190,000. You might not get this anymore but maybe €220000?
Looking through the Breda Deane, I reitarite, avoid Cormack Drive.Annbrook Heights is ok. Working class estate of Nenagh, full of solid, decent people. Ballygraigue is ok, its out by the hospital. Sarsfield St is often called Pound St due to a large Pound there years ago. OK, I guess and in right in the centre.
Bear in mind, Nenagh isn't a big town
Any more questions, pm me.
