Bray is a prosperous seaside town of 30,000 inhabitants situated 20 km. from Dublin city centre. The region in which the town lies is known as The Garden of Ireland, because of it's outstanding natural beauty. It is a mountainous region with vast tracts of unspoilt hills and valleys. The coastline is fringed with sandy beaches and unpolluted waters.

The town itself is has been a tourist centre since the beginning of the last century, and has a reputation for genial hospitality. It boasts a wide range of facilities and attractions - hotels, cinemas, bowling centre, sports centres, an aquarium, golf courses, a promenade etc.

Access to Dublin is easy by public transport, with an excellent bus and train service to the city centre. The train journey to the city is particularly pleasant with panoramic coastal views. The trip takes only 30 mins. and trains run every 15 mins.
