We (3 young 60-somethings) are traveling from west coast of Ireland to finish up and fly home from Dublin on our 12 day trip in June/July. We have our accommodations booked including Dublin, except for this one area where we need some suggestions.We are spending one night in Kilkenny then driving to Wicklow Mtns area to tour Glendalough and possibly visit Powerscourt Gardens. The next day we want to visit sights in Boyne Valley area, then turn in our car before heading to Dublin for last 3 nights/2 days of our trip. Would Enniskerry be a good place to spend the night between our day in Wicklow area and day in Boyne? Any suggestions for B&B's? Brook Cottage is in RS book. Will circling around Dublin in the morning be a hassle?

I have done the opposite, seeing the Newgrange and the Boyne River valley one day, then continuing on to Glendalough the next day. You might consider spending the night in Navan, which is just outside Dubiln. I can recommend a wonderful B&B there called Killyon Guesthouse (www.killyonguesthouse.ie).
