The 21-acre site overlooking idyllic Wicklow beach is up for sale after resort plan rejected
Magheramore Beach near Brittas, Co Wicklow. Having tried and failed to secure planning permission for the development of a boutique holiday resort and surf school on the clifftop lands at Magheramore Beach in Co Wicklow, Paddy McKillen jnr’s Oakmount has instructed online auction specialist BidX1 to offer the property for sale.

The figure represented a massive premium on the €210,000 the property had been guiding on that occasion. Contacted for comment on Oakmount’s decision to sell the lands, a spokeswoman for the company said: “We were very disappointed that Bord Pleanála didn’t approve our plans for our beautifully designed nature sensitive hotel resort. So we are now putting this incredibly beautiful piece of land on the market so another plan can be developed for its future”.
In recent years the popular beach between Blainroe and Brittas Bay has served as the location for the annual “dip in the nip”, which sees a hardy band of swimmers take to the waves to raise funds for cancer research.
