    Blessington is a bustling market town set above Poulaphouca Reservoir, where the Wicklow Mountains meet the Kildare plains. Its broad main street is lined with cafés, pubs and shops. Just outside town lies Russborough House, a grand Palladian mansion with gardens, art collections, and walking trails, while the lakes themselves are popular for fishing, sailing, and quiet scenic walks.
