Coolgreany () is a village located in north County Wexford in Ireland, in the shadow of Croghan Mountain, overlooking Tara Hill in the extreme north of County Wexford.

The village is located about 3 km from the N11 Dublin-Wexford road at Inch. Amenities include a Gaelic Athletic Association pitch, handball alley, a grocery store, two pubs (public houses) and national (primary) school. The primary school opened in the early 1980s.
