Not only was the place beautiful, clean and comfortable, Emer was a magnificent host. I had NO idea that my stay would be so perfect when I booked. I’m not sure the pictures do justice, because this little piece of heaven had wonderful and warm touches that were so peaceful and serene. I was very pleasantly surprised with the wonderful breakfasts she made! Fresh figs right from her tree, and MANY homemade treats! I completely enjoyed getting to know Emer. She’s a beautiful person inside and out, and I felt like I was staying with a friend. I was tired and weary at the end of a long trip and this setting was just what I needed. It’s perfectly located - and I do mean PERFECTLY - to many beautiful hikes/walks, sites and the town itself. Emer is a great resource and knows everything there is to know about Howth. For the reasonable price I paid, my stay went well beyond my expectations. Stay here!! Get to know Howth and Emer!! Just loved it. Oh - and the take away breakfast she packed for the airport was incredible!! What a great start to my long journey home! I appreciated this beautiful home.
