This was a great alternative to staying in downtown Dublin before leaving early the next morning to fly back to the states (location wise and price wise!) Beautiful little town with a lot to see and do. The accommodations were perfectly situated near the top of the hill- easy, free parking and we were able to walk down to the harbor for lunch and site seeing AND made time to walk the infamous “Cliff Walk” of Howth. We were lucky enough to be in town during one of the bi-weekly sailboat races and there was even a traditional Irish music festival going on while we were there in which all of the pubs took part in. We were within a block or two of a very nice (and tasty) pub and took part in the festivities! Walking back to our apartment was easy and quiet. It was wonderful to be able to come back to a quiet, clean and comfortable place to rest (with two children) after a big day in Howth.
