James's place is perfectly located for an easy and lovely stay: two blocks from Dalkey village with a view of the Bay and Howth in the distance, DART within short walking distance, a parking spot to return to for when you do venture out, and a lovely place to lay your head. We were visiting family and were pretty much booked 24/7 so didn't have a whole lot of opportunity to take advantage of any of the amenities the home had to offer or of James's hospitality.
