Had a great start at Dermot's place. He lives in but bit does not feel like you are living in someone's space, and he is so friendly and easy going. We had a family room for us and our 13 year old son. It was small but very comfy and with a great bathroom. Breakfast is laid out for you to help yourself and you can cook your own eggs and toast etc. Fantastic subterranean garden to relax in. We arrived a bit later than planned due to football traffic in Dublin and while Dermot had arranged parking for us we were confused and didn't find it at first and realised parking is quite difficult in the area - so make sure you clarify this with him first!!! Location is a 20 minute walk to the Guinness factory and another 20 mins to the city centre. Lovely pub nearby - the Old Royal Oak I think . Recommend it, as friendly and cosy x
