David was an excellent host, making sure that we had everything we needed. We felt like genuine house guests, with our own living space, full run of the kitchen and also access to the beautiful garden where we ate outside one evening.

He has a beautiful home and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. It's also in a really great location, with restaurants and bars practically on the doorstep, as well as a bus stop into town. We drove to Dublin and off-street parking was also available right in front of the house, which was very handy.

We can also recommend a new restaurant, 15 minutes' walk away - the Little Kitchen on Upper Leeson Street. It's a sister to the Vintage Kitchen up in town and serves fine dining with a "bring your own bottle" policy.
