The cottage was perfect -- exceptional location, great space, beautifully furnished, quiet, very clean and fully supplied -- it had everything we needed even traveling lightly and with kids. The full experience was just as good. Monica and Ian were responsive to every question/request, communicated clearly and frequently. Location is really something special -- one house to the water, one block to the train, two blocks to the park, and 5 minutes walk into downtown Dún Laoghaire . Could not have asked for any more. Highly recommend staying.
