The Stables in Castleknock, Dublin are outstanding. The location, adjacent to Phoenix Park, made it easy to experience the quiet beauty of Dublin, as well as the excitement of the city. The cafe at Farmleigh and the town of Castleknock are each less than a ten minute walk from The Stables. In Castleknock one can find a few quality places to dine out or take away, as well as a grocery and gas station. The accommodations are in a well manicured safe residential community bordering the park. The house itself is quite large and clean. There were no amenities we were without. Sarah is an exceptional host. She and her family are delightful. They welcomed us with open arms and promptly answered all questions. There was an ease of communication, something we found quite valuable as we were traveling to Dublin from another country. Sarah made us feel as if we belonged in Ireland. If we find ourselves back in Dublin, we will plan to stay again at The Stables.
