I stayed for one night with my 12 year old son, and will definitely try to come back.
Emer was a fantastic host, very friendly and helpful. She went out of her way to make our stay as enjoyable as possible.
Our room was very clean and comfortable, the bed and bedding were just right, the shower was great. The delicious breakfast of homemade breads, fresh fruit and yogurt was served in her cosy and light living room. Emer's house, with its wall to ceiling windows and wood beam architecture, felt like a cosy nest.
The location, half way up Howth Hill, on a quiet country road, made for a great base from which to explore Dublin and the surrounding area. Dublin airport is only a 20 minute drive away, and the Dart suburban train station 5 minutes down the hill.
