Me and my parents had a blast of a time! The place is pretty well located.
A minor hint/tip for guests that are staying at Eadaoin's place: When taking bus 16, tell the bus driver that you are going for the bus stop at Rathfarnham Castle.
That Castle has 2 stops (the 2nd stop just about 70 meter farther along the road) - take the 2nd stop of Rathfarnhem Castle and you only need to have to walk 1 stop (about 100 meters walk) to arrive at the opening to the park (which is also a great shortcut). This saves you quite a lot of money. (Rathfarnhem Castle seems to be a bit more recognizable for bus drivers hence the cheap price. You have a higher chance to pay merely €2.05 instead of €2.70
Aaaanyways......Eadaoin's place is great for almost everybody. It is especially great for people who wants a quiet rustic area/place. Lots to see around the neighbourhood -- great parks! Just book, you won't regret!
