My daughter and I stayed here for four nights and absolutely loved it! We were able to walk to all of the places we planned to visit in Dublin, and Des' suggestions regarding day trips were spot on - we particularly enjoyed the Dun Laoghaire to Howth boat trip with Dublin Bay Cruises. The Howth Cliff Walk was great, and it was easy to get back to Dublin on the DART Train. Des is a gracious host, and his place is perfect for a visit to Dublin.
