Our stay at Monica and Ian’s was the perfect choice for our first time to Ireland. The location in Dun Laoghaire is great - close to the coast and the main town centre, where you can find lots to do before thinking about taking the DART train into Dublin. The cottage itself was lovely. In a quiet area, and just as was expected. There were a few things that could have been improved upon, such as some spiderwebs in higher places. But overall the cottage was just what we needed - the living room and kitchen area is fully stocked with anything you’d need (including a good collection of puzzles and books) and there was a nice welcome basket in the kitchen when Ian checked us in. The bedrooms were clean and comfortable, and everything was very spacious. We would definitely stay with Monica and Ian again.
