What can I say about Millbank? A friend recommended it and with a birthday late in the year I jumped at the chance to book it. The photographs and description in AirBnB made it look and sound very good but I have to say they don’t do it justice. The house and grounds are tremendous and it is easily the nicest AirBnB I have stayed in anywhere in the world.
It’s position so close to Dublin makes it perfect for a weekend break without having to worry about driving for hours and hours and when you arrive the house is so well equipped that you won’t want to leave.
The full leisure suite is more like a 4 star hotel than a typical house rental, large swimming pool, sauna, steam room and hot tub all in perfect condition.
The house features so many large rooms that even a Hughes group won’t feel cramped and the five bedrooms in the main house are excellent, particularly the master bedroom with its four poster bed!
The overflow three bedroom cottage located 30 seconds walk from the main house is warm and cosy and has its own kitchen and the bedrooms are all good doubles.
The weather while we were there was atrocious and it didn’t stop raining until the morning we left but when it did we had a lovely stroll along the paths through the grounds spotting wildlife and strolling by the river in full flow.
I can’t recommend the property enough and must say that the owners were excellent to communicate with and very friendly. Book it now, don’t have any second thoughts!
