We would give this rental a 10 star if we could!! We took the 101 bus from the airport, it was a lovely drive and very inexpensive at €11 each, the journey took just under and hour and the scenery was beautiful. We loved our stay at Anne and Mark’s place, it was so peaceful and quiet and just what the doctor ordered to get over our jet lag - Oh and the bed was soooo comfortable and the luxurious linens were to die for - wonderful pillows too!! When we arrived at the rental we took the train from Gormanston (where the rental was) to Balbriggan, the next town, to pick up groceries and wine, thank you having a shopping bag for us to use Anne. We also went to the pub for a drink, but be mindful as the pub did not serve food during the week, only on weekends. Communication was excellent with Anne and John, her son who was there to check us in. The family was all so kind, friendly and attentive but not obtrusive. We didn’t need a car at all for the 3 nights we were there. The beach and the Irish Sea were exactly what the doctor ordered - literally a stones throw from the rental - we felt blessed and walked for hours on the amazing beach!! The rental is well appointed, modern and very beautiful. The TV package was great to watch of an evening, and munching on all the delicious snacks Anne left us - Irish crisps were awesome and so was the chocolate - thank you Anne!! Having milk in the fridge for our tea and coffee was such a nice touch and appreciated!🥰 The shower was fantastic with great pressure and lots of hot water and the soaps and shampoos were really nice. Woody, the beautiful horse on the farm, was lovely and we gave him lots of scratches and pets. The train station is literally a 1 min walk where you can head into Dublin for the day (takes less than an hour). We felt extremely safe at the rental and would not hesitate recommending Anne’s place and we would definitely stay again!! It this rental is available, your are fortunate, book it!! You won’t regret it!! Thank you so much Anne, Mark and John!! All the best, Georgina and Vince 🇨🇦☺️
