We stayed one week at Bernard’s place. Bernard was extrenely welcoming, friendly and helpful. He gave us useful advice, answered our messages within minutes and even came to pick us up in Julianstown when we missed our bus! We slept on one of the ground floor rooms, next to the bathroom. The room was nice and convenient; only, it could happen to hear other guests walking upstairs - if you’re sleeping in one of the first floor rooms keep in mind that this is the case. With four rooms to rent there is inevitably some pressure on the bathroom’s availability and cleanliness; we were lucky, in this sense, that the house was not at full capacity. The location is very quiet and excellently connected by both train and bus - we regularly went to Dublin and Drogheda, even in the weekend and on a bank holiday. Laytown is small and walkable, with all essential services within easy reach; we especially enjoyed our breakfasts at Ariosa, a 2-minute walk from Bernard’s home. In short, if one does not mind the drawbacks of house sharing this is definitely a recommended experience. Thank you Bernard!
