Lorna was a great host! She made us feel welcome. The accommodations were very nice and clean. Even though you are staying in a family home, it was quiet and private. The neighborhood as a whole is quiet, and there is a locked gate separating the house from the road that adds a sense of security.
There is a bus stop very close but the 185 only came once an hour. It’s definitely possible to get to Dublin and the surrounding area by public transport but it’ll take a while.
