Planning a stress free getaway from Dublin to Glendalough valley at your own pace? Get Kevin’s busline from Dublin to Laragh (just over an hour) then walk 50 metres from where the bus drops you to stay at this airbnb - it’s honestly better than the hotels in Dublin. Sparkling clean, new furniture, warm wooden floors, new shower, comfy bed. When you wake up: a great range of food is provided in a bar fridge with fruit, milk, cereal - and you won’t be disturbed by anyone. Most visits to this very special Glendalough valley with its 10th century monastic ruins will be done by bus, in one day on a timer, running around at someone else’s pace. If you prefer a real holiday on a peaceful schedule and hikes at your own pace, stay here. 5/5 stars.
