It is terrific to have guests like Michael. He makes all the work worthwhile. I wish him and his friends the very best and they will get an enhanced welcome if they return.
A nice little oasis in an industrial/residental area. Near a bus stop, so getting into town is not difficult. The shipyard across the street does work all night, but if you are a deep sleeper it isn't an issue.
Cozy and beatifully decorated cottage a short distance from the city center. We appreciated the comfy beds, fireplace, well appointed kitchen, and washer-dryer. Thanks very much, we hope to visit again!

What a wonderful place! It’s in a quiet location but decently accessible to the city. Billy was a wonderful host and our time in Dublin went great! Thank you :)
We had a lovely stay in this house full of character. The location is great for reaching central Dublin but you still feel removed from the hustle and bustle. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen well stocked with all we needed to cook. Billy was a fantastic host and was really helpful when we required a late check out.

We loved our stay. Billy was available for our inquiries. The kitchen is well stocked and the beds are comfy. We were able to get taxis no problem and also walked through the area with no problems. Thanks for sharing your beautiful spot, Billy. Highly recommend.

Enjoyed our stay
Enjoyed our visit. Accommodation was a little smaller than expected, and there was no sofa. Very unique accommodation and we enjoyed our stay.
It was just as described but also had a super awesome book collection! If you stay here, consider walking out to the lighthouse. It took us a bit to figure out the heat since there is an on/off switch to the whole setup, but that is something most people probably would have figured out quicker than we did. It was a beautiful place, and walkable to bus and train which we used instead of driving. The host was very responsive as well. We would love to visit again!
It is a bit of a walk to downtown Dublin but a nice quiet location with a kitchen, living room and two great bedrooms. This stay was a very good choice for us.
This was a fun little property, quick cab ride into city center, or there was a nearby park which was a beautiful walk. I would definitely stay there again.

Dear Rachael
It was good to have Rachael and friends to stay. They seemed to appreciate the cottage and they got the best from it. I t would be a great pleasure to have them again.

My friend and I had a wonderful week at the Dublin Horse Show and Billy’s place was great! The first night we both slept 10 hours - that’s how comfortable the beds are.We walked (or took the bus) to the show @ RDS everyday, walked into Dublin proper (O’Connell St area), and drove to Dalkey to jump in the sea at Forty Foot, and back down later for dinner. We loved the cottage, the location and the history of it all so much. Billy is a perfect host with quick friendly communication, and we’d stay there again in a heartbeat.
We had a wonderful stay in Dublin and loved the history of this cottage. The location was great and we enjoyed walking the neighborhoods with easy access to hiking trails, pubs, shops and beaches. I definitely recommend this stay if you're looking for a quiet place outside the bustle of downtown!

It is truly rewarding when a guest like Heather leaves such a positive response. I am very grateful.

William was a great and accommodating host! The property is charming and is perfect for two travelers. Despite being next to a shipyard, it’s very quiet. Beds were comfortable, place was clean, and we were grateful to have a spot to cook ourselves dinner. We also enjoyed the decor of the home and the large collection of books. Although it was not a problem for us, travelers should note that this property is not in Dublin city center and requires you to commute 30 min via bus into the city. The benefit of it being removed from the city is that it’s not in a busy neighborhood and is very quiet!
