About this property
Elegant, spacious and bright apt suitable for 6, within walking distance to Zoo
Refurbished to an extremely high standard this beautiful Victorian house has all the classic charm of years gone by but has all the modern comforts of today.
Each apartment has been lovingly restored and where possible the original features have been kept such as the marble fireplace and the high ceilings with coving. This gives a feeling of space and airiness that is hard to find in modern accommodations.
All of our apartments have a fully equipped kitchen with oven, microwave, cooker, fridge, iron, ironing board and hairdryer to make sure that your stay is as comfortable as can be.
Freshly laundered bed clothes and towels are also provided.

There is an excellent bus service right outside the front door so you can reach downtown in 10 minutes or less. Buses run regularly and are reliable. We suggest getting a Leap card to make life easier as most buses require exact change.
We are just a 3 minute walk from the supermarket which also has a pharmacy, bakery and butchers so you will have everything you need.
There are some lovely restaurants just 10 minute walks away and some wonderful pubs that play Irish music nightly.
The famous Guinness Storehouse is close at hand as well as the Jameson Distillery both of which run tours regularly and are worth a visit. Dublin is also renowned for it's famous Temple bar area for entertainment which is a bus ride away.
For art lovers the Irish Museum of Modern Art is 15 minutes away and the National Museum of Ireland is 10 minutes away.
Trinity College, Kilmainham Gaol, Ryan's Victorian Pub, St. Patricks Cathedral, are just some other of the many wonderful attractions that are available.
If you enjoy a stroll in the park then you are perfectly located to visit the beautiful Phoenix Park which has a playground and houses Dublin Zoo. It is well worth a visit and is only an 8 minute walk away. Bike hire is available here also.

THE NEIGHBOURHOOD
This is a residential area and our property is located on a beautifully tree lined which runs right up the the entrance of the Phoenix Park. This park is the largest urban park in Europe and houses Dublin Zoo and the presidential home and offices as well as a children's playground. It is a wonderful park to visit and spans over 1750 acres.
The street also has beautiful Victorian red bricked houses all along it which date back to the 18th century so it really is a taste of old Dublin.

Thank you for your wonderful review.
We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us.
Until the next time take care.
Kind regards
Fiona and Liam
The location was great, close to everything. We used the public transit, walked to restaurants in the area, and found it convenient to everything. The hosts were great with communication and providing information. The place was stocked with plenty of towels and other basics. We basically were only at the apartment at night after site seeing all day, but it was a bit tight for 5 adults.
The property was clean, well-appointed, wonderfully bright, and spacious. Although it was not close to the downtown area of Dublin, the bus service was a 2 min walk and ran regularly which made for convenient transport to the major points of interest. It was also a very short walk to Tesco. Fiona was always quick to respond and was very accommodating.
