Rental unit in Dublin

A peaceful sanctuary in a beautiful Victorian square hidden just out of earshot of Dublin’s buzzy Dun Laoghaire. With two piers stretching out into the bay & the stunning neighbouring areas of Dalkey & Monkstown, you might not want nor need to go further afield. Stay local for great coffee, restaurants, pubs, sea-swimming, saunas, coastal walks & more. And for when you want to venture into the city centre, it is very easily accessed by public transport (14min walk to Dun Laoghaire Dart station). The space The garden flat is situated along a leafy Victorian terrace in a really beautiful and very friendly square. It is a two-bedroom flat - a king-sized bedroom (bed 6'10 x 5'6) with en suite and a smaller single room which can also double up as a work-space. Out the back, the flat has its own terrace that gets lovely afternoon sunshine. For the morning, the front garden is bathed in light. The flat itself has a fully equipped kitchen and a cosy corner in which to sit, drink coffee and have lazy weekend mornings. The sitting room has big sofas in which to get comfy, sit in front of the fire and read/watch/drink wine etc. The master bedroom is unbelievably peaceful. In the morning, you can hear the birds chirping but almost nothing else. The master bed is fitted with a White Company topper which means you sink right into it and have the best night's sleep. The only thing to be aware of is that the wifi, whilst strong in the main part of the flat & single room, has a weak signal in the bedroom - these Victorian walls are thick! Hopefully this can work to your advantage and will contribute to a proper switch-off! There's no better way to start the day than a swim and sauna down at the 40ft followed by coffee in Glasthule. For the best food, Caviston's deli is a 15min walk away and if you're in the market for culture, the Pavillion theatre is a stone's throw, Walter's pub hosts live music and the area hosts regular festivals throughout the year. Dun Laoghaire library is a wonderful place to sit, read and take in sea views or jump on one of the summer boat tours in and around the harbour to get the very best out of the Irish sea! Guest access You will have your own entrance to the flat. I am often away but will communicate instructions to you for check-in before-hand. My mum lives upstairs and so if I am not on hand, she will be! The flat's garden out the back extends to the little steps that lead up to my mum's garden. In the front, there is a bench on which to have your morning coffee or whatever you like - equally, if it's nice out, feel free to sit on the front lawn. The bin area is communal to both the flat and the above house so you may very well see my mum pottering around that and/or doing front garden maintenance.
