Cute, Quiet spot on a Busy Weekend

I stayed in this lovely cottage on St. Paddy's Weekend with three other friends. During such a busy time, this place was tucked away in a quiet neighborhood which was a nice break at times. The host was very communicative and helpful beforehand and during our stay which we appreciated! Overall, if you're looking for a great option on a busy weekend, I would highly recommend it!

Wonderful place

We absolutely loved this place. It's very charming and comfortable. The kitchen was well-equipped. Beds were very comfortable.The location is interesting. It's about a 15-minute pleasant walk to the nearest shops, which wasn't a problem for us. Even though it's across the road from a large active shipping port, noise was never a problem at all. The neighbors were quiet as well. It was a nice haven after busy days exploring the city.The next time we visit Dublin we'll definitely try to stay here. In an ideal world I'd take an extra few weeks to explore Billy's remarkable library.

Beautiful cottage in Dublin

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!

Great place

We loved our time here! The taxi driver had a hard time finding it but william sent me detailed instructions before we arrived so i was able to tell the taxi driver how to get to the property. We loved the location. We loved being right by ringsend park. We walked to and from city center every day, it took about 40 mins but we loved it.

Coast Guard Cottage

The place was authentic, cozy, and warm. Beds were comfortable was a short walk to coffee thru Ringsend park which was beautiful filled with kids playing soccer and hurling! Easy to get around and far enough to get away from the hustle and bustle!! Billy was easy to get intouch with and everything was grand!

Character & Convenience

We came to Dublin for the Marathon in October. We were delighted with Billy’s cottage. It is exactly as described. Billy’s information and instructions are clear and accurate. Checking in was a breeze. The cottage is filled with character and charming details. The beds are so cozy and the fireplace is an especially lovely feature. It was easy to use the bus - especially the S2. We were very happy with the comfort and value of the accommodation.

Great little cottage just outside city center

Billy's cottage was a great place to stay during a five day trip to Dublin. It was as described and worked well for my friend and I. It is a little off the beaten path (cab drivers had trouble finding it), but a 20 minute walk takes you to the Luas, which is handy for getting around. If you like walking, you can walk right to the city center.

Lovely, cosy cottage

Billy’s cottage was a haven. Our luggage took 3 days to arrive but the cottage and the docks were wonderful. It’s quite a walk to the centre of Dublin, we sometimes ubered which made it very easy (NB - eirecode is very important as the cottage isn’t easy to find otherwise). But would love to stay again and heartily recommended.

Great little place!

This house is a bit small but charming and just what we needed. We were concerned about the house being off the beaten path but it is convenient to the bus and a short ride to city center. It was a great place for home base as we explored the city and countryside and a comfortable place to come back to at the end of a long day. Plus, a short walk to the Merry Cobbler, our new favorite pub. We would recommend!

Very unique. Nicely restored. Having dedicated parking a real plus! Close enough to walk to Aviva Stadium (our main reason for being in Dublin) so for that reason the property made sense for our trip. We had some challenges getting check in information however once I called the host we received the details.

Lovely Stay

The Cottage had such an authentic Irish charm about it. We loved the location walked to pubs and food store. Short Uber into the town of Dublin which was such a cool place - so much happening, got to tour some pubs, ate some fish n chips got to see beautiful architecture and hear some authentic Irish bands playing on the streets. I can't wait to go back. Billy was a very responsive host.
