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!

Warm, cozy stay
Wonderful cottage within walking distance to the park, pubs and restaurants. The bus stop is just a few minutes' walk to catch the bus into Dublin City. The cozy fireplace was perfect for a relaxing nightcap. Highly recommend this place!

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.

Close to centre and comfortable
We really enjoyed our stay here. I like the quiet location, but yet close enough to the city centre that we could walk. We'd walk to the Dockland shop area for breakfast, then continue walking into the city centre for our destinations. We also found it to be a safe location. Maybe all of Dublin is, but even the neighbors reassured us. The house itself was perfect, nice bedrooms, and living space. No couch, and tiny TV, but we didn't come to Dublin for that :) Also, the garden was not in bloom, so the photo shows differently than online. I'd still stay here again, having parking in Dublin so we could take day trips further out was easy.

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.

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.

We had a wonderful time. It's sometimes a little loud at night because of the port. Everything else was as fine as expected.

Charming Townhouse
We stayed here while other family members stayed in a hotel in Temple Bar (central Dublin). They had noise, parties till bars closed. We had a quiet neighborhood, easy on street parking, two comfortable bedrooms in a private, charming townhouse. We would definitely stay here again. We especially loved talking daily walks on Dublin Bay, about a five minute walk away (from roundabout, take South Bank Road to path on right to the beach.)

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!

Quiet neighborhood not too far from Dublin City center
We stayed here for four days while visiting Dublin and would definitely recommend it. When you first get there you might feel isolated but within our first day there we figured out the nearby public transportation and the neighborhood that’s walking distance. Easiest is to walk to the S2 bus stop and that bus will take you to the Sandymount DART station within 5-10 mins or you can schedule a cab. Only thing we didn’t know is the stairs up to the bedrooms are small and steep, not the easiest for my grandparents to go down but we managed. Would stay here again!

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, 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.
