Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Leila Sep 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication This cottage was exactly as-pictured and described. A truly unique gem hidden away in the docklands which served as a wonderful home-base during our Dublin adventures. The host was very responsive and courteous and check-in was seamless. As with other comments, the location is unique and can be a bit tricky to find, but the instructions are clear and everyone seemed to find us just fine (I wish we had had more time to explore the docklands area more on foot, it looked so interesting). Once we mastered the bus system, it was an easy travel to downtown either on the new S2 bus or through the park to the other lines in Ringsend village and we felt safe walking to and from bus stops. Billy’s guidance and recommendations were fantastic. The beds were comfortable and the cottage was clean and tidy. ##### Leila Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeff M.

Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rodney Aug 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication The cottage was great and very charming. The location is just not very close to any restaurants or other city activities. It is very easy to get a taxi/uber so that’s a plus. You can also walk to many fantastic areas in Dublin but each walk is 30/40 minutes or more to get to some of the more popular areas (local city bus and train stops are within walking distance). Also, it is right next to the port harbor where they load ships so it can be a little noisy at times. This is still a very good option for staying in Dublin even with these caveats. The decor is excellent and it has all the amenities that travelers need. ##### Rodney Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Milona V.

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. ##### John S. Stayed 6 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brian N.

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! ##### Larry N. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elaine A.

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.) ##### Elaine A.

Dec 1, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 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. ##### Maryann R. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amy B.

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. ##### Amy B. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sue D.

William, the host, was very communicative and helpful before our stay (we needed to add another day, but the cottage was already booked for that day, so William found a nearby hotel with availability for us). Useful things for guests to know: 1) Uber/taxi drivers may have a hard time finding the address. It helps to tell the driver that it's around the corner from Deeke's Diner and facing one side of the dockyards; 2) Ask William to check the inventory of necessities (we had to immediately go out and buy toilet paper); 3) the narrow stairs may present a challenge to anyone with impaired mobility, so be aware of that issue; 4) despite being right next to an active dockyards, it's a quiet location and it was fascinating to watch the freight loading activities; 5) the cottage is in an out-of-the way corner of the city but is only a 6 minute walk to the bus stop. We used the bus to travel into the city regularly; and 6) we highly recommend Khushee, a wonderful Indian restaurant in Sandymount. ##### Sue D.

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! ##### Casey A.
