Hi, I'm Geraldine from Dublin and have lived here all my life. I love the idea of meeting new people, every one has their own story to tell. I live with my partner and our 2 teenage children and 3 grown up dogs. Our house is a detached Victorian jewel that has been the expression of my artistic flair since we moved in over 10 years ago. It is a real home and if the walls could talk, they'd have many a story to tell. Our neighbourhood is so safe and has access to so many interesting things to do in Dublin. We are a 2 minute stroll from a metro stop which takes you into the bustling centre in 20 minutes. I am open to sharing my home to like minded warriors who are also in search of true experiences that will one day become part of a catalogue of cherished memories.

Located in Churchtown, on a quiet road and just a 10 minute stroll to our local amenities which include an array of pubs and great shopping. There are 5 bedrooms in total, 2 bedrooms, a spacious living room and a large kitchen. We have two spare bicycles, which our guests are welcome to borrow during the stay

    Geraldine and her family were nice and kind, I had to stay longer and they made place for me. The house is in a nice and quiet neighborhood and there is a Luas station three minutes walking distance, so you can be at the downtown in 20 minutes.
    Thank you so much guys!
    I truly recommend to stay at Geraldine’s place.

    La maison est très grande et tous les services (cuisine, machine à laver, salle de bains, etc.) sont niquel. L’endroit est vraiment beau et les chambres sont spacieuses et ont pleins de rangements. J’ai beaucoup aimé rester avec Géraldine et sa famille se sont très accueillants et gentils !! Je les remercie du fond du cœur mon voyage a été encore mieux grâce à eux.

    A perfect stay in Geraldine house. A superb house 20 minutes by tram from the city, the rooms are spacious and clean as are all the common areas.
    It s a hidden gem in Dublin.

    Un séjour parfait chez Géraldine. Une superbe maison à 20 minutes en tram du centre de la ville. Les chambres sont spacieuses et propres comme tous les espaces communs.
    C’est une perle rare à Dublin !

    The room in Geraldine's house is beautiful. The view is amazing into the garden with two full size bay windows where you can sit in the sun when it's shining.
    Geraldine is a really good decorator and the colors are perfect in that room. The bathroom is huge and very comfortable.. The house is very clean and there are all the things needed to clean your own room ( even a dyson vacuum !!) The dogies are really adorable with a lot of personality. Bradly and Mots. The cat who is called Oswald , but don't let Her fool you she is a calico which means female well she talks back if you talk to her!!! Geraldine and her partner are very busy. If you have a car there is a parking spot. Unless they are doing their future construction. Colorful family!!
