We are a family of six so our lifestyle is pretty hectic! We also have three dogs. We live in a small cul de sac of twenty houses and we are 7.2 km from Dublin city centre. Our neighbour hood is very safe and quiet. We are also within walking distance to a very large shopping centre. I love to cook so there is always a variety of meals . If you like independent living within the comfort of a host family then come stay with us!! PLEASE NOTE THAT PRICE IS FOR COMPLETE PROPERTY PER NIGHT.

Siobhan is a really friendly and funny host but the house was horrible.
Host reply
Very surprised with such a poor rating but I was obviously a very poor judge of character on this occasion and failed to see the insincerity of these guests. You can please some of the people some of the times but you cannot please all of the people all of the time.

Les 22 jours de notre séjour se sont très bien passés ; l'habitation est très agréable et nos hôtes ont été très présents, très prévenants avec nous.
Nous conseillons vivement cet endroit.March 2017
In my openion the house is very far from any school in the city center of Dublin. Moreover, you can not practice English Language in this family because you be a way from them. Expensive fee if you compare it with the other family. Breakfast was not good. I do not recomeded them at all.
Host reply
We are located approximately 8km from city centre and this is noted on my profile. Most Irish families live in the suburbs and travel to city centre by bus or rail. Breakfast that is included is tea,coffee,cereal,chocolate spread or drink, juice & fruit. Unfortunately it is not brought to you on a tray in bed.!!!!!! During this guests stay he shared the accommodation with two brazilian students and one from Costa Rica. Unfortunately they did not converse with him that much. I wonder why? If its a 5 star stay you are looking for book the Hilton.xxxx I never met such an individual like this in my life!!!! Beware.

When I first arrived, I saw that the house was much nicer than I originally thought. The property is very well kept and maintained. The host, Siobhan, wasn't able to meet me at first, but introduced herself when she got back an hour or two later. She is very nice, welcoming, and knowledgeable about the local area, transportation, etc. The dogs are very friendly. As a guest you will stay in a detached addition, off to the left of the main house a bit. The beds are comfy, you can make yourself cereal and coffee or tea in the mornings, and the wifi is reliable. When I decided to extend, there weren't any issues, and was able to add the time fairly easily. Staying here a total of about a month, and it has been a very nice experience. Would definitely recommend.
How do I book?
Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.
When do I pay?

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.
When can I share my contact details?
