Comfortable,well equipped.
Downstairs has a living/ Kitchen area plus bathroom. Upstairs is a bedroom.
Very good location close to Malahide Castle/ park and a 25 minute walk to town centre and Dart.
Not fond of spiral staircases, although this one had a sensor light that went on as soon as anyone went towArds it so that helped immensely .

Location was superb for a stay that was quiet and peaceful
Walk through the park near the castle in to Malahide village was easy
Near the Dart, excellent cafes etc in the village
The only thing I would have liked to have had was a small bottle or jug of milk to make a drink when we arrived

The lodge is in a decent location in the outskirts of Dublin where it is quiet and peaceful.
Clean
The following are suggestions to the owners, although when attempting to share them with the landlord he was very quick to reject any of them. Therefore, you will have to decide if you want to rent the place.
1. They requested my credit card details for any damages but didn't bother to meet us there and let us know about a few broken things that there were in the lodge. How would I know they were not going to charge us for them at the end. His reaction was very rude when pointed them out when he eventually came by.
2. The pictures are deceiving as it is located a few feet from their house and it feels a bit awkward. You cannot open the blinds as they are driving by sometimes and... What nice pictures you see of a park are close by not your view.
3. The staircase to the bedroom is so narrow and dangerous, they even show you a picture of how you should claim the stairs by holding both sides at the same time. Providing you call them to take your luggage upstairs or a tea. Crazy
4. The heating is controlled by them from their house. Asked to put it up a bit and was ignored.
5. They don't mention anywhere that you should come with your own milk, salt, pepper, oil, vinegar or paper towels before you get there if you feel like having anything that evening. The local shop they advertise is three times more expensive than Lidl which is 10 min away by car.
6. The living room couch is extremely unconfortable and very far from the tiny TV.
7. There is a sign in the bedroom which let you know that you might end up in a hospital if you get up too quickly from the bed in the night. I was very careful and still done it a couple of times.
8. 6 o'clock in the morning you start hearing the loud engines of every airplane which takes off the busy airport of Dublin.
In other words I don't understand how did they get such good reviews. Well...
I apologise if I sound very negative but we felt overwhelmed by these negatives. I hope that you won't.

Liked that this was a standalone apartment in grounds of the owners' house so this provided security and also privacy. The apartment is as described.
The only drawback with this property is that the bedroom is upstairs in the apartment with a spiral staircase. No toilet upstairs.
Therefore this apartment is not suitable for people who have any mobility issues.

Fantastic location. I loved it here. It is exactly what it says. Far enough from the owners house to give you privacy. All that you could possibly need was provided. So clean. It was perfect.

The property location was near the airport, which was perfect for our late check in. The cottage was very clean, comfortable and sweetly decorated. We were so happy to crawl into a bed that had a bottom AND top sheet! 🙂
Nothing, it was lovely!
