The Nook is a very unique property in that it is surrounded by beautiful countryside and set on 2.5 acres of gated garden yet only 30 mins from the city centre and 35 mins Dublin airport via the M50.
Local places of interest include the seaside town of Bray, Shankill village, Dalkey village, Dun Laoghaire harbour, Killiney hill, Glendalough National park, Powerscourt Estate & Gardens, and Jonnie Foxs' pub to name but a few. An extensive guidebook with recommendations for all these places is provided upon arrival.

Private internal access includes the living room, kitchen, two large upstairs bedrooms and bathrooms and a garage with private laundry facilities. External access includes the garden space as shown in the photos and private tennis court. We ask that you respect our privacy and garden area surrounding the main house. If you would like to see the rest of the garden, greenhouse or vegetable patch please notify Daniel and he will arrange a tour.
The Dogs: We have two very friendly dogs, Ben a golden retriever and Kenny a ruby king Charles who like to wander the grounds and interact with guests. They are wonderful with children however we ask that particularly young children are supervised in their company. If for whatever reason you are not comfortable with dogs please notify Daniel and he will ensure they are kept away from The Nook.
First-hand recommendations: A helpful guest book full of recommendations regarding local supermarkets, pubs restaurants, and places of interest is provided upon arrival.
