The thermostat for the heating is located on the lounge wall, to the right of the circular mirror. We kindly ask that you ensure this is turned off before you go to bed in the evenings and when you head out for the day.
If you believe there is an issue with the heating during your stay, simply contact the team in the office and one of our Maintenance team can promptly attend.

Too toasty?! On the rare occasion that the city does see a spectacular summer’s day, we do also have a small number of fans available. Contact the office to request one but, please note, this is subject to availability.

All properties have a hairdryer to hand and we provide one set of towels per guest to save you some room in your suitcase!
As we’re self-serviced accommodation and not a hotel, daily housekeeping is not provided. However, if you are staying with us for more than seven days, someone will attend to turnover the house and restock your linen. This is will be pre-arranged with the team in the office.
A small number of toilet rolls and miniature toiletries are left to get you started on your first night. Only a few minutes walk away, you’ll find Tesco Express on the Dublin which will have everything you need to re-stock.
freshen up
You’ll find plenty of space to chill out in the open-plan living area. Take a seat and grab a book from our stocked library corner - we just ask you return this before checking out so our future guests can make use of these too.
The TV is equipped with a number of streaming apps such as Netflix and BBC iPlayer. Use your own account details to sign into these and we would just gently remind you to sign out before departing!
*If you forget, don’t worry - just contact the team in the office and we’ll have a member of staff head down and log you out.

You will find the washing machine in the kitchen and the iron and ironing board in the hallway storage cupboard. A small number of laundry capsules can be found below the kitchen sink. This is a washer only and not a tumble dryer so you will need to use the air dryer to hang your wet laundry, found also in the hallway storage cupboard.
wash, dry, iron, repeat
You’ll find either hanging space or drawers in all bedrooms for those items you want to keep neat and tidy and the upstairs bedroom on the left has large, built-in wardrobes where you can store away your luggage.

The spacious, private kitchen is always a hit with our guests. Here you’ll have everything you need to whip up a tasty, home-cooked meal or a warm breakfast on a cold winter’s day.
As we’re self-serviced accommodation, we provide utensils, cookware and crockery, but the cupboards and the fridge are left bare for you to stock with what you need. Take a seat at the large dining table and relax over your morning coffee before setting off for a full day of sights or shopping.
Ensure the cooker is switched on at the wall and adjust knobs for temperature and function to use the oven accordingly. The hob is gas-operated, so please do ensure this is turned off when you’re finished cooking up a storm.
Before you leave the house on the morning of your departure, we simply ask that you pop your crockery in the dishwasher and clean any pots and pans you might have used.

Although it can sometimes feel like it, we aren’t a hotel so some of our processes will be different. As daily Housekeeping isn’t a feature of self-serviced accommodation, it may be the case that you start to accumulate more rubbish and recycling than fits in your personal, indoor bins.
If that’s the case, we would kindly ask that you remove this to the larger outdoor bin and recycling bins to prevent any spillages or odours in-house. You’ll find this directly outside the front door.
Replacement bin-bags will be under the sink in the kitchen and we thank you for your kind co-operation.
