The Lodge at Bodenlodge

Das Ferienhaus ist sehr gut gelegen und sehr sauber. Es besticht durch seine Lage direkt am Schlosspark von Malahide und die Nähe zum Bahnhof nach Dublin. Das Ferienhaus ist zwar sehr klein aber dafür sehr gemütlich. Parken kann man direkt vor dem Haus.

Great location for exploring the castle and gardens and Malahide village The Lodge was clean, comfortable and was well equipped.

Private, peaceful, homely.

Spiral staircase a challenge for reduced mobility person like me.

The location was lovely, on the outskirts of Dublin, within walking distance of Malahide Castle, and with an expansive park and village nearby.

.This was not the fault of the property owner. We were unfamiliar with using GPS coordinates (our navigation system wasn't working properly, anyway) and our international cell coverage hadn't kicked in yet so we drove around the town for 2 hours before a Good Samaritan came to our rescue and called the owner for us. The low sign on the wall with an arrow to Bodenlodge was angled in such a way as to not be visible coming from the castle direction. In the other direction, where we might expect a street sign on a post, there was just a nursing home name. We were just unfamiliar and unprepared.

15 min walk into Malahide, very well equipped dwelling, everything you need in a nice little house. The only minor gripe was that the TV was very glitchy but could stream Netflix to it.

Good location.

There was a very strong smell of mould/damp - this got a little better when the heating was on and the bed also felt damp. The heating only seemed to come on for a short period in the morning and evening but we were able to override this. Sadly, we found the accommodation to be extremely dusty - it felt like it was in dire need of a deep clean and the heating on for longer to warm the place up properly. Also.. we arrived very late after a long flight delay. For the cost, it would be nice perhaps to put some milk in the fridge - even if long life sachets.

Peaceful location
