About the Area
The house is in a quiet, peaceful yet central neighbourhood just 3km from the city centre and 20 minutes drive to the airport. Regular buses to the city centre leave from outside the house and with the extension of the new Luas line, Dublin's light rail system, Cabra is up and coming and only 20 minutes away from the heart of the city. it's a really great place to stay with plenty of local amenities close by.

Luke is the best host. I am a Spanish girl living away from home, thanks to my stay in Luke's house I feel very comfortable in Dublin. He helps me as much as possible. He is a very kind and helpful person. I am very grateful to him and to be able to stay in his house. I recommend him 100%. If you stay in his house, it will be the best choice.

I didn't have the opportunity to met Luke personally but he was very helpfull and always responded quickly. The breakfast was good, we had the necessary and the room was ok. Thank you Luke for your hospatility !

Luke and his family are really welcoming, you will quickly feel comfortable at their house. The house is really close to the city center on foot, and there is also a bus just in front of the house that goes to the city center within a few minutes.
It was a real pleasure staying there.May 2019
Hello, sorry my english is very bad so I write in french.
Notre séjour a été formidable ; 10 jours en couple au sein d'une famille très accueillante et très sympathique.
Logement bien situé au calme et relativement proche du centre de Dublin (nous avons tout visité à pied). Une ligne de bus passe devant la maison (ligne 37) et la navette pour l'aéroport peut être prise à Huston station (1 km à pied).
Luke ne parle pas français (Noëlle ma femme a perfectionné son anglais !) mais cela est compensé par son sens du contact et son désir d'aider et de faire découvrir la capitale.
Je recommande cette famille sans aucune hésitation.April 2019
Nos adoramos a estadia em casa de luke. Família linda, super confortável a casa, acolhimento melhor ainda. Recomendo e irei voltar de certeza.
