Start your morning with a leisurely stroll in the leafy idyll of neighbouring Herbert Park, enjoy the short walk to Trinity College or experience the urban sophistication of Grafton Street perfect for your Dublin weekend shopping breaks.

Walk in the footsteps of Ireland's literary giants - Joyce, Beckett, Wilde and many others; watch actors tread the boards at one of Dublin's world famous theatres; perhaps indulge in some shopping in the chic outlets on Grafton Street and environs or simply enjoy a drink at any one of the city's famous pubs.

Alternatively, you could take the Dart to the city centre, or enjoy a trip along the coastline to Howth or Bray.
