SiobhanP - can you email me at [email protected] with more about your experiences at Beechwood? I posted some questions for you but perhaps you didn't see them. Thank you!

(In the thread, I wrote:
We're thinking about using Malahide as our base for our last 2 days in Ireland - one day to see Newgrange, Tara, and things North of Dublin, and one day to take the DART into Dublin for a day of sightseeing. We're not worried about the distance from Dublin, just the accommodations. What do you mean by 'chintzy'? Is it all non-smoking? How's the food/hostess/neighborhood? I can't find any reviews about it on Tripadvisor which concerns me. If you have a suggestion of a better B&B in that area, I'm all ears!!)

www.visitdublin.com and www.bedandbreakfastireland.net should help
also www.goireland.ie is good.
Took the Dart into Dublin myself from Malahide when I was on holidays. Got in in about 15 - 20 minutes. Go on the hop on hop off bus and you will get an overall view of the city. Bus can be got at the buss office in upper O'Connell street..

Just had a look at the web sites mentioned under your previous post about Beechwood. Irelandexpert.com does not have B&Bs for Malahide but does recommend King Stiric in Howth (expensive) http://www.irelandexpert.com/dublin-...uesthouses.htm On her forum Pat Preston said she has not stayed at Beechwood.

Your questions about Beechwood were answered on the irelandyes.com forum. Evidently Michelle Erdvig stayed there & recommends it on her Great Places to Stay in Ireland page http://www.irelandyes.com/lodgings.html

Since SiobhanP lives in Dublin I am wondering if she has stayed there or only looked at the website? Just because a place is not "rated" does not mean it is no good only that it is "undiscovered". Maybe now it will be discovered.

You need to follow up with your other postings on other web sites in order to get accurate info. Maybe you forgot to look at them again?

TTT

Maxpaste see my response on your other post. I have not stayed there I just live in Dublin. Let me know if you have any other questions.
