About this house rental
RARE JULY 2026 AVAILABILITY! DUE TO A CANCELATION, OUR COTTAGE IS NOW AVAILABLE FROM JULY 16 THRU AUGUST 1, 2026!
Our charming 130-year old 2-bedroomed home, bright, welcoming and beautifully renovated, sits above the village of Howth, overlooking Howth Harbour and Ireland's Eye, the iconic island outside the harbor, just 9 miles from Dublin city center.
Howth is the scenic and recreational jewel of the Dublin area, sitting in a hilly peninsula on the north side of Dublin Bay with stunning views of the bay to the south and the coast line to the north. The harbor, with its two popular piers, includes a working fishing port as well as a large marina, and is an important sailing venue. The peninsula has a wide array of wonderful scenic walking paths over the hills and around the cliffs, and is popular with birdwatchers.
We believe that our house was built in or before 1895, but it has been extended and totally renovated, and includes all modern amenities. It is bright and fresh, with 2 bedrooms that can comfortably sleep 4 people, full bathroom, living room and a bright fully-fitted kitchen / dining room overlooking the garden. Total floor area is approx 1,000 sq ft. The garden includes a deck / patio and offers views of Howth Harbor and Ireland’s Eye. The front of the house has 2 parking spaces.
The house is 300 yards from Howth Village, including shops, church and bus service to the center of Dublin; 0.4 miles from Howth Harbour; 0.7 miles (12 minute walk) from the DART rapid transit rail station serving the center of Dublin and southern areas of the city; and 8.9 miles from Dublin city center.
Howth has 2 fine golf courses, numerous excellent restaurants, and the 15th century Howth Castle which includes its famed wild rhododendron gardens, which are open to the public in summer, and the National Transport Museum of Ireland. As can be expected in a fishing port, many of the restaurants are particularly noted for fine seafood. Howth also has several well-known pubs, including the Abbey Tavern, which is renowned nationally for Irish folk and traditional music, and is only 5 minutes’ walk from our house.
All this within 25 minutes of the center of Dublin!
If you wish to make a reservation, PLEASE tell us a bit about your trip, including who will be traveling with you, and what brings you to Ireland / Howth. Thank you!

Wonderful place to stay near Dublin. Howth is a gorgeous harbour town with lovely walks and restaurants. Dublin is within easy reach on the train, with the station being only 1km away on foot. The cottage is very well appointed and clean with an excellent information manual on appliances and the general area. Communication with Peter and Orla was excellent. We were very comfortable here for a week. (There was no BBQ)

We loved our stay at this Howth cottage. The cottage and the town are lovely. We wish we could have spent more time there, rather than travelling back and forth to Dublin for booked activities. I would recommend exploring the town and the beautiful scenery here as much as you can. Lovely hosts. Thank you for sharing this wonderful cottage with us!

Beautiful cottage, bright and airy with a fabulous layout. Clean with fully equipped kitchen. Easy access to cliff walks, restaurants, Howth harbor and the DART to travel into Dublin City center or other destinations. We had fabulous weather and rented for a week in June, there is a cute garden and outdoor deck off the kitchen, we slept with the windows open a treat for us. Things could not of gone smoother from check in to check out - fabulous experience, great communication with the host
