Beautifully renovated cozy home. Bea and David are wonderful hosts. Bea’s lovely home cooked breakfasts kept us full all day. We even got a packed lunch for a day when we were leaving early to go on a tour. Their local knowledge was very helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. 100% recommendation staying at the Artist Residence

Wonderful stay! Bea and David were the most nurturing and accommodating hosts. The room was adorable and immaculately cleaned every day. The breakfast was so fresh and delicious. They went above and beyond to make sure I was cared for and had everything I needed for the trip. Bea even packed me a breakfast to take to the airport since I had an early flight. The garden and view of the bay were also spectacular. Really close to a bus stop as well, so it was very easy to get into town. I am so grateful for my stay here. It was just what I needed!

We booked two nights at the Artist Residence before our departure home after two weeks of travel. The online photos do not capture the beauty and charm of this B&B, nor how warm and welcoming the hosts are. We were able to really unwind in the peaceful garden setting and in our well appointed room. Breakfast each morning was so special and delicious, and kept us fueled until dinner. Thank you, Bea and David for a lovely ending to our first trip to Ireland.

My words cannot properly describe the amazing experience my wife and I had at The Artist Residence (AR). Begonia and David are the wonderful hosts of the AR. They alone, make any stay at AR an event you will remember for a lifetime. Begonia is an incredible artist and her taste in decoration, furniture and gardening make you feel so welcome and comfortable. Her breakfasts are other-worldly. Her afternoon snacks make you want to get back ASAP each day. And David’s hand-pressed coffee is the best we’ve ever tasted across the globe…no exaggeration! Each room is terrific and uniquely different in its own perfect way. We stayed in “Stella’s Room.” With the windows open, the breeze from the sea and quiet made all my stress disappear. The Breakfast Room is probably my favorite room of all time. I could sit in it and relax for hours, just drinking coffee and learning about the truly incredible history of AR, Uncle Hugh, and all Begonia and David accomplished bringing this beautiful cottage back to life. AR is located close to Howth and Malahide, only a few bus stops away. Dublin is an easy train ride away as well. Begonia, David and the AR represent the absolute best of Ireland. When we think of our trip to Ireland, they are the first and best memories we have. We will return to Ireland just to stay at AR and spend wonderful hours visiting with Begonia and David again. Do not miss out on staying at The Artist Residence. - Andy & Kim

My wife and I chose this location to be near Dublin without too much City “noise”. We were so happy with our choice. Our hosts were the perfect balance of attentive & respectful of our privacy. The location was the perfect base to explore so many activities in Dublin, Howth, swords and many attractions in the area. Our room was cozy and very clean with an artists rustic charm. The lounge area and dining room were Irish Country with wonderful options for reading and games if you desired. Breakfast was outstanding!!! Highly recommend this property and especially our Hosts.

We feel so fortunate to have found this remarkable place. Our hostess was beyond helpful and the attention to detail amazing. (I have to mention the lovely linens!) My only regret is that our schedule didn’t allow us enough time to just relax and enjoy. Can’t recommend highly enough. Thank you again to our hostess!
