Dublin
This carefully restored Georgian mews dating from 1792 is managed by the Irish Landmark Trust. There are three beautifully appointed double bedrooms that sleep six, a living area and a fully equipped kitchen above a stables – which is still used by the mounted unit of the police. Outside is a garden, one of the few left in the area.
Bookings are for a minimum of two nights and as it's a period home – with thick walls – the wi-fi can be a bit sketchy.
