Welcome to Claremont House which is a charming Victorian property, located in Glenageary, County Dublin. The B&B; is located in a beautiful private location, just off Adelaide Road, yet it is close to shops.

This Victorian style house was built in 1876 but includes all modern updates, yet the owners have beautifully preserved its original features such as ceiling plasterwork and fireplaces throughout the property. The rooms are beautifully decorated and the whole house enjoys a homely and relaxing atmosphere throughout.

The house gives you easy access to the city centre, making it an ideal base for your stay in Ireland's capital. It's also convenient to Dun Laoghaire ferry port, the bus, train and DART.
