Roisin Dubh Houseboat

The Barge was built in 1999 and was our family home for 10 years in Sallins. It is easy to get to by car, and by train it's only 30 minutes from Dublin city centre. Everything you need is very close, within walking distance. Breakfast cafe, pub, barge trips, fine dining and gastropub restaurants, grocery store, walking trails, and the train station is a four minute walk. Its also a great base for exploring Ireland's Ancient East or day tripping to Dublin. Failte Ireland Approved 2018 - 2022
