It was like taking a journey through the 18th Century. I entered there with my son for something to do. When you enter there is a interactive binoculars that shows you what the Casino Marino was like in the 18th Century. To get in it is not to expensive. The tour guide man was very good historian about the place.... More

Found the place really fascinating. I like optical illusions and this is a case in point. Take some time and go thru the attraction.

Really enjoyed our recent tour. The place is much bigger than it looks from the outside. Its by guided tour which was really informative and interesting. Our tour lasted about an hour and 15 mins and then we spent some time wondering about. We drove to the place and found it easy enough. Its just off the malahide road and... More

Hidden rooms, amazing architecture, it's a folly - but that's good. An excellent guided tour too. You can see Bram Stoker's house from here!!

This house is situated a short distance from Dublin City Centre, approx 25 minute walk from Connolly Station to Clontarf. It is a little tricky to find as it is not very well sign posted. It is open from April to October with a tour available for only €3. The tour lasts over an hour and is fantastic. Looking at... More

Not quite the review I wished to give! The reason is simple though, I really love this incredible and fascinating building and was eagerly waiting to bring some friends that are staying over the holiday weekend to visit it. However when I checked out its opening hours , I was rather surprised and dismayed to find that it is not... More

An interesting to visit on Marino area in Dublin. It was a vacation house, at first glance u will think is a very tiny building, but once u are inside u will be amazed that this tiny place has around 16 rooms, with a lot of details, a great architecture work. It is a place that offers very much to... More

I visted this when I was in School a few years ago!!! It is fascinating and the size is deceiving from the outside because when you are inside it appears bigger. I remember there was one room that had a blue domed ceiling that made it appear like the ceiling went up for miles!! I enjoyed it. Only went that... More

This is off the beaten track and a little difficult to find but it is well worth the effort if you are anyway interested in architecture. It is an optical illusion being much larger on the inside than it appears on the outside. The guides are excellent.

A bit off the beasten path, and fairly small - though a lot bigger inside that you would expect. Very knowledgeable and interesting guide, and the intriguing rich-mans playhouse is lovingly restored.
