[Wanted] Digs/Room near Foxrock

Cailin CoisFarraige

Hi everyone, I've got a 2-week placement in the Lycée Francais d'Irlande in the January. The school is on Foxrock Avenue, so I'm looking for somewhere close by.

I don't have my full licence, not very familiar with that part of Dublin and considering how awful the weather was last January, I wouldn't feel comfortable driving, so it would have to be somewhere within maybe 10 minutes walk? (Again, don't want to be traipsing to school for a half an hour on what are likely to be icy footpaths, maybe snow)

I haven't really had much luck finding a place so I'd really appreciate if anyone that knows the area could send on phone numbers/ websites etc. I'm open to any type of accommodation really -digs, a room in a student house, apartment etc. Thanks in advance!

I have a single room available. 10 minutes walk to school or I will be driving that way on wet mornings. I'm 15 minutes walk to dart and on a good bus route into town. Feel free to phone is interested. 087 <snip>
