Staff was very hospitable and ready to help at every chance. Even gave us a ride to town to catch the bus. Be sure to visit the Valentine coffee shop in Leixlip and tell Elaine we said Hi! Try her fruit scones.
For food, there are several pubs and restaurants and even 3 grocery stores/markets in town. Very walkable. Nice little enclave community with historic feel. Easy access into Dublin.
