Located just outside the city of Dublin, the suburb of Blackrock provides all the calm and quiet of being outside the city with the convenience of being only a few minutes away from it. The area has been around for some time, going as far back as at least 1488, but despite its proximity to Dublin, it was only developed in the 19th century. The area sits on the waterfront, making it a popular destination to spend an afternoon by the sea. The neighboring area is also home to many Georgian manors and historic homes. Check out the historic little suburb of Blackrock and stay in one of the top Airbnb vacation rentals in Blackrock, Ireland.
