ADDITIONAL INFO
The affluent seaside homeland of Brian O'Driscoll, (Cluain Tarbh means "meadow of the bull") is today one of the most desirable places to live in Dublin, north or south.
It's got miles of seafront walks along Clontarf Promenade, spectacular views across Dublin Bay from Howth to Dun Laoghaire; the magnificent St Anne's Park with its spectacular Rose Garden and playing fields, and the Bull Island nature reserve. Clontarf is also home to two fantastic golf courses.
Then there's Dollymount Strand, where you can walk the dog, jog, run, kite surf or just bathe. This is also where generations of city dwellers learned to drive. The strand runs along the east side of Bull Island.
Picturesque Clontarf is a much sought-after area for buyers and tourists alike.
Clontarf's combination of close proximity to the city, mature and large period properties and broad mix of dwellings, with everything from Georgian terraces and Victorian villas to Edwardian red-bricks and 1920s' "arts & crafts"-style bungalows and modern apartment complexes, mean it is the north city's most sought-after and fought over address.
Clontarf is bounded to the west and south by Fairview Park and the suburb of Marino, to the north by Killester, Artane and Coolock and to the northeast by St Anne's Park and Raheny. Its southern boundary lies on one side of the estuary of the river Tolka.
All that bracing sea air can make one peckish and thirsty. Happily, the affluent area is home to an unusually large number of restaurants to fine dine in or public houses in which to slake one's thirst. You can do both in Gilbert & Wrights pub, in Hollybrook Park, also home to the Michelin-Bib-Gourmand Downstairs restaurant.
The Clontarf Road is home to the cosy and buzzy seafood and tapas spot, Hemmingways, Kinara Restaurant, multiple winner of Georgina Campbell's Ethnic Restaurant of the Year gong, and the Bay Restaurant, with its dishes made from seasonal, locally sourced produce.
Vernon Avenue's restaurant quarter includes Moloughneys, with its trademark fish, charcuterie and cheese plates, and the Italian eaterie, Picasso.
Meantime, the Fahrenheit restaurant in Clontarf Castle Hotel was recently awarded an AA Rosette. Fish landed at nearby Howth Harbour and aged Angus beef are specialities. Or, you could nip over to Beshoffs on Vernon Road for fresh ray and chips.
On Clontarf Road, The Yacht pub was voted Carvery of the Year in the Unilever Food solutions top 10 for 2010. Further up is Connollys, known as The Sheds to locals in reference to the sheds used for curing fish in the 17th century. This popular hostelry is home to the Viking Theatre.
Harry Byrne's on Howth Road, once an 18th-century Coaching Inn, has retained its charm, with its red-bricked Victorian exterior and original wooden interior, has retained its charm.Graingers Pebble Beach bar on Conquer Hill Road has live music on most Friday nights.
The area's other best known native is Bram Stoker, author of Dracula, born at 15 Marino Crescent in 1847.
Social/Amenities: As befits the upmarket area it has long become, rugby, cricket, golf, tennis and sailing dominate the sporting scene, even if the local GAA club, with its clubhouse on Seafield Road, does provide Dublin's dashing wing back, Jack McCaffrey. The rugby and cricket clubs share the same premises on Castle Avenue. The rugby club has recently begun construction of a new all-weather pitch.
Golfers are spoiled for choice, with Clontarf GC, on Malahide Road, and St Anne's and Royal Dublin (adopted home of the great Christy O'Connor) both on Bull Island. Clontarf Yacht and Boat club dates back to 1875. Schools: The area's schools include St Paul's College and the famous Mount Temple Comprehensive, alma mater of Bono and the U2 lads. This is one of just a handful of Protestant-style comprehensive schools in Dublin in the UK style, and with an open and inclusive ethos.
HOUSE RULES Use of Microwave, toaster, and kettle but not cooker for health and safety and insurance reasons.
