    Hi guys i'm going to be working in Carlow for 6 months or so and was wondering the best place to rent an apartment and if i was best off getting one from Daft or a local agent?

    I'll be working at Merck so ideally something handy for getting to work, away from students (no offence), but handy for the odd pint in town or something.

    I don't fancy sharing a house with anyone so prob a 1 bed apartment is what i'm after bout 500 a month seems the going rate i'm guessing?

    Don't want to stay in anything bedsit like either somethin half decent needed.

    I'm considering B&B as well as i'll only be staying there monday, tuesday and thursday most weeks, travelling back to cork the other days. so any good ones with decent rates near Merck?

    thanks

    Nearly all of the apartments in Carlow are in the centre of town, which would be 5 min drive or a 20/25 min walk. I think i remember seeing a one bedroom place on Daft a couple of weeks ago which was on Castle Hill(town centre) and it was €60 per week afaik.

    Most of the apartment blocks will have a lot of students living there, but thats the way Carlow is.

    Don't take anything along the river near the boat club as you run the risk of being flooded out of it if we get heavy rain.

    A lot of the local letting agencies are using Daft to advertise.
