    Hi I'm not sure if this the right place for this thread, so please feel free to move it if not.

    I was wondering about the cost of renting a two bedroom, two bathroom apartment in Dun Na coiribe and are there any specific letting agents or contacts. Are the properties any good? are they quiet etc.
    My daughter and her friend are 2nd year nuig students and not into the partying etc, preferring to go out in town and keep their place party free. She's looked at Myola park, but they seem to be big 6 bed houses. Are there smaller places with two bathrooms, but not hazel park or Laurel park?

    All feedback would be gratefully received, thanks in advance.:)

    Do not move there. My aunt owns one and it has been vacant a few months as my cousin had to move out. They are so badly maintained by Winters, never checked on and the noise levels are horrendous. My cousin often drove home to stay with her parents in the middle of the night. There are abandoned cars left there and wing-mirrors kicked in regularly. It just does not work having professionals and students living together as they hours clash. I would strongly recommend against it. Find a smaller house in Newcastle etc, no way would I recommend Dún na Coiribe.

    My wife and I live in Dun na coiribe and it's pretty quiet. Some evenings there may be a bit of shouting from people on the way home from the pub, beginning and end of year a few parties going on, but on the whole it's ok.

    if your daughters are not into loud noise / partying then I suggest that they steer well clear of the "student villages" and apartments near the college.

    they should be looking for a small house in a residential area such as corrib park, shantalla, highfield park, claddagh, etc. where they can rent in an area with well established families/renters/owners.

    Thanks, are these areas far from the college? Someone also mentioned the Plaza apartments above Lidl?
