    I’ve been offered a job in Maynooth.

    wasn’t actually expecting it

    i need to look up places to rent but only one affordable place in a Maynooth is pretty far out

    can anyone recommend what surrounding areas I should check that would have a bus or train route to Maynooth?

    is there an estate I could call that would have a list of rentals?

    Maynooth is exceptionally expensive to rent in. Most of the surrounding areas are not much cheaper.

    It only has frequent public transport from the Dublin direction - along the bus routes you've got Leixlip, Celbridge, Lucan, Palmerstown. Along the train route you've got Leixlip, Clonsilla, Castleknock, Ashtown.

    Lower frequency buses/trains exist from Kilcock (and points further west along the train and N4), Naas, Sallins, Clane.

    Estate agents will generally list all rentals they have online - there are multiple estate agents in Maynooth - Coonans, Bradys, Feelys, Farrellys and possibly more.

    Kilcock is only about 3 or 4 miles away, easily cycle to Maynooth. Good bus connections (bus Eireann 115 route). The Greenway between the two towns is ideal for a safe cycle to and from work. Try estate agents in Kilcock or Enfield. Reilly estate agents in Kilcock (01) 628 7548 or Leinster Property (01) 628 4261

    or Brady's Estate agents in Maynooth (01) 651 0000.

    probably cheaper to stay to the west of Maynooth

    There's a Facebook group, Maynooth Notice Boards.

    It's generally lost cats and found keys, but sometimes there's rooms/flats/houses for rent. Probably worth joining

    I sent a few of messages through rent.ie to one guy renting a place and had no answer.

    I don’t know if this means he isn’t getting those messages or just isn’t interested in renting to me.

    It is not ideal but it is the nearest place.

    prices go higher in surrounding areas and no point in renting a place that makes the journey to and from work long and awkward

    I will have to stay where I am for a while
