Very cool and fun escape room! My friends and I laughed the whole time and genuinely put effort in it. Perfect balance of a medium escape room, not impossible but certainly not easy. The two gals there running the room were absolute gems! Beyond being informative, we had a really good chat with them (I believe sadhbh and rae were their names, but I could be wrong, apologies!). Highly recommend this place!

A fantastic piece of history and the nicest group of people you will ever meet. A must visit if you are in Dublin and have a chance

A place that everyone should go at least once in life!I went on one of those open to the public visitor days and it was super interesting. Just outside they set up a 'small' telescope through where we could see Jupiter and it's four bigger moons which was awesome.The house has many rooms with photo exhibition, older equipment and some history around different things like an astronomical museum. In the conference room they made a presentation talking about different subjects through a massive projector screen and it was also open for questions.At the end we were all taken to have a look at the moon through the giant and older telescope (12 refractor

Really good, even if you're not a science person. Helpful, enthusiastic staff explaining things in an interesting way. Matt was very patient and answered all our (basic) questions.

Visited here on Culture Night and was treated to an extremely interesting and enjoyable talk by one of the staff. An amazing location that I had known nothing about.

Turned up to Dunsink Observatory on Culture Night 2018. The place was packed. There was so much to do and look at it was great. The guy in the observatory was so enthusiastic and informative. Well worth a visit.

Fab night at the public night thanks to Sadhbh and the team. Great talk and then a bit of a history lesson about the telescope.
