About the Sue Ryder Development in Dalkey
The Sue Ryder House in Dalkey is situated in a superb location overlooking Dublin Bay and Dalkey Island, close to all the amenities in the village and a short walk from the village centre with its restaurants cafes and pubs.
When the site was purchased from the Loreto nuns it included Carrig-na-Greine, the former family home of a well known family of jewellers dating from the early 18th century. The house, which has a preservation order, required an enormous amount of work to be carried out on it to turn it into a community centre and apartments for the residents of the Sue Ryder House in Dalkey.
The refurbishment of the house was completed as a Millennium Project for the Sue Ryder Foundation in Ireland.
At the moment there are forty eight units of accommodation in a combination of bungalows and apartments. The Foundation provides 24 hour on-site support, lunch seven days a week, as well as a laundry and cleaning service, all of which is inclusive in the weekly charge.
