Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Cork

We originally booked this listing in May of 2020, but sadly were not able to make the trip due to Covid. 5 years later we finally got to stay int he lighthouse and it was well worth the wait! It was truly a magical experience, with breathtaking views and so many special little details in the house to make it feel like home. We spent 10 days in Ireland and this was the highlight of our trip!

This is one of the best stays we have ever experienced. The photos don’t do it justice, the home, grounds & view of the ocean are absolutely breathtaking ! Everything you need is on hand, we were inspired! Fresh flowers & comfy blankets, books, every detail was taken care of. We did not want to leave. Gavin was friendly and gave us great tips & suggestions for exploring this incredible area. We would give 10 stars if we could!!! Book this extraordinary stay.!

great lil spot. I travelled with a todler he had loads of space to run around especially with the back garden. room was child friendly. having a fridge and bit really helped. Sylwia was just a text away if we had any questions. directions to the house before hand were brilliant to help find it. Just 10 minutes from fota wild life park perfect location for exploring.

Amiee’s boathouse was a wonderful place to stay in. One of the best AirBnBs I’ve been in. Everything in the picture is exactly how it is when you get there. Checking in was easy and the drive was beautiful. This place is perfect for couples that want to be in a secluded place but close enough to other towns nearby. Perfect location for hiking and walking. Amiee was an excellent host. She makes you feel like you are right at home. I could tell she was very thoughtful on the boathouse’s presentation. She left us some homemade jam and recommendations for other activities as well. Looking forward to coming back! 😊❤️

Just arrived home and miss it already. The cottage has everything you could need. Lovely extras on arrival so welcome after a journey. Whilst I sat for Jo

This was our second time staying at Brigit’s and this time we made sure the whole family came along with Jim our dog. The most beautiful and magical place that we all enjoyed so much. We will be back again!

The online pictures just don't do it justice - the views are just magnificent. The house has everything you'd need and Louise, the local manager, met us on arrival and helped us out with some great local knowledge. The area is wonderful for walking and just taking in stunning coastal views. The local town of Castletownbere is very close and has everything you need for your holiday.

Had a great stay at Karen's. Ideal location only a few minutes from Schull

Stunning view and adorable cottage with everything you need. Super close to Gap of Dunloe which has been the highlight of our trip so far!

Wonderful little studio apartment to stay in if you're in the area. Close to some lovely places and stocked with everything you need to live well. Sam and his family were incredibly friendly as well, always offering their support.

Highly recommend Gina's place- peaceful, very comfortable and well equipped. Great host who provides plenty of breakfast provisions, which is a big bonus.

For adventurous travelers looking for an experience rather than merely a place to stay, this place and location has a lot to offer. After staying at chalets and places convenient for one night stops, it was fun to drive through Glengariff Nature Preserve through the winding roads up into the hilltop location surrounded by woods with openings looking out over the beautiful hilly terrain. Chopping wood to heat the small apartment heightened the feeling of living as one of the locals for a while. We appreciated Gesine’s helpful notes to get there and enjoyed chatting with her about life in this peaceful place. While day trips taking the ferry to Garnish Island or driving over Caha Pass to Killarney National Park were nice, we are glad we took advantage of the location and spent time away from tourist-filled areas to enjoy quiet, peaceful hikes along the nearby Riverwalk and through some of Pooleen Woods. This was a great addition to our first-time travel experience in Ireland!

We loved that the ice cream store and the lovely bakery was directly across the street. The apt. Smelled clean and was clean and comfortable. We will rent it again in the future. Very nice.

oh my goodness !!! One word "Perfection" Mary's place was exceptional very thoughtful and better than expected 👌 would definitely be back.

Gerard’s place was off the beaten path which is just what we were looking for. The drive there and the views at the studio were amazing. The studio was very cozy and had all the cooking utensils we needed. There were plenty of friendly sheep and we even got to feed some. That was a lot of fun. Gerard is super friendly and nice to chat with. We would stay here again!

A beautiful apartment in a beautiful area. Everything we needed was there. Easy walk to the pier/water. Super, super comfy furnishings and spotlessly clean. Beds were so comfy and the 'attic' bedroom was very very cozy. Wish we could have stayed longer! Mary was so communicative and kind & understanding. Amazing to find a spot this great that will allow a baby and a dog. We will be back!

Very nice appartement and Julie was a great host, very reactive and helpful

Wonderful stay at William and Joanne's. Everything you'd want from a host and a place. They were so friendly and accommodating, really went above and beyond to be helpful and make our stay memorable. The place is clean and comfy and the spot is truly beautiful. Very happy we stayed here.

Our stay was great! The place was very clean and centrally located within Clonakilty. We spent a night in the Brewery Bar below…great time with local people. Camilla provided with us with some nice starter food…much appreciated! Just be careful of a couple low doorways:) Would stay here again!

We enjoyed our stay at John’s. He and Claire were very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed making simple meals with the delicious lamb and fresh salmon available in town. Also having laundry facilities was fantastic, easy to use machines. Great view from our window, but we were sorry to miss the donkey s, they were elsewhere. A side note: The bedding in Ireland is interesting. Every bnb we stayed in (4) had one duvet and no top sheet. We found them to be too warm everywhere we went. But that’s no shade on the bnb. Just the way things are done, I guess.

Fantastic stay for our 4 days in Killarney. Hosts were amazing and the space was huge and perfect for our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 kids). The kitchen was wonderfully appointed (better than ours back home!) and allowed us to cook several meals at "home" which was very helpful. The kids LOVED the dogs, too! The location was perfect, just minutes from the Gap of Dunloe and maybe 12 minutes from Killarney Town. Laundry room was very welcome and perfect for the midpoint of our road trip around Ireland. Couldn't ask for a better stay!

Lovely coastal home with beautiful views. The hike was cozy and private. I would definitely recommend this location and would come back for another stay.

Fabulous location that is walkable to many attractions as well as excellent restaurants and pubs. Super cute property that looks out on the water. Appreciated them leaving coffee! Don’t miss the roaring donkey pub on Wednesday night.

This is a rural splendour. Private, secluded and relaxing. All the amenities and so much more, highly recommend.
