Cottage vacation rentals in County Cork

A fantastic place to stay in a really great part of west cork. The house is perfectly situated with a couple of minutes walk down to the beach for swims on a private path. It’s quiet and secure and has its own sauna with a great view. Highly recommend!!

Had a lovely few days away staying in Kate's accommodation. She was very helpful and great to deal with. The accommodation was perfect for a quiet getaway and met all of our needs, would recommend to a friend.

It was beautiful and we really enjoyed how private it was but how quickly we could drive to Clonakilty!

We had a lovely staying at graces house. Very peaceful and quiet house. Great location alot of things to do in the local area and beyond. House had everything we could need and more. House was very spacious and great for just the 2 of us. The local produce such as milk, ice cream &scones etc was such a nice touch and of course were delicious. Nice to have access to a hot tub whenever we wanted and hot tub was fired up and waiting for our arrival as well as logs to top up if needed.

Had a wonderful time staying here. Absolutely gorgeous place. Really quiet and peaceful.

This was a great property. Every little thing had been thought of from toiletries to bathrobes and flip flops for the hot tub. There was a fridge full of food and a table of treats to help us celebrate our birthdays. The location was great with a shop, take away and two pubs all within walking distance. There was also a ruined castle, interesting bridge and old abbey within walking distance so there was enough to do for our short stay without having to drive anywhere. Our host was great even allowing a late check out so we were able to enjoy one last dip in the hot tub. We’d highly recommend this property and are already planning a return trip.

This is our 2nd visit to Trag and it will not be our last. The cottage is equipped with everything you need if you would like to lock yourself away. A lovely kitchen to cook while enjoying the view then a soak in the hot tub again with the amazing view. Skiberreen and Baltimore are a short drive away with some amazing restaurants even Michelin star. Sarah however is a great host easily contactable and there to give recommendations.

we enjoyed Colette’s place to the fullest and were sad we only booked it for one night - the location is stunning, amazing views all around with ponies and cows next door :) spacious apartment with more than everything you could need, made for a perfect holiday :) she even thought about the kids and had some toys ready to play with! All that with super easy and nice combination made it a great experience - Thanks Colette!

If you are looking for a quiet and peaceful getaway in this area look no further. We absolutely loved this cottage and the hosts are very nice and helpful. We will certainly return.

An absolutely fantastic weekend in county Cork, and Barbara’s place was the cherry on top - Fantastic host and a beautiful home. Everywhere was spotless, easy to check in and even left us with a few food bits to enjoy, 10/10 host and place - we will be coming back! Cannot recommend enough 😁

Eileen's house provided a truly comfortable and welcoming base to explore the amazing Beara Peninsula. The property was just as described and depicted -- including the amenities and gorgeous views that match the photos but have to be seen to be appreciated. The house itself is spotless, has a great walk-in shower and modern appliances including a washer and dryer. Eileen herself is part of the house's charm -- she went out of her way to walk us through it and then took more time to introduce us to all the many natural highlights of the peninsula, from hiking trails to a ferry ride to drives that reveal one grand vista after another. And it's all far less crowded than other Wild Atlantic Way destinations we've been to. Eileen responded quickly to questions and was a cheerful delight. She knows the area inside out and is glad to share tips with guests. It's simply a great location to visit and this is a wonderful place to stay.

We used Mary’s Cottage as our starting point for the Ring of Kerry. It was a nice place to stay with easy parking and a fully equipped kitchen.

Rose cottage is designed really well, combines an architectural sympathy with the surrounding landscape whilst the simplicity of the uncluttered interior make for very comfortable living.

Fabulous location and the cottage so cosy. Helen was a wonderful host.

The most beautiful place and the most accommodating host we have stayed with in Ireland or the UK. They went the extra mile with small gestures to make us feel welcome. Can’t recommend highly enough.

I have stayed in this cottage quite a few times over the years - and I always enjoy it immensely. The cottage is lovely, decorated in a style that suits its age, and set in the most stunning scenery. It feels as though you're in the middle of nowhere - it is so quiet the deer come right up to the patch of grass in front of the house in the evenings and there are so many different birds it's almost like an orchestra - but you're definitely not: There are two good restaurants in the area, a nice pub near a harbour, a lunchroom in gorgeous gardens and a very well stocked shop-and-tearoom only a 20 minute drive away. So yes, I will come again!

We loved our stay at Paddy and Riona’s place! Very cute and cozy loft with a lovely backyard area! The apartment was well equipped for cooking - had all the bits you could need. Had the best time, thank you!

We really enjoyed our stay , beautiful and peaceful. Perfect location for touring. Very clean comfortable house . Will highly recommend this property . Thank you Rita for our lovely stay.

We had a really lovely week in John & Eileen's beautiful, cosy cottage. It is wonderfully located close to all the amenities of Killarney and yet also in a peaceful country setting. The cottage is exactly as shown in the photos with the added bonus of a working fireplace which was a real treat to use each night. Eileen looked after us perfectly making sure we had everything we needed for our stay. Overall we are very happy to recommend John and Eileen and their beautiful cottage to anyone.

Really clean and comfy place — spacious and well equipped. Super quiet and peaceful, perfect to chill after a day of exploring. Great location, just steps from Killarney National Park and close to the town centre. We loved our stay, and Sydney, their gorgeous dog, was such a sweet welcome! :)

This is a beautifully-appointed cottage and Jacinta is the perfect host. This Airbnb has everything you could wish for and more. It is spacious, clean, very comfortable and in a spectacular setting in the hills of West Cork. There are so many great places to visit and explore, and a wide variety of top class restaurants to dine in. A highly-recommended base for holidaying in one of the most scenic parts of Ireland.

This is the perfect place to stay in Cork. We didn't want to leave. It was walking distance from Ballymaloe Cooking School which was the purpose of our trip to visit a friend there. Caroline has the place looking so cosy and even had milk and bread and butter for us to have in the morning.

Nice old cottage, could use some upgrades. Quiet area close to Killarny. By car, about 5 minutes.

Just wow. The scenery is unmatched and the cottage is so cute and quite comfortable for two. Looks just like the photos and has everything you need. Jonathan is friendly, responsive and has a wealth of knowledge about the area. We loved chatting with him. The hiking was the perfect blend of challenging and rewarding. As a Canadian driving on the left for the first time on this trip, we found the drive isn’t too bad but it is a bit rough so just make sure your car can handle it. Limited cell service, amenities to cook if you’d like to, or grab a meal only 25 mins away make this a perfect secluded getaway. You gotta book this place.
