Vacation rentals with a fireplace in County Galway

What a beautiful home, and it truly felt like home. The views are absolutely stunning—imagine seeing a 3,000 year old stone fort while washing dishes and the ever changing colored sea right out the front windows. Bernie is the perfect host and her communication is instant. We hope to return!

A lovely and cozy house in a peaceful location. We loved the quietness to get away from a busy city environment. Anna was super responsive and the welcome manual was really helpful and clear full with local recommendations. The house itself was clean and just felt really warm and welcoming. A perfect place to unwind and have quality time with the family!

Wonderfully serene & spacious country home, very well cared for. Wood and fire starter provided for the fireplace to warm us up for tea & dvd throwback evenings. We had a lovely time at Helen’s sweet place 💚

A great place for a week away from it all. The house is clean, warm and dry which are what you need on the west coast. Great location right on the lake but also close to Clonbur and Cong with lots of options to eat and drink a good Guinness. Would definitely recommend.

Husband, myself and 2 sons had a fabulous stay. The house was beautiful; even better than the pictures. It sits high up a country road with fantastic views. It’s off the beaten path but it only adds to its appeal. The furnishings, kitchen/baths,beds are all high quality and comfortable. Marion and the property manager,Patricia were helpful with all the needed info from start to end. I hope to come back and stay again. In

We booked this magnificent home for a portion of our family to attend a vow renewal in the area, and it was everything that we hoped for. With four bedrooms, two living rooms, a huge kitchen and eating space, and gorgeous grounds - the entire group was able to stay comfortably, and enjoy cooking and sharing meals together, without being on top of each other. The furnishings are also very well done. Anne and Maree were extremely helpful, and always available to answer questions. I can highly recommend this listing to others.

What an absolutely beautiful stay! The house is beautiful and on so much stunning land. John personally came down and gave us a little map with all the paths we could walk on the land which was so helpful. It was a good HQ point as we went on a lot of day trips and I could not recommend this cottage more! Can’t wait to come back!

A fantastic location with a view in every direction, each very special and therefore never boring. A good starting point for several (hiking) tours. Get tips on this too. Sun (if it shines) from morning to evening on or in the house. We have already decided after a few days that we want to come back next year. To relax, enjoy and unwind, one of the best accommodations I know. And don't worry about the access, it's really absolutely doable and doesn't require a special car or a special driver.

Wonderful spacious apartment just outside of Galway. Very easy to get in and out of town on the 409 bus. Valerie is a friendly, very responsive. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here, both exploring the city and doing a day trip to the cliffs of Moher. We would definitely stay here again.

Stephanie's place was excellent! Great location; it was close to everything but still quiet. The place the very clean and Stephanie answered all of our questions fast and effectively. We would 100% stay here again!!

The weather was bad, and our host warned us that the accommodation was free an hour earlier. A big thank you to him for this follow-up and hospitality. The studio is peaceful, very close to restaurants and shops. The village of Clifden is close (30 min drive) to many tourist attractions. Discovering Connemara while staying in Clifden was very nice.

What can I say, it is a wonderful property, the views are spectacular. Very comfortable bed. Mary was so warm and welcoming, made us feel right at home. We enjoyed sitting looking out at the wonderful view, seeing the lights across Lough Corrib, I’m sure that image will stay with us for a very long time. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

The location was absolutely perfect for everything we had planned.

We loved our stay in Galway! The apartment had unbelievable views and within walking distance to many pubs and restaurants. Highly recommended!

Lovely hosts and a real feeling of getting away from it all. Loved the fire too.

John's little cottage was beautiful. The views from the cottage stunning. To be able to hear and see the ocean was so tranquil. John was extremely friendly and came to my rescue as I got a flat tyre . My dog Duke loved the beach he explored it for hours . If you want peace and quiet with the most beautiful views John's cottage is a must . I definitely will be going back again . Tbh I didn't want to leave there.

We had a great family weekend with my extended family! The kids loved the games room and the big garden and the adults enjoyed the games too! a gorgeous big home, very comfortable and clean 😊 Brenda was very helpful, always responding with any queries 😊

Our stay was fantastic. The house was wonderful, nicely designed with lots of space. The beds were comfortable & the bedrooms had ample space. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies & the kitchen table was big enough for a large crowd Deidre was so very helpful & kind. She helped us with securing transportation to Galway one day. She gave us tons of suggestions for activities & restaurants. The house was perfect.

Carola was great in all the communication. The house was perfect for our family with 5 children of different ages. Toys and books and enough spaces for each to chill. Lovely outside space and inside all available that you may need. Would certainly come back

Located in a private forest, Finola's estate is a living history. It's my first time staying in such an old building. A quiet country road takes us into the woods, then the fountain welcomed us, just like entering an elegant Victorian film. The house is equipped with all modern facilities and even a bathtub. The first day, the wifi was not functioning, but Finola helped promptly. Minor flaws: the cups were not cleanly washed, and providing toiletries would make it even more perfect.

Gerrys place is a must stay in Clifden! It’s right in the heart of the beautiful town, lots of incredible restaurants and pubs and lovely boutique shops too. Gerrys top floor apartment was immaculate (the cleanest most well stocked airbnb we’ve stayed in for a while!) lovely showers, comfy beds and the view from the lounge window is amazing overlooking the town. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay. John was very responsive and made it easy for our large family. We loved being next to the Caves which was one of our favorite activities. We had a blast and are so grateful. Thanks again John.
