No 2 Clock Tower Lodge, Leap, West Cork

AliRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We had a wonderful stay here, surrounded with hills and a quick drive to many little walks, the coast, interesting towns and about 1.5h from areas further afield such as the Ring of Kerry or Mizzen Head. The space itself is comfortable and clean, and was perfect for our visit (us + 2 young kids + 2 elderly parents) — being able to let the kids play outside is a real gift. Hot tub gets nice and hot and was a great treat to end the day. Thank you Marcella for a wonderful stay, and for being so responsive and helping us with a few of the bits we needed / had forgotten at home! Xx

Caherdaniel-Ring of Kerry, hot tub, kayaks, bikes

MelindaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We absolutely loved this cozy, impeccably clean house—so much so, we didn’t want to leave! My favorite part was enjoying coffee each morning with the beautiful view. The extra living space gave our family room to spread out, and the sinks in each bedroom were a great touch for keeping things organized. The beds and towels were soft and comfy, and we were pleasantly surprised by the brand-new washer and dryer (with detergent!). My kids loved exploring the area and heading to the beach. There’s a cute café down the road and a nice pub in town—just be aware that places close early, so plan meals ahead. We didn’t use the hot tub since it seemed a bit tricky to figure out, but overall, this was one of our favorite Airbnb stays!

Contemporary Cottage in the Wicklow Mountains

LyaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
My favourite place on Earth 😊 While it’s close enough to Dublin, it’s so private and peaceful it feels like you are completely away from civilisation in the most positive way. The surrounding are absolutely stunning, and there is a lot of sightseeing nearby. This place is just perfect for disconnecting from the busy city life. And lastly, Richard and Ben are fantastic hosts, very friendly, responsive and helpful. I would highly recommend this place and will definitely be coming back here myself 💚

Luxurious Beach House

SusanRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We had two families (9 people) staying for a special occasion. Ages from 12 to 90. The ground floor bedroom with balcony is stunning in the evening. There is so much outdoor space, the kids loved the little football pitch. The location was great, walking distance to the town, the beach and pitch & putt. We had a few queries coming up to the stay and during and all were responded to. We were very lucky to have stayed here.

Perfect Couples Retreat with private Jacuzzi

FrancescaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We are just back from our West Cork holiday, and what a holiday! Such a beautiful part of the world. We really enjoyed staying at Patti and Chris’s lovely little guesthouse. A perfect ‘away from it all’ experience. Waking up to birdsong and peaceful views was magical. To top it off we arranged to have the most de-licious 5 ⭐ meal for our last evening. Made by Chris a (chef) and provided by Patti with delicious veg and salad from their garden! Fabulous hosts who couldn’t have been more accommodating 💚. Thank you Patti and Chris 🍀

The Red Bridge Cottage

SarahRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We had a truly wonderful stay at this charming cottage. The location is absolutely perfect—peaceful, quiet, and surrounded by beautiful countryside. It was the ideal spot to relax and unwind, with nature right at our doorstep. The cottage itself was cozy, clean, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed. It felt like a real home away from home. Our host Mairead was fantastic— She made sure we had everything we needed and had the turf fire lit on our arrival. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience the beauty and tranquility of Donegal!

Our stay with Margaret on the farm was absolutely fantastic. The location and the views from the house are amazing with some great fishing on the grand canal only 2 minutes away. A great place for walking and cycling with excellent access and parking along it. There are some great places to eat in the nearby towns 20 minutes away. Margaret is wonderful at making you feel welcome and comfortable.

The Lodge @ Hushabye Farm

DeanRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
The cottage is an amazing getaway, a good digital detox in lovely surroundings with Alpacas for company. Paul was the perfect host throughout. We travelled with our pet dog too. The cottage is very well finished with all conveniences. The nearest supermarket is 10mins drive and we cooked in the cottage both nights. We wanted the two nights as a nice relaxing break. We did some hillwalking in the Slieve Bloom Mountains nearby. Highly recommend for a relaxing break away

"Stable Cottage"

StefanRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Helen's place is an ideal countryside getaway. The cottage has everything a family of 4 can desire for. Downstairs fireplace with logs and coal provided were an added bonus. The fridge came stocked with all the necessities for making breakfast. Tea and coffee and fresh milk and juice were also provided. Would necessary consider staying again, and would bring family or friends along next time.

The Hen House Cottage

RobertaRating, 5 stars5 days ago
A beautifully designed small house with wonderful character! The space was so welcoming and cozy, the animals charming and Robert was very accommodating and fun to talk to! We are inspired to build a tiny home of our own, borrowing from some of his excellent ideas…. The cabinet bed, underfloor heating, compact and well-designed kitchen, indirect lighting…. Spotlessly clean and plenty of hot water too. A great stay.

Hotwell House - Boutique Luxury in Old Coach House

GayleRating, 5 stars1 week ago
If you want to enjoy peaceful time and space in an emerald oasis, you have found it here. My spouse, friends and I felt right at home and enchanted by the landscape and accommodations. We each had a separate bedroom, beautifully appointed and comfortable beds. The kitchen and family room were our gathering spaces for connection and conversation. On the "wet rain" day, we enjoyed a movie from the hundreds available and offered by the host. Nick generously offered laundry facilities, tennis equipment, a trampoline and gorgeous walking trails. I highly recommend this welcoming opportunity for your travels.

Traditional Kerry cottage near Glanmore Lake

LeontienRating, 5 stars1 month ago
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!

The Old Sawmill, Lough Eske 18th Century Mill

PeggyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Came to Ireland for a family vacation - 8 adults and a 1 year old. This was our third AirBnb on the trip and cannot say enough about how wonderful it was! So much history but with modern amenities. It was the best part of our trip. Went on many walks - over to the castle and to Harvey's Point stopping at the Famine Pot and seeing great views of the lake & farm animals along the way. Stayed three nights and used the pool/pond and sauna every day. The dining & living rooms were really spacious. We cooked all of our meals - the kitchen is a great set up with loads of dishes and anything you could need. The butcher in town had a great selection. Musical instruments were a huge bonus. It was quite warm for May so we didn't have a chance to have any fires - but the fireplaces would be wonderful for cool nights. There is also the 'wagon' which has a double bed, small kitchen and seating area and an adjacent full bathroom available. Rose was always a message away and super helpful. Loved it!

Highly recommend for anyone looking for a tranquil getaway—especially for those with pets who love the outdoors! We’ll definitely be back.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Barmeath Castle, Chapel Wing

AshleyRating, 5 stars22 months ago
Castle Barmeath was an incredible Airbnb experience. Lord & Lady Bellew showed us around their 400 Year old Castle which has remained in their family all this time. I’m just amazed at how history one place can hold. There was about 300 acres surrounded by stone walls. Trails trough a gorgeously manicured forest with many trails leading to secrete walled gardens full of fruit trees and flowers. There was even a natural swimming pool and stone bridge over a lake. I feel so lucky to have gotten to experience something so grand and magical!
