Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Ireland

We’ve had a fantastic stay at Black Lodge. Fiona is a wonderful host, the house was immaculate and has beautiful views, a great base to explore Kinsale and Cork. We felt very lucky being able to walk down to the beach and we spotted lots of different birds on the way. The park and bakery in Ballinspittle were so handy. The girls loved playing fetch with D-for! We recommend the drive to Blarney Castle, the Scilly walk to Charles Fort in Kinsale and a visit to Dock Beach. We’ve lots of happy memories to take home with us.

Michaels place was absolutely incredible.. the house, the views and everything in between! We couldn’t have asked for a better spot to stay. Kerry was more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. Michael was very responsive and gave us recommendations to do. My kids enjoyed playing outside all day. Also, loved all the big windows in the house and having a fantastic view from each one! Would love to come back and stay again one day! Thank you again for the lovely stay!

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.!

Richard is an incredible host and the bus is just an amazing experience. We'd love to come back!

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! 😊❤️

We have stayed at many places in Ireland over last few years but Dolphin Beach Lodge has become our favourite place so far. The house is beautiful and so clean with everything you might need for your stay or more. The location is brilliant with breathtaking views and its own private beach. We got very lucky with the weather and even spotted a couple of very playful dolphins on our last morning here. Clodagh is one of the best hosts we have stayed with who even allowed us to check in early and check out late to make the most of the weather. We have already started to plan our next stay.

Loved staying at Tackle Lodge, beautiful environment, beautifully designed and decorated and the donkeys were great to sit and watch. Thank you for a lovely stay

We had the most amazing time. The accommodation is really like no other. Such a unique experience. I would highly recommend it. The bed was so comfortable, bathrooms so clean and spacious, and has a bath to die for. The battery operated lights around the inside of the house were a lovely touch. If you feel cool in the evenings the accommodation heats up within 20 minutes, so quick. The hot tub was a treat, the location of it is amazing, the fairy lights along the path to the hot tub was magical. The scenery is so beautiful regardless of the weather conditions. Location wise it was perfect, so close to all that glendalough has to offer. We ate in the Wicklow heather as recommended by Michael, this place will not disappoint. Michael was so cooperative and very friendly. I will definitely be back!!!!! You will not be disappointed 🥰

I was blown away by the Dream Barn... wasn't sure quite what to expect beforehand, but my GOODNESS! Jim has thought of absolutely everything. The cottage is very maximalist, but in a fun, eclectic way. Old typewriters, sewing machine, *2* record players to choose from and a kitchen with everything you might think you need and then some... and the place is VERY clean! Neighboring cows came over and checked us out through our window, and we fed the chickens that share the patio. Several kitties stopped by to check us out. I would go out of my way to stay here again. Jim is ridiculously undercharging for such an incredible treat of a place. You'll contemplate moving to Moynalty after your stay, just so you could have Jim as a neighbor and friend.

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!

Perfect for my needs; always spotlessly clean. Plenty of space+great communication. Will be back thanks

beautiful place, very safe and child friendly my little one loved the horses, I can't say enough about Breda and Joe so friendly and welcoming and homemade scones and bread to top it off!

Best stay we had in Ireland! What a beautiful location. We were given a lot of great tips on what to do/ where to eat in the area. When you wake up you have the best view on the horses nearby. We wish we would’ve booked some more nights here!

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

Amazing stay!! My boyfriend & I got engaged in the backyard! Absolutely beautiful place, and David & Irene were great hosts, who were so kind and inviting! We got a whole tour of the property and all of its history. Hopefully be back some day!

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!

Miranda was a great host! Very friendly and easy to communicate with. Her place is a hidden gem. Easy to get on the Ring of Kerry and beautiful walks in the area. Thank you Miranda for the wonderful stay ❤️

What an amazing place to stay. The view from the apartment and surrounding area was breathtaking. Bridie provided great instructions to get there as well as a wonderful recommendation for dinner. Only regret is we didn’t stay longer!!

Lovely stay in Caroline's upstairs accommodation. A home from home in a peaceful, green and remote location. Caroline's welcome was warm and generous. Would certainly stay again

We had a wonderful relaxing time at the Pod. Maria could not have done enough for us. The surroundings are amazing and tranquil. The hot tub was amazing and added to the relaxing atmosphere created by Maria. We will definitely be returning. Highly Recommend

Elaine is the most wonderful, friendly and kind person. She made us feel so welcome, like we were part of the family. Excellent location, and a fantastic space with everything you need. Highly recommend!!

Loved our stay here, very peaceful and comfortable. Thank you :)

Beautiful area! Della’s place was very clean and charmingly designed. Definitey recommended if you have a car. The walks to Liscannor and the Cliffs of Moher are at least an hour either direction, so bear that in mind, especially if you have a suitcase. We very much enjoyed the scenery, and the peaceful views through the skylights! Della communicated very well and stocked the kitchen generously for us. This place is a fantastic choice for staying in the area.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars! Easily the best host I’ve ever had with AirBnB. Carmel was extremely kind, friendly, and helpful. She and Ted greeted us when we arrived, and we loved the conversations we had with them throughout our stay. She gave great recommendations. The apartment was wonderful and had everything you may need- including a washing machine, kitchen items, and even a hair flat iron! There was parking at the house. The walk was about 20 minutes to town, but we thought it was worth it for the experience, the parking, and the incredible views. There is a great view out of the front and back windows. We would highly recommend.
