Kid-friendly holiday rentals in County Kerry

Martin and Bridgette were excellent hosts. 3 things we look for are cleanliness, comfort and quiet. We got these in abundance. The view from the house was stunning and seeing all the deer in the garden was very special. Good base for touring the penninsulas with great food in town. I highly recommend if you want to find peace and serenity. Thank you, Martin and Bridgette for being so kind, responsive and helpful. XXX

We absolutely loved Catherine’s cottage. After staying in dozens of Airbnb’s over the years all over the world, this one stood out. We loved the peaceful location with beautiful views, animals, and walks. It was a great base for visiting the Ring of Kerry and the vicinity. I really appreciate the extra touches that make a place feel like home. The kitchen was well equipped with everything you need to make meals. We especially loved the sunroom and beautiful landscaping. We were sad to leave!

We absolutely loved our stay! The property was clean, well-appointed, and exactly as described. The host was incredibly responsive and made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway!

We spent four unforgettable nights at Seaview House and couldn’t have asked for a better stay. The panoramic views of Derrynane Bay and the Skellig Islands were absolutely breathtaking, and the peaceful setting made it the perfect retreat. The house was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed to cook several meals at home. After long days of hiking and sightseeing, we really appreciated the comfy beds and hot showers. We loved watching the sheep graze just outside and taking the short walk to the nearby pier, where we met friendly locals and even found some sea glass on the rocky beach. The location is ideal—close to Caherdaniel and beautiful beaches, but still quiet and relaxing. With easy access to the Kerry Way, Skellig tours, and nearby historic sites, this home is a perfect base for exploring the area. We truly loved our time here and would highly recommend Seaview House to anyone looking for a scenic and peaceful getaway on the Ring of Kerry.

What a great stay at a beautifully well appointed home. Plenty of space and lots nice touches to make you feel welcome. Siobhan was awesome and so friendly. Her communication was quick and timely. Highly recommend this place to stay.

John is a wonderful host… so helpful and welcoming. The cottage is peaceful and serene, in a wonderful location to visit many attractions and beautiful areas of Ireland. We appreciated the breakfast items they provided from their dairy farm!!

We stayed 3 nights in June 2025 with 4 adults. The property and surroundings are amazing. Peaceful countryside setting but with modern amenities. We very much enjoyed the outdoor sitting area and small gas BBQ during the long summer evenings. Marie was friendly and always responsive, even with simple problems (like how to lock the front door). The kitchen was large and well equipped with capsule coffee machine and a nice view of the MacGillycuddy's Reeks. The bedrooms were comfortable with very nice comforters. There was a pellet stove in the living room that we didn't use - as well as TV and WiFi. Bathrooms were modern. Killarney is about a 20-25 minute drive, and Marie provides a list of local restaurants. We instead grilled steaks and enjoyed the views. A great place for the views and easy access to Dunloe Gap / Ring of Kerry / Dingle. A great alternative to staying in Killarney / Kenmare / Tralee.

We loved our stay. The view from upstairs was simply stunning and a wonderful place to sit and watch the Atlantic coast and big changing sky. Truely beautiful. The house is well appointed for self catering and the beach down the road a treat. We could easily have stayed for weeks.

Rory was an excellent host. We were pleasantly surprised by the warm welcome including some fresh scones, apples, bread, milk, butter and jam. This was very appreciated by us! The fireplace made the stay extra warm and cozy. We would recommend this AirBnB for anyone looking for a nice getaway!

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!

I stayed at their place with my partner for a couple of days. The place is accessible and close to Dingle city/ the bay area. Aine and Denis were lovely as well, their place was squeaky clean and very well kept. There is a small backyard area which opens up to a great mountain view and its perfect to enjoy the sunset. We would love to stay here again :)

Great Airbnb! Spacious, comfortable, and well stocked. I recommend this for future guests!

Comfortable accommodation in a great location. We met Paul and he was really helpful with local places to go. This is a beautiful part of the country.

Everything was fine, we really liked it.

John was communicative and helpful from the get go. His place was easy to find and access. As others have said it is in the heart of the town, making it close to everything, but also a bit loud on a weekend - a white noise machine took care of all that though. Great spot and very convenient!

Nice place, well kept with amenities. Great location, short drive from town centre.

Very cute, comfy place to stay! It's close enough to Dingle that it takes little time to get in town, but far enough to enjoy the peace of the countryside. Helen was very friendly and courteous, going so far as to take care of our drying laundry when it started to rain and we were away. Would definitely stay here again!

A “must” to stay at! Julie was the ultimate host! Any request was not an issue for her. The place was spotlessly clean, with easy to use amenities. It looked lovely and it felt lovely! We did not want for anything! It was an easy 30 minute stroll to the town centre too. Highly recommended!

A cosy but spacious little nest surrounded by gorgeous scenery The location is absolutely fantastic as it is so close to the town center of Killarney, the entrance to the ring of Kerry and an hour away from Dingle, which was our next stop Mike and Sinead were the most amazing hosts as they provided us with lots of information and recommendations Highly recommend

Absolutely loved our stay here! Very accessible to all the pubs and food Killarney has to offer (less than 5 min walk) and was on a quiet street. Parking was very easy with a huge lot right next to the entrance of the apartment complex. You do have to pay to park between 8:30-18:30, but it was fairly cheap. Instructions to get inside were very clear, and the manual had step by step instructions for all amenities (including how to heat water for a shower). This place came with everything we needed including a fan for at night! Would absolutely recommend this place!!!

John's place is perfect to explore Killarney National Park. The house has everything you need to enjoy your stay. We were even greeted with fresh fruit and milk on arrival. You need a car to get around, bit Killarney is only about 10 minutes away. We would definitely recommend staying here to explore the area.

Bridie was fantastic, met us at check-in and suggested where to go for dinner - she also helped us map our route to the Cliffs of Moher the next day via the ferry. She was so kind and we felt right at home. The cottage is fantastic. I just wish we spent more than one night!

We loved our stay in this spacious and comfortable apartment right in the heart of Castlegregory. We appreciated the many practical touches, such as the well-thought-out kitchen, two couches, access to washer and dryer, front entrance with easy access to Tailor’s Row and back entrance with private parking. We liked Maura’s design aesthetics a lot (the clock, the electric kettle, the cool bedroom shades, etc). It was wonderfully and unexpectedly quiet after dark—no sounds at all from cars, planes, dogs, street conversations. We have no complaints at all!

Lovely and peaceful location
