Cottage holiday rentals in Goleen

It’s hard to even describe the beauty of this place, the cottage was perfect and the amenities are wonderful, everything you need to have a great time. The grounds are truly breathtaking, there is a real magic about this property, loved every minute. Gerard and Ann were excellent hosts, thank you!

My family stayed at Esther's place for 4 nights. We had the most wonderful time! The house has beautiful views of the ocean and is a short walk from both Inchydoney beach and the hotel. The house was clean and spacious with room for the whole family including our dog. Esther was welcoming and provided lots of great recommendations for the local area. We would definitely recommend Esther's place to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday by the beach!

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.

I could not recommend a stay at these poolside cottages enough! Great value for money. Ideal for a romantic short break away. The location is perfect and the cottage is stocked with everything you could possibly need. The nearby town Clonakilty is worth a trip to and is easily accessible by car or taxi,

Stunning location, friendly and responsive hosts, clean and well stocked. The hot tub and sauna is a real treat! Local recommendations all brilliant. Would definitely stay there again!

We had a wonderful stay! The house was absolutely perfect for our family of two adults and three children — clean, modern, and very comfortable. Everything was so thoughtfully prepared, from the fresh scones on arrival to the local ice cream, milk, and butter, which were lovely touches that made us feel right at home. The hot tub was a real treat and the perfect way to relax after a busy day exploring the area. There’s so much to do nearby — our family especially enjoyed paddle boarding and kayaking in Rosscarbery. Clonakilty is a charming town with great spots for shopping, coffee, and lunch, and the Clonakilty Pudding factory tour was a fun and unique experience. We’d definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and well-equipped base to explore this beautiful part of Ireland.

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

Gérards place is a must-stay if staying in Clonakilty. We swam every day in the heated pool, played tennis in the afternoon in their private tennis court and walked the local area as well. Stunning grounds to walk as well around the property. 100% would stay again Thank you Connor

It was an absolute pleasure to stay at Tom & Judy's Beautiful home , spacious , relaxing , fantastic views which included grazing deetlrs in the front garden and foxes , rabbits , hares and a multi dude of birds to watch every evening . On arrival we were treated to home baked tarts and cakes in the fridge ( which were delicious) , treats left for the pup , clear instructions of how to use everything in the house and Tom had no bother answering us straight away via text when I was enquiring about something in particular . Just a 5 minute drive from bustling Kenmare and you are not far in any direction from some spectacular drives , we would highly recommend staying at Tom & Judys place , it is out of this world , thanks so much again , Mick & Irene .

Eileen and Robert were perfect hosts. They could not have been more helpful and the cottage was spotlessly clean. The location was as excellent for touring and our hosts had given us excellent advise of where to visit. This was our first Air B@B and everything was perfect. We will definitely be going back in the future.

Wir hatten eine unbeschreiblich schöne Woche im Snug. Die Unterkunft ist unglaublich gemütlich und eine hervorragende Ausgangsposition um Westcork zu erkunden. Clonakilty bietet tolle Pubs und Frances hat uns großartige Restaurants empfohlen. Insgesamt ist Frances eine empfehlenswerte Gastgeberin. Sie war immer erreichbar und super hilfsbereit. Wir können das Snug zu 100% weiter empfehlen. Danke für alles!

We stayed in Ritchie’s cottage for 3 nights with a dog and a toddler. Ritchie was very friendly and helpful. The cottage had everything we needed and the surrounding area was so beautiful. Thank you Ritchie for your hospitality!

Annette was a great host from start to finish. Very responsive, attentive, and a very friendly person in general! A welcome hamper for the first breakfast was there for us when we arrived, which was a lovely touch! The house was as described, very clean and cosy, and an excellent launch pad for travelling around the county. Has all the utensils you need for cooking too, which we made good use of. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants something private, has dogs, and wants to see the local sites. Thanks again, Annette!!!

Deuxième séjour au cottage sur la jetée. La maison et la vue sur la baie sont toujours aussi bien même sous la pluie. Idéalement situé au calme à Kenmare, restaurants, boutiques et promenades à pied. Merci Hélène !

Mairéad was the friendliest and most helpful host, giving us suggestions of what to see and do, even booking a table at a local restaurant for us. Even more special were the welcoming scones, butter and jam on the table and Mairéad turning up to greet us with an armful of beautiful, freshly cut garden flowers! Jenny the donkey and the local pusscat that joined us on our walks were an added bonus! All in all a lovely, homely cottage in a stunning location… highly recommend!

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.

We absolutely loved our stay at Hanna's Cottage. From the moment we walked in, it felt like home. The furniture and all the little touches really create an atmosphere, we found we did not want to leave and just enjoyed watching the view and the boats on the water. The cottage is beautiful and warm and cosy. We went for a lot of walks in the area, its really beautiful there and a lot of nice places to visit. Vi kommer gjerne tilbake! :)

We had a glorious few days in Julie’s beautiful cottage. We stayed there many years ago and the cottage and gardens were as lovely and as well kept as we remember. Lots of beautiful walks and cycles from our doorstep, not to mention the views from the cottage. We were sorry to leave but hope to return again.

There are literally know words to describe the beauty of this place I almost think it’s to nice to be shared with other people. The Hosts were extremely patient with me and my party…due to a motorcycle breaking down we arrived (very late) but the host was very understanding and very helpful. I would 1000% recommended this stay, and I my self would love to come back at a later date and have more time exploring the beautiful sites. many thanks Lewis !

Wow, wow and wow. It way exceeded our expectations and just loved it . Spotless clean and lots of extra things that made our time extra special. Made to feel very welcome and wound highly recommend this place

A very special house in a very special location on an island that will quietly steal your heart. The peace settles on you gently over the days spent in this beautifully designed house with everything at hand that you need. So close to the red walking loop that within 15 mins you are on the cliffs with magnificent views. Liam could not have been more accommodating as a host.

worth each payed penny! we loved Dursey Island and it's inhabitants. friendly people, peacuful nature. great placento be

Die Unterkunft war ein echter Glücksgriff. Absolut ruhig gelegen, mit einem fantastischen Blick am Morgen aus dem Schlafzimmer. Einem sehr gemütlichen und ausreichend großen Wohn- Esszimmer mit Kaminofen, für den es Holz gab. Einer UNGLAUBLICH gut ausgestatteten Küche (für ein Airbnb) mit einem Gasherd, inklusive Kochfeld für einen Wok, auch ein Wok war vorhanden. Und noch etwas, was die Pflege und Sorgfalt des Gastgebers widerspiegelt: es gab scharfe Messer! Man kann sich dort rundum wohl fühlen und ein paar nette Tage verbringen. Die Küstenlinie und der nächste Pub sind fußläufig. Der Parkplatz war kostenlos und der Check -in unkompliziert und herzlich. Merci beaucoup 😉

A lovely peaceful part of the world. A quiet retreat surrounded by nature to unplug and switch off. John was a great host and very easy to communicate with.
