The Cosy Cabin - East Ferry - Cork
Arti’s cabin exceeded our expectations. It was exactly what we were looking for on this trip. Great host, beautiful view and a cozy home base for exploring this area. Would love to return if/when possible.

Waterside, King size Bed, Eateries/Pub 3 min walk
Very nice home with a short walk to local restaurants and store. Kennans and the purple onion were our go to eating places after our days out touring. Both very good. We liked the location for walking by the river and watching the world go by. Nice to sit out the front in the Sun in the morning with a coffee. It’s not secluded but it is still very quiet.

Dunmore House - Cottage by secluded beach
This was our 3rd time at Paivi's place and we can't wait to return. It truly is a magical place. There wasn't a cloud in the sky the whole time we were there and it honestly felt like paradise. Paivi is an excellent host. Couldn't rate this place high enough. We didn't want to leave 😀

Blue Flag Cottage Fintra Bay
House was great clean tidy with short pad on to beach which was top class for young children would go back

The Sea Horse Snug
The place was fabulous, views from the veranda were breathtaking. The accommodation was spotlessly clean and the bed was extremely comfortable. Would recommend this to any visitors and you would not be disappointed. We will be back. Thank you.

Red Island House, on the shore of Lough Mask
Eine traumhafte Lage mit Ausblick in jede Himmelsrichtung, jeweils ganz besonders und dadurch nie langweilig. Ein guter Startpunkt für etliche (Wander-) Touren. Auch hierzu Tipps erhalten. Sonne (wenn Sie denn scheint) von morgens bis abends am bzw im Haus. Wir haben bereits nach wenigen Tagen entschieden, dass wir nächstes Jahr wieder kommen wollen. Zum erholen genießen und abschalten eine der besten Unterkünfte die ich kenne. Und keine Angst vor der Zufahrt, ist wirklich absolut machbar und fordert weder ein besonderes Auto noch einen besonderen Fahrer.

Atlantic Apartment Connemara
un petit coin de paradis, tout simplement. le logement d'Anna est d'une propreté exemplaire, il est super bien équipé, four, micro-onde, plaques électriques, machine à laver, lave-linge. lit très confortable. et puis la vue.... sur des prairies avec des moutons et l'océan derrière. la fenêtre ouverte avec le bêlement et le bruit des vagues, c'est juste le paradis. l'emplacement est vraiment chouette pour visiter le Connemara. petite balade a proximité immédiate pour aller voir le coucher de soleil sur les falaises. on nous a déjà réclamé l'adresse !

Benvoy House apartment
The place was fantastic, Paul was there to great us and gave recommendations of when to visit the beaches, fabulous host. We had a lovely time, the place was well kitted out, with tea, coffee milk, cereals and eggs. Also he made his own tea light holders which made the place special. I could quite happily have stayed longer. The walk to the beach was literally three minutes we had dogs so they sniffed everything. unique place to stay well worth a visit.♥️

Beautiful sea-view, country cottage feel townhouse
Norita’s home is a lovely home and fit U.S. perfectly! The beds were comfy and the kitchen well stocked. The addition of the sheep’s and chickens added to the tranquil setting. The welcome gifts from the “girls in the garden” were delightful! She even made dinner reservations at the Smugglers Creek Restaurant (fabulous location and exceptional food) and arranged a taxi pick for us. A++++

Seashell, beach edge cottage
We had a lovely stay! Jenny was so responsive. Very cosy, right by the sea, and easy to get to from Dublin! We’ll definitely be back!

Traditional cottage by the sea
We had the absolute pleasure of spending two nights in the most adorable little cottage by the coast, and it was everything we hoped for and more. The cottage itself was incredibly homely and comfortable—perfect for a peaceful getaway. One of our favourite features was the beautiful fire stove where we burned turf. The scent of the turf filled the space and added such a cosy, authentic touch to the experience. The location is lovely and quiet—a truly ideal spot to unwind, reset, and just enjoy the simple beauty of the surroundings. What made our stay even more special were our hosts, John and Martina. They are the nicest couple you could ever meet. From the moment we arrived, they were so welcoming, friendly, and kind. We had such lovely chats with them and genuinely felt like we’d known them for years. Wonderful hosts, a perfect cottage, and a peaceful setting—we’re already looking forward to our next visit!

Droumkeal Cottage Ballylickey Bantry Co Cork
As the pictures tell, this is a charming cottage in the country. Loved to visit with the cows behind us! We all agreed it felt like our grandmothers home, comfortable and welcoming. Not too far away from civilization Irish style. The sun room on a blustery rainy day was awesome. We were very happy and felt very safe! Emily was lovely! Very thankful we chose this cottage.

Artistic Cottage Retreat Connemara - An Muileann
Our favorite place on the whole trip. Absolutely enchanting setting in a stunningly beautiful area. Michael and his family were the best of hosts, welcoming and responsive. If you’re looking for the beautiful soul of Conamarra, this is your place.

Stunning beach house just off Wild Atlantic Way
We had a wonderful stay at Susan’s beautiful home — it had everything we needed. Each evening, we loved taking in the spectacular ocean views from the panorama window. The house is just a few steps from the beach, with plenty of lovely walks to explore in the surrounding area. Within a short 10-minute drive, you’ll find yourself in the village, where there are charming restaurants, supermarkets, and EV chargers. It’s a perfect base for enjoying both nature and local amenities.

First floor, new beautiful apartment
I will be recommending them to friends and family. Such a great place

Cosy apartment in The Burren, Co Clare. Sleeps 2
Wir haben uns in der geschmackvoll eingerichteten Wohnung von Róisín sehr wohlgefühlt und hatten einen wunderschönen Urlaub. Die Wohnung liegt ländlich ruhig und hat einen kurzen Weg zum Strand. Sie ist perfekt für Ausflüge in die Umgebung des Burren-Nationalparks und weiterer spektakulärer Punkte an der Küste, für Wanderer besonders empfehlenswert (ein Auto ist notwendig). Unsere Gastgeberin stand uns jederzeit mit Rat und Tat zur Seite und hatte viele gute Tipps auf Lager. Herzlichen Dank, Beate und Ulrich

Luxurious Beach House
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.

Luxe Waterfront 4 Bedroom Villa
We had a wonderful stay at Robert’s place. Perfect for our family of 6 adults looking for a peaceful escape from the cities. Enjoyed the walking trails in the back and the house is absolutely beautiful with a great view. Easy to get to surrounding areas for day trips. Robert was extremely welcoming and responsive. Would recommend to anyone traveling to Ireland!

Closest House to the Sea in Ireland
Absolutely stunning property. So many high quality little design elements bringing out the nautical theme ⚓️ felt like I was on a boat at sea :)) The big window onto the ocean is a trip. Could have stared out at the waves all day. Will be back

The Herons Rest Townhouse 16 - Sea views
Well, what can I say that hasn’t been said by other guests - this is an outstanding rental and Sorcha was a terrific host. The accommodation was exactly as described and super clean. The welcome hamper of food was outstanding- local produce of the highest quality… just loved the granola especially! Everything is walkable from Sorcha’s place whether you’re heading to the pubs, to Eyre Square or in the opposite direction to Salthill; it’s all on your doorstep. The views from the house were fantastic- we watched the Galway hookers set sail and return, so elegant! All in all we’d a super stay and Sorcha was brilliant about communicating & checking that all was okay - so thoughtful. Oh yes, and the little guide she provides is great; we enjoyed some of the food recommendations (book where possible as Galway is super popular!). Great city, great accommodation, great stay.

GREYSTONES BESIDE the SEA.
A 3 generational family gathering was made even more special by the generous amenities and thoughtful details of this house, everything was there we could need. An amazing welcome package, a great book of information and recommendations, truly could have asked for more!

Whiting Stay
We had the absolute best time! The home and location was even more amazing than the photos depicted. We really enjoyed our stay and even extended it by a night!

Enniscrone Lighthouse Penthouse
What a fantastic spot. We were 4 golfers and we each had a lovely bedroom with comfortable beds. We could see the golf course from the apartment. All Pubs and restaurants could be waked to and the beach was across the road. Fantastic place and we will be back.

Rockfield Cottage
Loved staying at Fauve’s place, the cottage near Kinvara. Housed my wife and I, our two kids, and my parents. On a secluded coastal/marsh drive off Galway Bay, it’s peaceful and quiet. The house is just as beautiful as the photos. Fauve knows how to decorate - it’s like a showroom inside. Comfy beds, quiet surroundings, huge yard space for the kids to play. The Travellers Inn is just down the street to grab a pint! Don’t hesitate booking this place, it was awesome.
