Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Ireland

What can I say about Crow’s Hermitage that the other reviews haven’t already captured? If you’re considering other options—stop looking. You’ve found the perfect place. As many others have noted, the photos can’t possibly convey the enchantment that settles over you the moment you arrive. From the character of the home to the serene outdoor spaces to the thousand-year-old parish next door, it feels like stepping into the pages of a fairytale. When it comes to hosts, Colm is in a league of his own. He went above and beyond with directions, thoughtful recommendations, and any request we made. By the end of our stay, we didn’t just feel cared for—we felt like family.

Beautiful house with stunning views! Very clean & stocked with essentials. Host was easy to communicate with and replied quickly. We were given a courtesy late check out which was very much appreciated! Would definitely stay here again if we revisit the area. Do not hesitate to book this house.

House is beautiful and very comfortable! All the amenities we need and super clean. The view and surrounding scenery are amazing. We walked 3 1/2 miles to town on Sky road each morning and saw donkeys, Connemara ponies, jack rabbits and pheasants. Wonderful restaurants in town. Great hike up Diamond Hill in nearby National Park and swam in ocean at beautiful Dog’s beach. Amazing place for a relaxing and fun vacation!

I can't recommend Redmond and Sheila's place enough. It sits on the edge of the beautiful Galway Bay, and the daily view of the water, the quiet setting, and the delightful town of Spiddal is just a five-minute walk away. It feels like a welcoming family home with the intimacy and graciousness of a place well-loved and respected by its owners. A fully stocked kitchen, cozy setting, and furnishings, and comprehensive area recommendations from Redmond made this property so welcoming that we wanted to stay forever. Redmond was very responsive with all of our questions, and we felt like we were honored family friends coming to stay. It was one of our favorite Airbnb's of all time, and we would definitely stay here again!

Myself and some family stayed here for 1 night at short notice as we had a family funeral to attend nearby. Sinéad was amazing. She took our booking, provided the best breakfast pack i have ever had at an air b and b. She was responsive, kind and accommodating, offering us an early checkin to help with our travels So glad to have been able to stay here with my family. Th house and location is amazing. We have all agreed that we would love to return at another time when we can stay for longer and really appreciate and enjoy the house and area more. Looking forward to coming back Thank you Sinead

What a great time we had at this place! Host was helpful and kind made us feel at home.. Appreciate all the attention to detail and professionalism. I would recommend this place to everyone!

Had a lovely time, place was lovely, clean tidy, good spot, quiet, lovely scenery, secret walk to the lough, saw deer visiting the garden. Mo was a lovely host, greeted us when we arrived and said goodbye when we left. Provided delicious welcome cakes when on arrival, private garden, good food in restaurant 5 mins walk round the corner. Would love to go back there ❤️

Our stay at River Cottage felt less like checking into an Airbnb and more like stepping into Anna and Luke’s thoughtfully curated retreat. Nestled beside a usually gentle stream, the cottage offered a rare kind of quiet. We found ourselves unwinding in ways we hadn’t expected. As if the place itself were helping us silence the usual rush of thoughts. The sauna and cold plunge, discreetly positioned at the water’s edge, added a touch of simple luxury. They blended seamlessly into the natural surroundings rather than standing out as flashy extras, even when lit up at night. We explored the surrounding area by car and found Sligo to be the perfect complement to the cottage’s peaceful seclusion. My wife and I already feel drawn back to this little slice of Ireland - eager for another chance to recharge in the calm that Anna and Luke have created. We’re also looking forward to seeing their next ideas come to life.

Grahams place was lovely, beautiful surroundings. Very close to the town of Letterkenny only 10 min drive. Place was lovely very comfortable, hot tub was amazing great addition for the price your paying great deal . Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to come to Donegal

The only downside we would have liked to stay longer🤸‍♀️😊🐕🐕🐕

Only a short stay but a truly lovely experience. The unit was spacious, comfortable, quiet and beautifully presented. The generosity of the breakfast that was provided was amazing - and delicious! Highly recommend Jan and Sandy New Zealand

Wonderful, secluded location. Great to get away from the world, and enjoy the peace and quiet!! Adrian was an excellent host with great local recommendations for food! Highly recommend this location!!

Everything was fine, we really liked it.

What delightful hosts are Irene and David! Their home is fascinating and full of their family history and charm. The apartment was spacious and had everything we needed including a lovely view out of every window. Thanks for lovely unforgettable experience.

We opted to stay out of the bustle of Dublin for the peaceful vistas of Fethard and Selina ‘s AirBnB. So glad we did. Parking by the door. Phew! Well appointed kitchen/dining looking out onto lawn and flowered garden. Ample bedroom and closet space. Hot shower. An attentive host who, although called away for family health reasons, wrote a personalised card with important info for our arrival. She joined us later. A modern, comfortable AirBnB hosted by really nice people. This is a good one.

Thanks for having us at your humble abode. It was peaceful, clean and we were even greeted by a couple sheep at one point. Great spot for those looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

As soon as you walk through the bower into the front yard here, you know that this is going to be an extra special stay. Walking up onto the verandah the house has a warm and welcoming feel - and wine and chocolate! So many lovely thoughtful touches throughout - jugs of fresh flowers, a fabulous kitchen with well stocked pantry - fresh garlic and bay leaves and every utensil you could ever need to cook up a storm if you want! There are really nice toys, books and board games for kids and a library for grown ups. The very special thing is the natural pool adjacent, fed by a beautiful stream that spills over and continues its way down through the trees. Such a beautiful place with lovely art works and little treasures here and there - a home away from home. The hosts are friendly and helpful and leave you your privacy to enjoy this very special place. An experience not to be missed - best ever stay!

A lovely luxurious retreat in a secluded area with bird song as the soundtrack. The chalet is small but has everything you would need, and the jacuzzi was a delight after a day of hiking.

We had the most amazing stay here at high acres Lodge. From the moment we arrived we were greeted by David. Sam's dad. Such a warm welcome he gave us. The cabin was prestine. Everything we needed was there. The hot tub was amazing. Views of the mountains also. We were actually sad leaving the cabin after our 2 fantastic days away,also sad saying goodbye to David and Mary who waved us off. We will certainly be returning. ❤️

Great and Peaceful, The hot tub was great and bed was so comfy !! We will definitely be back. Was great to have peace and quiet and like a home from home vibe !

The Seashell Cabin was a great place with view and nearby beach. Scarlet gave great recommendations. We tried them all. She was responsive and helpful.

Host was very nice and always helpful, the villa was beautiful would definitely recommend for a couple on a nice getaway, I’ll definitely be going back again , the cabins themselves felt really cozy and just had a at home feel to them also the extra options for the jacuzzi and sauna were good really recommend, the Vila in general looks beautiful and very peaceful almost felt as if I wasn’t in Ireland and away in a tropical forest, the cabin was also super clean and very spacious over all I had a wonderful stay with my partner solid 5 stars

We spent a few wonderful days in the cottage of Nic&Ian. There is so much love and charm in this accommodation. Everything is there that you need and it was very clean. The bed is warm and comfortable. Great. The cottage is very idyllic in the forest and yet you can quickly get everywhere. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for peace in a special environment! There is a nice pub with good food 3 minutes away (on foot)
