Holiday rentals with outdoor seating in River Shannon

We loved staying at Ocean Crest - the property was beautiful! Ocean and sunset views from the living area. A short and picturesque walk to the village, but far enough away that it was quiet and peaceful even during the busy Folk Festival. It was a serene retreat and we would love to come back someday!

Toms place was beautiful the area was peaceful and a perfect location for what we needed.

Thank you Katrina for a wonderful weekend in your beautiful home! Everything went smoothly, the house is bursting with character and Katrina has done a brilliant job creating unique spaces in each room! Katrina was excellent to communicate with - clear, responsive and helpful! Just a few minutes down the road to the lovely village of adare with gorgeous cafes and restaurants!

Absolutely loved the house. Everything was spotless and the house is amazing and so comfortable. The location was beautiful

You don’t want to pass up this little gem if you’re looking for serenity with a gorgeous view of Lough Derg and the Irish countryside. The home was spacious and accommodating, with everything we needed. We enjoyed playing some games provided by the host, as well as the fun billiards table. My only complaint is we couldn’t stay longer due to our schedule. Would definitely book again. Thanks.

Órla's cabin on the outskirts of the village is a little gem. Beautiful views of the inlet. Nice, covered veranda to take in the scenery. The kitchen is fully equipped with pots, pans and utensils. Electric shower, plenty of hot water and strong flow. Bedroom is spacious with lots of storage. Bed itslef is very comfortable. WiFi is solid. TV in the living room has HDMI if you want to cast/firestick/roku. We really enjoyed the array of books, ranging from fact, local lore, easy fiction,kids, culinary, sci-fi etc. Órla left very clear instructions as to access, wifi, local amenities etc Ideal space if you're looking to explore the island and come back to a cosy, secluded haven.

What an absolutely beautiful stay! The house is beautiful and on so much stunning land. John personally came down and gave us a little map with all the paths we could walk on the land which was so helpful. It was a good HQ point as we went on a lot of day trips and I could not recommend this cottage more! Can’t wait to come back!

Helen and Ronan are everything you could hope for in hosts—exceptionally communicative, helpful, and incredibly accommodating. The personal touches and thoughtful local recommendations made a world of difference. We dined at Fawn, a nearby restaurant they suggested, and the food was absolutely divine. I even got to meet the local horse on arrival, which added a charming touch to the experience. If I’m ever in the area again, I’d return in a heartbeat. Thank you so much for such a wonderful stay!

Jim's place was everything we hoped for. Jim is such a kind, friendly man who makes you feel so welcome. We loved browsing Jim's many collections & meeting all his animals. The outside seating area was a huge bonus & as the weather was so good, we could have happily spent our day there. We only had 2 nights at Jim's but really hope to come back sometime and spend longer there

We have been to many airbnbs over the years and Marie’s house has to be the best place we have ever stayed! The house is spotlessly clean and very well appointed. Beds were very comfortable, great water pressure in the rain head shower, washer and DRYER!! (unusual for Europe but so useful). Words cannot describe the beautiful, ever changing views of Clough Patrick and Clew Bay from the picture window in the living room. Marie met us on arrival (I love to meet the host) and left us milk, tea, coffee, eggs and even a fresh baked loaf of Irish bread. The area is quiet but very convenient to Westport town center (our son biked there in about 10 minutes and it’s about a 40 minute walk). Marie recommended several area restaurants which were excellent. There is so much to see and do in this area that 5 days was not enough time and we will have to return and will definitely be looking to stay here again. Thank you Marie.

Enjoyed our stay with Eileen. She made sure to welcome us and answered any questions. Beautiful location.

Ray and Aisling were wonderful hosts. The cottage was not only beautifully furnished but also spotlessly clean. It had everything we needed, and the kitchen was very well equipped. For us, the location was perfect - quiet and in less than 10 minutes to Arhenry, with supermarkets and restaurants close by. Highly recommended!

We had a fabulous few days staying at The Stables. Breda and Joe have a lovely country property. We love the goodie left for us from Breda. Scones and bread both home made. The cottage is so well equipped with most things you’d need to get by but a Centra only a few minutes away has lots of options. The bed was so comfortable as were the pillows and the fluffiest feather doona. The cottage is heated but we felt we didn’t need heating on as it’s very warm inside anyway but great if it turns cold. A bonus is the washer and dryer, we’d not been able to wash for several day so felt like all home comforts were covered. We loved the kitchen and dining area, great for preparing our meals. Breda has a vegetable and herb garden which she was happy for us to use, I made good use of salad stuff and herb. We got to meet Joe who was brings the horses back into the sheds, we got to see an 8 day old foal, such a highlight for me coming from Australia’s beach scene. We highly this place Fiona

Our stay at the pod was everything we hoped it would be as a family traveling with a 4-year-old. The pod was cute and comfortable. The location is wonderful for getting to Cliffs of Moher and Lahinch Beach. Restaurants were close by too and we did take out one of the two nights we stayed there so we could take advantage of the surroundings with the picnic table. From the picnic table, we saw horses, sheep and tractors from afar. The hosts were friendly and very helpful. Would definitely recommend as a unique way to experience the area!

Apart from wonders of the cliffs and Gus O’Connors pub music just up the road, Ann’s apartment was outstanding. Everything reflects careful planning and quality. All wood-bedroom flooring, kitchen cupboards and doors (real wood) table legs and mirror frames- are all stained the same colour. Kitchen splash back, bench and shelving in the bathroom are all the same stone. Kitchen appliances all stainless steel. The numerous power points (2 each side of the bed) are waist height and thus accessible. The bed and linen rate in the luxurious category. Even the toilet flushing mechanism is superior to anything I’ve seen. A quality build and a quality AirBnB experience. Highly rated.

We had an amazing Experience and most importantly we climbed Croagh Patrick!!!! Best location to explore the beautiful beaches in westport.

Wonderful stay, huge bedroom with extremely comfortable linens and great mattress…even an electric blanket (we didn’t bed it). Helen had left us some basic groceries to make our stay start off easy. We were also able to pick fresh herbs and lettuce from the garden…what a bonus! Great friendly host with a lovely apartment, love to stay again.

Marianne was proactive in offering advice prior to our arrival. She offered an easy and flexible check-in. Her home is lovely & close to all amenities on the grounds of Mount Juliet. We had a great stay!

Had the best few nights here. Maria was so lovely and welcoming. The views were amazing and the place was spotless. We loved feeding the ducks and playing with the puppy. Can’t wait to come back

Mary was so lovely and welcoming. She was easily contactable and so warm and friendly. We were keen to have a bit of privacy and she left us to our own devices to enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The location of the apartment is really spectacular. Sitting in the hot tub looking out on the lake was a real highlight of the trip.

Lovely and peaceful location

Staying with Carmel is OG Airbnb, where there is actually a local host not an off-site corporation who owns the property you’re staying in. Carmel was wonderful and so welcoming. I was traveling alone and I really appreciate when it feels like I could reach out to the host if I have trouble without being a bother. The place itself is spectacular. They also have an actually stocked kitchen with more than just salt and pepper, which is soooo grand because you don’t have to spend money on an entire bottle of oil or butter or jam for a couple of quick meals. I hope to go back one day!

We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful rural getaway. The setting is so peaceful and relaxing—surrounded by open countryside, stunning vistas, and that kind of deep quiet you only find in nature. It was the perfect place to slow down and switch off. The room was super comfortable, with everything we needed, and there were some lovely thoughtful touches—like staples in the cupboard and fridge, which made us feel really looked after. The friendly dogs were a highlight—so sweet and full of personality! It really felt like being part of the place. We even got to share a glass of wine with the owners one evening, which made the stay feel all the more welcoming and personal. We only stayed one night and really wished we’d booked two. It’s the kind of place you want to linger in. We’ll definitely be back when we can. If you’re looking for a peaceful, scenic retreat with a warm, down-to-earth vibe—this is it.

Sineads apartment was LOVELY!! It’s a perfect location, 15 minute cycle to town & 5 minutes to the beach. There’s a little trailer cafe called Minnie’s cafe only a 15 minute walk away too (great rhubarb crumble.) Her place was so clean and had everything we needed, she even left us milk, jam, butter, coffee & a freshly baked Irish soda bread. The bed was VERY comfy, we had some peaceful sleeps. There’s chairs & a table out front which was lovely to watch the sunset from. I highly recommend this apartment, great weekend getaway for couples. We will be coming next year.
