Family-friendly holiday rentals in Waterford

A great stay. The house was really spacious and very well decorated. There was lots of lovely touches such as some food in the fridge. The house was sparkling clean and Damien and Emma were great hosts. They responded to messages quickly and were very helpful! I’d highly recommend a stay here!

Delighted to have found this lovely, peaceful home. Beautifully presented with spacious, comfortable bedrooms. 2 ensuites and a family bathroom. Stunning location overlooking the river. Great outdoor space. Easy walking distance to town, shops, hotel and restaurants etc. Plenty to do including boat tours, paddle boarding and scenic walks. Really enjoyed exploring the towns and the surrounding area. Our adult family of five spent 5 days relaxing and exploring and could easily have spent longer.

A really great house for a family holiday, super private and the garden was a massive bonus. Lots of space in the living spaces and bedrooms. Great location for beaches etc

We had an absolutely wonderful 2 nights in Caroline's place. The surroundings were idyllic, the place itself was clean and tidy and its one of the most comfortable bed we've slept in! The location is in the beautiful countryside and only 5 mins from Thomastown by car - Caroline arranged a taxi for us to the train station one on day so that we could go to Kilkenny for the day, which is only 15 mins by train. Caroline herself was super responsive and so friendly, she had the hot tub heated and ready for us on both evenings which was above and beyond! Arthur was part of the welcoming committee and a bundle of fun! Would 100% recommend!

A beautiful home in a wonderful place. So quiet and peaceful, the only sounds are the sheep and cows in the distance. Close to the beach and a perfect little town. The house had everything we needed and the surrounding area is the definition of a place to relax - with maybe the exception of the narrow roads in the area and a novice LH driver..:)

This is our second visit to Weavers Cottage.. The cottage is light, airy and warm. The furnishing and fixing are all of a high standard. The cottage has every amenity you could need. It is 5 minutes from the centre of the village and the river. There are many beautiful walks from the village and nearby. Mary is a warm and welcoming host. She kindly leave basic provision to see you through your first night at the cottage. When I suffered toothache she helped us find a local emergency dentist. I cannot praise Mary or her cottage enough.

Great place to stay for the night!

What a wonderful place! The property is full of character and charm – you can really feel the personality of the space. The outdoor area is absolutely amazing, and the play facilities were so much fun! The host was very welcoming and friendly, and always responded quickly to any messages. It was a truly enjoyable and memorable stay. Highly recommended!

We had a lovely few days at the cottage. It was the perfect base for seeing local attractions and further afield. Patrick and Mary were really helpful in highlighting places to visit and eat. Goldie the dog was also friendly and loved a belly rub. The cottage was well equipped and comfortable and had fabulous views of the Galtees.

Staying at the Granary was idyllic! It was truly magical to stay in such a beautiful stone cottage surrounded by lovely farmland, gardens, and trees. Sanchia was a superb host, responsive and friendly, and their dogs, cat, and ducks were also delightful company! We really enjoyed sitting out on the deck and marveling at the view and we were able to easily visit Glendalough for a phenomenal hike. The scones, tea, coffee (including espresso with a moka pot!), and other cooking essentials were greatly appreciated. And I even got to exchange a book from their shelf, so if you see “The Last Murder at The End of The World” feel free to carry it on! Would very happily return!

This is such a special place, a beautiful spot and Anna and Jim were very welcoming and accommodating. The cottage was very comfortable and it was lovely to be able to enjoy the garden and help ourselves to chives and other herbs. Their tour of the tower was completely fascinating. A real treat.

Ruth's place is beautifully situated above Bannow Bay and near to shops in Wellingtonbridge. The space is very comfortable and cosy. Ruth and her family made us feel very welcome.

Lovely hotel with beautiful views, garden, bar and restaurant. Landscaping work being done near the bottom of the hotel was a minor inconvenience with noise but the quality of the rooms and hotel makes up for it. It’s a solid walk to the MacCurtain precinct but fine if you’re able bodied. We’d stay here again as I’m sure the work is only temporary.

We had a beautiful holiday here in the coach house of Kilmokea Country Manor. The coach house is fantastic, full of character and the bedrooms are large and airy with views of peacocks from the windows. The setting is quiet and peaceful and the wild and bountiful gardens are just magnificent to wander through in awe. There is a great tennis court and beautiful swimming pool framed with French Doors and ample changing areas. Emma and Mark were absolutely superb hosts. They are warm, friendly, accommodating and a pleasure to meet around the place. My only tiny note is that I would have liked a list of extra charges in advance - just so I had more awareness of costs I was incurring as I went along. The jacuzzi is extra, as is the sauna, and there is a daily charge for utilities. I am sure this is all in the provided info knowing these careful hosts but I somehow missed these details. Anyway nothing could possibly detract from what is an absolute hidden paradise. Book immediately !!

Michelle was so accommodating and kind. We booked the same day of arrival and Michelle went out of her way to go to and clean and sort out the place before our arrival. The home is perfect for families and pets. The estate’s amenities are great, and we enjoyed tea and scones in the club house as well as use of the leisure centre.
