Farmstay vacation rentals in County Galway

Marian and Martin were absolutely delightful! They made us feel welcome and honored from the start. They enjoyed getting to know us but also gave us the time to enjoy our vacation. It was the perfect mix! Heidi (the dog) was brilliant! we all wished we could take her home!!!! What a precious addition to our vacation she was!!! HIGHLY recommend this home!!! Beautiful and all that you need for a peaceful fairy tale vacation!!!

Lovely stay in an absolutely gorgeous location. The apartment had a real cottage feel to it and came equipped with everything you would need for your stay. Terry was extremely friendly and the whole experience was really special! Would definitely recommend to friends or return here myself.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautifully renovated barn just outside Galway! The space was charming, well-equipped, and full of character—exactly what you’d hope for in a countryside retreat. Lucy was an incredible host and even greeted us with freshly baked bread, which was such a thoughtful and delicious touch. One rainy evening, we curled up by the cozy fire which was a great way to end the day. It was the perfect mix of rustic charm and modern comfort. The location was ideal—peaceful and secluded, yet less than 20 minutes from the heart of Galway. We spent a day exploring the city, and another hiking in the Burren and the Aran Islands, both easily accessible from the property. This place truly felt like a hidden gem, and we’d return in a heartbeat

Had a lovely stay, the grounds of the place were gorgeous and we really enjoyed taking in all the scenery. Karen was an attentive host and we had no problems checking in early and getting to the place.

My favorite Airbnb on our Ireland trip! Our stay at Pat Mors Cottage was the perfect peaceful retreat in the countryside. The cottage is full of charm, cozy, and beautifully maintained, with stunning views right outside the door. William was a great host! We arrived pretty late but check-in was extremely easy and William even stopped by the next morning to make sure everything went smoothly for us. We loved getting visits from our neighbors (the sheep and cows 😊) and enjoyed taking the small hike up the hill in the backyard for an amazing view of the surrounding lakes and mountains. We can’t wait to return—this place is a true gem!

The place is just perfect, great nature, lovely hosts and quiet as it can be. We really enjoyed our stay.

Pat has given us the warmest welcome we have ever got at an airbnb. He is just a terrific host. The cottage is lovely, spacious and well-equipped. Great to have 2 bathrooms. The kitchen has everything you need to cook a meal. We loved the fire in the dining room and living room and enjoyed playing boardgames with the fire on, on a rainy day. Pat's dog, Lily and the neighbour dog, Hunter are both a delight. Connemara is a beautiful part of Ireland with beautiful scenery and wonderfully warm people. A week is not enough to see everything. We managed to get to the national park, Clifden, Roundstone and its beaches, Lennaun, the Killary fjord and the famine walk, as well as nearby Loch Corrib and the castle. Some of these destinations are about 1 hour away but you drive through beautiful scenery. Galway is only half an hour away and is a buzzing, vibrant city. All in all, we had a great time and would like to come back.

what a wonderful place to stay. Very comfortable, we had everything we needed. Gwen was really helpful with everything. We would recommend to anyone needing a beautiful place to stay

We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage very comfortable, clean, warm and well presented and communication was excellent.

We had such a lovely stay here! The location is lovely and the house is tucked away so feels very private. The beds were very comfortable me and the house was nicely laid out and well stocked. Aoife was very responsive and helpful and it was great to be met by a real person (Margaret) to let us in and show us around. All in all it was a fab weekend and we thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would love to return again.

Suzanne’s place was lovely. Peaceful with a beautiful view out the back window of the farmlands and the sea in the distance. Her place is about a 20 minute walk from the Cliffs of Moher Walking Trail which is stunning, and less than a 10 minute drive into Doolin for the ferries to the Aran Islands. A great location overall. I will say that this is a working farm and that comes with farm sounds (cows mooing) and faint farm smells. We found it lovely but I know that’s not everyone’s cup of tea. Overall 10/10 would recommend!

Stunning house with the most amazing views. Bernie and her husband were so helpful and kind. Peaceful location close to a pristine beach. The kids loved all the sheep and horses in the nearby fields. Thank you to Bernie for a lovely relaxing week

Pinehurst Suite was a gem find! It was the perfect accommodations to begin our vacation in Ireland. I only wish we had more time to stay. Fiona is a sweet and thoughtful host, going above and beyond to provide all of the amenities you could ever need, and then some! The bed was very comfortable. The room and bathroom are spotlessly clean. Don’t hesitate. If Pinehurst Suite is available for the dates you’ll be visiting Galway, book immediately and without hesitation!

Anne’s house was one of our very favorites! So warm and spacious, squeaky clean, well stocked with everything you could possibly need without being cluttered. The photos make the house look a little dark, it isn’t at all- it is light with a cozy feel and nice, comfortable furniture. We thought we could stay forever comfortably enjoying the amazing views. The house is very quiet even in a storm and although we loved seeing the sheep just outside we couldn’t hear them, so very peaceful. The beds were comfortable, plenty of hot water, good flushing toilets, everything was great. Anne made us feel right at home and so welcome. She was so thoughtful and kind, we couldn’t say enough. The walk toward Mount Gable was beautiful and a wonderful recommendation. We would gladly stay here again.

Everything was great!

Loved the location. Easy access. Had everything we needed.

Paradise on earth!!! What an amazing find this was! The cottage felt like living in a movie, it was so peaceful and charming! It was also spotlessly clean and very comfortable! Marshall was so kind and friendly and made us feel right at home! The grounds are absolutely breath taking and the location was great for local eats and only 20 minutes from Galway. Cannot recommend this AIRBNB enough!

This was one of my favorite Air BnB stays ever - gorgeous property and surroundings, comfortable space (especially the beds and towels), and John & Maura were so kind and helpful. I truly can’t say enough about how lovely this place is! And perfect distance to downtown Galway and many, MANY other hidden gems to discover.

Carola was great in all the communication. The house was perfect for our family with 5 children of different ages. Toys and books and enough spaces for each to chill. Lovely outside space and inside all available that you may need. Would certainly come back

Location was out of this world. We were very lucky with the weather too. It was one to remember.

We had a great new years stay in Lizzie’s. The place was very clean and cosy and we made great use of the lovely open fire place. The setting is absolutely stunning with beautiful sea views out the back and gorgeous views from the bedrooms upstairs. The kitchen was well stocked for a big group and plenty of seating areas and chairs for all. Would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for a lovely countryside stay away from the madness!

Super nice private house with pure nature. The car is a must, but you can easily get to a full-day parking lot near the university and from there directly by bus to the city, so it's great. 😉 Super easy to plan with day trips to Connemara or the Cliffs of Moher. Karina's house is super clean and well maintained and really has it all. We felt very comfortable. ☺️

We were looking for a comfortable place to relax for the last part of our visit to Ireland. A beautiful cottage in the countryside for a bit of rest while also providing plenty of things to do in the surrounding area. Fiona and Sean were wonderful hosts. Carol & Joe

Rhona is really kind. She is very nice and very helpful. The house is great, clean, quiet. We appreciated everything. If we go back to Ireland, we will probably go back there.
