What a lovely home, nestled far away to get some peace but close enough to great restaurants and attractions. A lovely space for a group or family to enjoy time in the Irish countryside.

200yr 4 Star Cottage on 450 acres

AliceRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We absolutely LOVED this little cottage and everything around it! It is extremely peaceful and quiet. Surroundings are beautiful! Being able to walk all over the property on the trails and to visit the lake just made it even better. Everything was exactly as described. John is very responsive and even came by to show us how some things work and just for casual conversation, which was extremely nice! He gave us the history on the lands and recommended places to visit and eat. He was just so nice! We will definitely be back!

Absolutely gorgeous house and grounds, like something from a postcard. Everything you could need was in the house. House is bright and spotlessly clean. Great location. Handy adventure centre in the hotel a five minute walk from the house. Margaret is a fantastic host who made sure we had a great trip. Thank you Margaret. The Mancunian girls will come again!

The Red Glen Lodge - The Burren

StephanieRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had such a lovely stay at Shirley’s lodge! The cottage was absolutely charming—cozy, clean, and full of character. The views were breathtaking and made our time in Ireland feel even more magical. Shirley was the sweetest host, and the fresh bread she made for us was such a thoughtful (and delicious!) touch. She was incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made us feel right at home. Highly recommend staying here if you're looking for a peaceful and authentic Irish countryside experience. Thank you, Shirley!

Knockbroughaun Restored Stone Farm Cottage

JuditRating, 5 stars1 week ago
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.
