Family-friendly vacation rentals in Kinsale

Gorgeous place in a nice, quiet area in west Cork. If you want a place to stay away from the hustle and bustle, but close enough to see so many things, Pat’s place is it! It is quaint and cozy and disconnected! Don’t plan on doing a lot of screen time (internet connectivity is not the best), but that is the beauty of this stay! Beds comfortable and the best sun porch for breakfast or an afternoon nap! Will stay here again!

Johanne's place is beautiful, clean and in a great location. It's a short walk from the train station, a short walk to the main streets and just around the corner from a pub.

Our stay was fantastic! Our hosts were very friendly and easy going! We were able to take our little ones and watch the cows being milked and taken out to the fields. The area is very peaceful, and a perfect place to star gaze. This is a great central location to be able to explore the many areas in southwest Ireland!

We arrived to a welcoming fire and Margie was extremely helpful and accommodating to our requests. The area was beautiful and we look forward to returning in the future! Mark & Eileen

We enjoyed our stay at Kathy's as a family of 6. It was a fab location 8 minute drive outside the town. We used a taxi once and it was €14, taxis were always available on the street and by using the freenow app. Kathys accommodation was spotlessly clean, great wifi, easy check in. Everything was amazing and the house is huge. Thanks for a great stay Kathy. We will definitely be back.

Ann's place is about a 15 min drive from the centre of Cork so not in the city centre. The area surrounding the property is lovely and peaceful so it gives you the quiter side of Cork. Which is what we enjoyed as we had visited Cork City centre before.

We were visiting Dingle and we had a wonderful stay at this 4-bedroom house! The host was incredibly kind and responsive, making check-in and communication smooth from start to finish. The home itself was spacious, clean, and perfect for our family — very child-friendly with plenty of room for everyone to relax. The kitchen was well-equipped and made cooking meals easy and enjoyable. Highly recommend this place for families or groups looking for a comfortable and welcoming stay!

We had a great stay at Carmen’s property. We had 2 young children and 4 adults. Everyone enjoyed their time. The listing is exactly as described and very comfortable. Carmen’s communication was very prompt. We hope to stay here again soon.

Kathleen’s house was in the perfect location…quiet, but a quick 5 minute drive to the city centre. Close to many restaurants, shops and pubs. Made our stay in Killarney so much better!

A lovely home, we were happy to be able to stay. Martin and family are very easy going and very pleasant.

We had a great time at Dominic's place. We chose this lodge because of its geographical location and it was perfect for traveling around. Our arrival went very well, the directions were very clear and on our arrival Dominic had even lit a fire for us. He had kindly left us things to eat (cereals, milk, butter, bread etc.). The interior of the lodge is even better than in the photos, the two bathrooms are very practical and the bedrooms nicely redecorated. The bedding is excellent and we were able to rest well. The lodge is peaceful and located near a local pub that also serves as a restaurant. We were able to go there for dinner or listen to Irish music. Dominic gave us some great tips for sightseeing, was full of thoughtful touches and made sure we had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. I recommend going without hesitation.

A lovely cottage for a relaxing holiday, it was clean, cosy and quiet and we found everything we needed. Shops and activities were just a few minutes away. Julie is a lovely host and gave us a warm welcome 🥰 everything was just perfect.

Angela, was a great host and was very proactive and kind. The house was wonderful and my whole family enjoyed their stay. We recommend this location to anyone looking for a wonderful place to stay in cork .

The house of Alva is in a very quiet neighborhood and close to the city center. Kenmarre is in a great location to discover the Ring of Beara and Kerry. It's so close to Killarney and its national park. I recommend it.

We had a great time staying in the thatched cottage. It was so cosy and it had everything we needed for a comfortable stay for over a week. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals. The garden is lovely and was the perfect place to enjoy the nice weather and for the dog to run around. It is in a great location for exploring Kerry, making day trips to Dingle and the Ring of Kerry very easy. There are a few nearby restaurants that have very nice food. Overall, I would definitely recommend a stay in the thatched cottage.

We stayed at the barn for Christmas and we arrived to the most incredible scene: a beautiful 9ft tree, a roaring fire and classical music playing. It really set the tone for our stay which was cosy and magical. If you do stay over Christmas then we'd recommend joining the locals for a Christmas morning sea swim at Inch Beach, just along the coast. The barn has everything you need for a stay of any length, and is situated far enough away that it feels remote while being only 20 minutes from Midleton and 40 from Cork. The interior design is stunning and the sofa is incredibly comfortable. The kitchen is well-appointed and the shower is great. Kenneth is available but very respectful of your privacy. The fire heats the barn but there's central heating should you need it. We couldn't recommend this place highly enough for a refined stay in the Irish countryside.

Short stay at the accommodation We are very good there, it is spacious, the environment is quiet and ideal for a family with children Marcella is very thoughtful and has very good recommendations!

Beautiful setting, got to watch the sunset over velvet hills on the balcony.

How blissful to lay star gazing in the jacuzzi after a long drive. And that bed-my partner was convinced the duvet was a cloud! We knew we were immersed in the countryside when we woke to birdsong & the cows in the field next door lowing! There's so much on offer in the locality - we had to prise ourselves away- very tempting to stay in one of the many sunny, comfortable spots (indoors or out). Our hosts afforded us privacy and were also only a phonecall or a knock away. As for creature comforts, there was plenty of hot water and we appreciated the availability of environmentally friendly soap and detergents and efficient recycling and composting facilities. As we had pre planned activities, we were unable to avail of renowned chef Chris' very tempting menu...next time!.

We loved it! It was in an amazing location, quite close to Killarney town and the house itself was amazing and spacious. To top it off John was great to deal with

Heidi and Des’s place was fantastic. Very spacious house, in a lovely, rural setting. The house was spotless, with plenty of fresh towels and toiletries. The hot tub was lovely, super relaxing and very clean. Heidi and Des were very helpful and responsive in all communication. The price was very reasonable. Would definitely stay here again.

A dream location, at the edge of the water, in the middle of nature for this small eco-friendly campsite. The change of scenery is total. The atmosphere is very friendly and simple, thanks in particular to the facilities (large common room, outdoor kitchen... ) and amenities (dishes, stoves, cutlery...). The children are in paradise and the accommodations on offer are varied to suit every need. The village of Goleen is ready and offers different services (convenience store, cafe, pub, beer garden, tourist office...)

My family and I had a wonderful stay over Xmas. The house is perfect for large parties. We were easily able to accommodate 7 adults and one toddler and would have been comfortable with more people. The property is great for family dinners and lounging around the tv. It is also an easy walk to the downtown. Highly recommend.

Magical views can hardly do justice to the setting of this house. The expansive view over the sea to distant hills is quite exquisite, the peace and silence go deep inside you. We spent many hours just sitting outside in the lovely garden drinking it all in. The house itself is a delight – full of artistic touches created from nature by the owner Birgit. Spotlessly clean with lots of comfortable beds. The upstairs bedroom in the extension has a huge window with panoramic views out over the bay and below it is a large yoga room with lovely views for any activity you choose – the bi-fold doors open out onto a large terrace. Birgit has clearly thought of everything you might need – from organic hand soaps in each of the three bathrooms to an extraordinarily well-equipped cook’s kitchen, including herbs and spices and teas. As if all this wasn’t enough, there is also an outdoor wooden sauna in the garden and a stream-fed natural pond that you can plunge into after the sauna – bliss!
