Family-friendly holiday rentals in Connacht

The place was spotless and incredibly clean, making it feel comfortable and inviting. The attention to detail really stood out, and it was clear the host cares about providing a top-notch experience. The place exceeded my expectations in every way – it was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The host was welcoming and responsive, ensuring everything went smoothly from check-in to check-out. The location was perfect, and I truly felt at home during my stay. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great experience and would love to stay here again in the future!

Grace's house was a real treat! Nestled away in the trees overlooking the river made it feel so private and peaceful. The house itself was so cosy, clean and inviting but had plenty of space and different areas to relax. The grounds were amazing and the kids had a ball discovering the swings, hottub and reading shed. The whole place was magical and we were sad to leave. Grace was very responsive to any communication and made us feel so welcome. The house location was a great base for some of the stunning sights Donegal has to offer and we were very close to many beautiful sandy beaches. This house was the best airbnb we have ever stayed in! We can't wait to come back, thanks so much Grace

Felt so relaxed the minute we walked through the door. Everything was immaculate! It was the perfect staycation to unwind and we’ve come away feeling super refreshed. Hot tub has the most beautiful views too, We had a blast and so did our wee doggo! Thanks for everything, We will be back.. very soon!!

Gorgeous property, very clean and even bigger in person than in pictures. The sauna is lovely however we weren’t able to use the hot tub as it wouldn’t heat even after a strong fire and a few hours and we weren’t able running out of wood.

Great host. Quiet setting but nearest town Balliborough poor for evening restaurants. From description we thought kayak n paddle boards came with chalet - had to book but little available . Hot tub great . All in all we would highly recommended it .

We had a truly wonderful stay at this charming cottage. The location is absolutely perfect—peaceful, quiet, and surrounded by beautiful countryside. It was the ideal spot to relax and unwind, with nature right at our doorstep. The cottage itself was cozy, clean, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed. It felt like a real home away from home. Our host Mairead was fantastic— She made sure we had everything we needed and had the turf fire lit on our arrival. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience the beauty and tranquility of Donegal!

As advertised. We had a nice relaxing stay. If you’re looking to unplug for a weekend in a rural area , in a rustic cabin, this is for you. It is not a hotel but glamping but pictures were accurate. Communication was great but be aware no wi fi and cell service didn’t work for us. Hunter the dog guided us on a nice nature walk.

Everything was perfect, nice jacuzzi, very spacious house, everything what you need to stay included (pans, pots, cups..), very clean inside. One thing what wasn’t perfect was smell from cows farm which is very close to house (not whole day, just from time to time), if somebody don’t have a problem with that and like “country side vibes) I’ll say its 10/10 👍

The cottage is an amazing getaway, a good digital detox in lovely surroundings with Alpacas for company. Paul was the perfect host throughout. We travelled with our pet dog too. The cottage is very well finished with all conveniences. The nearest supermarket is 10mins drive and we cooked in the cottage both nights. We wanted the two nights as a nice relaxing break. We did some hillwalking in the Slieve Bloom Mountains nearby. Highly recommend for a relaxing break away

We had such a nice time staying at the cottage. It was so peaceful, right in nature. Daragh was very kind and gave us a lift to the shops which was really nice. The cottage was perfect and felt very homely.

It felt like being home in the Irish countryside. Rita's farmhouse had everything we needed for a long stay including some fresh eggs and other items to get started. It was an absolutely lovely place, and I hope to return!

Pat and Mary Angela are marvellous hosts. When we arrived the fires were lit, the table was set and there were gorgeous scones made by Mary Angela. They are both so friendly and gave lots of recommendations of places to visit. Their lovely cottage is perfectly situated for exploring Galway. It is definitely a home from home. My husband and I along with our 3 adult children and 2 Jack Russells had a great time there and we had everything we needed. We also loved Pat and Mary Angela's cafe and bookshop in Oughterard Village. Well worth a visit. Couldn't recommend this cottage highly enough!

great place to get away from it all, lovely patio to eat on when the sun shines. great area for walking. hope to get back again for longer

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!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Cosy Cottage. With the wood burner lit for our arrival, the cottage certainly lived up to its name. Cosy and very comfortable. We would definitely recommend a visit to the Beach Bar for drinks, food and the atmosphere. The Aughris coastal walk is worth doing. the views are stunning.

I stayed two nights with my partner and son in Rhona's beautiful cottage on the lake. The cottage is very clean, cosy and tastefully decorated. Rhona greeted us on arrival, which was very pleasant and made us feel welcome. The views outside are really breathtaking. It is right on the bank of a magnificient lake Corrib where my partner was lucky to catch a fish. There is a lovely forest walk right on the site, and a private boat pier. In the evenings we spent quality time playing board games and chess. Rhona was very helpfull to give us advice on what we can see around, and where to have some lovely food and there is plenty activities for everyones taste! I would really love to visit your place again in summer time and have a boat ride and a barbeque, Rhona. Thanks for your hospitality, we had an amazing few days!

my family and I had a great week at the Coach house, and the house was spacious and very well equipped and clean. the main attractions are outdoors! the lake at the bottom of the driveway! the beach, the private hot tub was amazing and so spacious. the games room was fab! everyone loved it, from the adults to the kids, hours of entertainment 😀 highly recommend 👌

Came to Ireland for a family vacation - 8 adults and a 1 year old. This was our third AirBnb on the trip and cannot say enough about how wonderful it was! So much history but with modern amenities. It was the best part of our trip. Went on many walks - over to the castle and to Harvey's Point stopping at the Famine Pot and seeing great views of the lake & farm animals along the way. Stayed three nights and used the pool/pond and sauna every day. The dining & living rooms were really spacious. We cooked all of our meals - the kitchen is a great set up with loads of dishes and anything you could need. The butcher in town had a great selection. Musical instruments were a huge bonus. It was quite warm for May so we didn't have a chance to have any fires - but the fireplaces would be wonderful for cool nights. There is also the 'wagon' which has a double bed, small kitchen and seating area and an adjacent full bathroom available. Rose was always a message away and super helpful. Loved it!

Marshall’s place is incredibly beautiful. It was the perfect place for three couple to stay. Marshall met us and gave us a quick tour of the place. She is super nice! Marshall’s place is an easy drive into Galway. I would highly recommend this place.

We had such an enjoyable stay for a family wedding nearby. There was loads of room in the house for our family. It was very comfortable, close to alot of local amenities and it was lovely to have use of the pool also. Check-in and out was simple and everyone we met was very helpful and welcoming.

The kids enjoyed the swimming pool and the donkeys! Great location for exploring the coast and beyond.
