Beachfront holiday rental in Ireland

We stayed as a family for a week and we loved staying in a mobile home. Our kids loved the novelty of it. It's very well equipped and Mary was a very responsive host. There's a tiny little rocky beach near the mobile. The boat to Beara is also nearby, you can walk to the pier. There's loads to do in the vicinity if the weather is nice. We loved the beach in Allihies, and also Dunboy woods which is just out of town. It's a bit out of town so you'd definitely need a car. There's a garage/spar about 3 km up the road, that's the closest shop. Castletownbere is about 5 mins away and has a Supervalu and lots of little shops and restaurants. We found two that we loved, Murphys and the Lobster place, both delicious and reasonable. Would go again!

The Nissen Hut is a fabulous little spot for a couples get away. Right on the water, it was a pleasure to sit out and admire the views from the comfort of its deck, or cosy inside the hut itself with the fire on. Evelyn was extremely communicative throughout our stay, with helpful local recommendations or just checking in that we were ok. The hut itself is beautiful, with everything you could need for a short stay. Comfortable bed, beautiful fire, lovely location what more could you ask for! We were blessed with the weather during our stay managing to take in the beautiful walk up to Portally Cove to watch the seals (you can join the walk from right outside the front door!) and then have a kayak in Rathmoylan Cove where my husband caught a huge seabass! Thanks again, and we will definitely be back!

This was our second annual week-long stay in Coolacloy. My only concern is whether I'll be able to reserve it for next year!

Idyllic location and accommodations!

We had a lovely and relaxing 3 night stay at Rosie's place. The space was perfect for our needs, is very well equipped and overlooks such a lovely calming tidal bay. Rose communicated with us extremely well througout our stay. Highly recommend for a stay and thanks 😀

The creativity cabin is a wonderful home away from home. There is gorgeous mountain and sea views and plenty of opportunities to see the nearby wildlife. Anne is an outgoing and friendly host who is also very respectful of guests privacy. The cats are also wonderful :)

Second time staying at the Lazy Acre! Always a great time staying in this lovely home. Great location (ten-minute walk from the town centre or Celtic Ross), close to the beach (Warren Beach), peaceful and very clean. The house can fit a group of seven people for a weekend. Booked the Lazy Acre again for the Rosscarbery Surf Turf and Tar. Anne and Gerry are lovely hosts, as always. Very responsive, respectful and very helpful with recommendations. Can’t wait to book it again for next year.

We absolutely loved Paivi’s home, unbeatable location with incredible ocean views and access for beach walking, swimming. The home was super comfy, the sunroom a beautiful way to meet the morning sunshine. Paivi was super helpful and responsive, a great host, thank you June the goat was a joy, we fed her some apple each evening

We had a wonderful stay at the Beach House! Location, location, location is what it was all about, just stunning! Great outdoor and indoor space for all of the family. We all enjoyed the sauna and it was just a pity that the hot tub was not in use, but it did not spoil anything. The only thing to be mindful of is the shortage of hot water when taking a shower, which i think has been mentioned in previous reviews. However, overall it's the most amazing location and house for a break in West Cork and we really hope we will be back one summer in the future!

Just like Elaine, her home is warm, comfortable and oozes charm. The gardens are lovely and the birds never allow one to get bored; their antics are hilarious. This property is in a breathtaking location, and the view of the sea is stunning, at any time of day or night, and in any weather. It truly was my good fortune to be allowed to stay there! Thanks, Elaine!

Wow, wow, wow! We don’t often write reviews & are reluctantly giving this one only because we would love to keep this gem of a place to ourselves! Myself, my husband & our fur-baby are just back from spending an incredible few days here. If you are looking for a “get away from it all” place to stay, then this is it! A beautiful cosy cottage in a stunning location. It is one of the best places we have ever stayed. The location is quite remote but there is a local store only 10 minutes away. The house itself has everything you need & more, with thoughtful extras; wood for the fire, loads of towels, including beach towels & dry robes, extra blankets, cleaning supplies, & a generous welcome gift. The views are amazing & the best bit - having a breathtaking private clean beach literally a stones throw from your door which we walked every day even in the rain! Ann is a fantastic host & made everything easy from booking to arrival. The only downside - we had to leave! But we will be back.

2nd time down in 2 weeks.. what a beautiful area of the world, so peaceful. The mobile home was just as I wanted, spotless and felt right at home.. couldn't ask for more than what we had, beautiful stay and beautiful area. definitely recommend

Absolutely beautiful part of the world, made better by perfect weather, so many outdoor adventure options. Will be back.

We had such a relaxing stay at Puffin Lodge. Super clean and comfy accommodation, gorgeous scenery and friendly welcoming hosts. All the ingredients that make for a special AirBnB experience. Would highly recommend!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this home from home. The kitchen is well kitted out, clean cosy beds, nice modern bathroom. There is only one bathroom and toilet combined so organisation or a rota is essential when trying to get five/six adults out the door at a certain time. Great location for those who love the great outdoors. Mike was very quick and efficient getting back to me with an answer to a query during our stay. I can't wait to return.

We had a great stay with the family in an exceptional setting and a home that is as much! We were very well received and did not lack anything. We would be happy to come back if the opportunity arises. Alain and Elisabeth

Myself and family,6 adults 2 children spent a weekend here, everything about this property was absolutely amazing, the house was very modern and furnished to an exceptionally high standard, the beds were super comfortable, as in deed was the soft furnishings, and all the modern kitchen appliances, all off this made for a very pleasant and memorable weekend, and of course the proximity to the beach and its stunning views, and finally to our host who was very welcoming and helpful at all times,could not give this property and its location any higher recommendation, if in donegal look it up,

Barbara was a great host. The house was perfect come rain or shine. The Spar shop in Carraroe is only 5 minutes away and was as good as any medium sized supermarket with great choice. Don’t miss the Realt pub if you want a good pint of Guinness

Amazing and unique experience with incredible waterfront views. Saoirse was very welcoming prior to our trip and checked in frequently before we arrived. Her instructions were clear and the house was immaculate, well-equipped, and beautifully decorated. We felt like we were at home the minute we walked in the door, and were blown away with the amenities and views. The house is a short walk from the beach/boardwalk and the town center, but you don't even have to leave the house to have a great experience here.

Excellent house in a beautiful setting! Lots of space for 8 adults, and a 7 and 10 year old. The spacious garden, books, games and toys available in the house were a great hit. The house is within walking distance of Rosscarbery and Warren Beach. Would recommend to family and friends and stay here again!

Best Airbnb experience we've ever had! Here are a few things that make Heron's Rest so special; spectacular views loads of space practical, well-equipped kitchen supremely comfy beds, linens and pillows great showers laundry room with washer and dryer lovely, separate dining room with views overlooking the Harbor spacious bedrooms with room to store and hang clothes amazing quiet great walks (forest and sea) accessible from the house The one thing that made our stay truly special, though, was Robert, who should be hired by Airbnb to teach Hosting! From the remarkably thoughtful welcome basket that included spaghetti and pasta sauce, fresh baked bread, local cheeses, biscuits / crackers, chocolate, a delicious locally produced Relish, etc. to his enthusiasm and local knowledge (the English Market in Cork City Center was great) he made our Airbnb stay very special. Thank you again!

An elegant house in a truly beautiful location. Our whole family (toddlers to grandparents) thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lough Hyne. Tim, the property manager, could not have been more helpful and responsive to any requests. Missing it already and definitely would stay there again another year!

we had a to leave a day early but would have loved to have finished my stay. it was so relaxing

We loved our stay at Whiting Bay. The house is beautiful and set in the most stunning location. Maria was a very helpful host and responded very quickly to any queries. The house is ideal for large groups and worked so well for our family gathering. I would highly recommend.
