*Stunning River Views*, modern in great location
For a work trip to Southampton, Marc’s apartment is perfect. Easy to locate a short walk to the docks & old town with some great food. The apartment was very chic, lovely view of the river, very safe & secure. Parking was an excellent addition. I felt very comfortable mixing work & a little tourism. Thoroughly enjoyed the visit & would definitely wish to return.

Luxury Ouseburn flat with city & river views
Comfortable flat within easy walk of Ouseburn, Quayside and Byker Metro Great view of Tyne. Flat was spotless and Clive was a very responsive host Would recommend

Riverside apartment city views
I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area. Nigel was a great host . The view is amazing and it’s an easy walk across the Peace Bridge to downtown Derry. Book it , you will have no regrets. 😊

Charming Waterfront Maisonette
Amazing views, clean, comfortable, well equipped with great communication. We really enjoyed our stay, it’s a great place to use as a base to explore Dartmouth and the surrounds during the day and to sit on the balcony and enjoy the sunset over Dartmouth in the evening.

Stunning place with loads of amenities. Looks even better than in the photos. Lorraine was also very kind. Highly recommend!!

2 Bed Apartment with river balcony and parking
A really well appointed apartment. Beautifully decorated and in a good location to explore the Sussex coastal area. Parking space was right outside the apartment. The bed linen and towels were lovely and every amenities and appliance you could possibly need was to hand. Highly recommend staying in the apartment. Very clean and comfortable.

RIVERVIEw 5 bed HOT TUB ContractorsSleeps10
Excellent accommodation over looking the river with a pub/restaurant within 100m. Local walks to exercise or look at the local nature. Ideal accommodation to fit our family in and a great place to relax or travel to local attractions. Emma was great providing us with all the useful information you would otherwise have to research yourself. All the space was spot on and the hot Tub was fantastic to relax in either day or night. Would definitely recommend.

Seaside House (Ridge house), Sandycove, Kinsale
I stayed at Janet’s at the start of the Easter holidays with my husband, two children and mother. We had an absolutely wonderful time. The location and view were fantastic, and the cottage was very comfortable and well equipped. Janet was incredibly helpful and the whole experience was just what we hoped for. We’re already planning when we might be able to come back!

Contemporary House@ Creekside
Mark has built something very special, the photos do not actually do it justice. Very clean and modern, superb outdoor area too and magnificent views (with a great pub nearby as a bonus!).

Waterside, King size Bed, Eateries/Pub 3 min walk

Superb Sea view apartment, at Fahan Co. Donegal
Seamless from check in to leaving. Amazing spacious apartment, has everything you'll need there & the most incredible sunset from the balcony. Can highly recommend.

Stunning Ocean Views, Modern Decor, Sleep 6. WiFi
The views are wonderful and we loved how close the apartment is to the beach. We had many dog walks. The apartment was spotless and we appreciated the binoculars and telescope. We had a meal at Rockfish which was fabulous and also really liked the Beach pub which is opposite. We would definitely stay again, truly a hidden gem.

Penthouse Marina Apartment
This is the 2nd time we’ve stayed at Chris’s place. The views are outstanding and the bustling marina is only around the corner. Well equipped kitchen which we cooked in on both occasions. Great location for those interested in walking along the Somerset coastal path. We got to Clevedon this time! The only real drawback is the 4 flights of stairs (worth it once you’re up there! 🤩) which might be tricky for less able people. We will definitely return again 🤗

Newly Renovated Self Contained Studio with Parking
Exactly as described and as shown on the photos! Super convenient and cosy and the hosts were really welcoming. I felt at home instantly. The location is perfect, everything is so close, there’s the train and bus stations, restaurants, shops and more. I a 100% recommend staying there 😊!

Harbour View Luxury 2bdrm Retreat in Heart of Cobh
This space was just perfect for our visit to Cobh. It was in the best location, with a gorgeous water view and within walking distance to every thing in town. A big plus was the parking spaces right out front. We parked the car and didn't move it. The space was spotless and uncluttered. Just note, there is a flight of stairs up to the living area. then a second flight to the bedrooms; ok for us but others may find them problematic. I highly recommend this location.

Relaxing Sea Front Apartment - Balcony & Parking
We really enjoyed staying in this apartment with a wonderful view. Everything was spotless and also Dean and his family were always available. We also received great tips for excursions and restaurants in the surrounding area. There was also a little sweet welcome greeting and a nice card available. An exceptionally beautiful stay right by the beach and sea of Stonehaven. We'd love to come back anytime. Thank you very much.

POND VIEW The Harbour Mill Westport Quay
If / when we visit Ireland again we'll probably do the south, but will try to include a few days in Westport just so we can stay in this fantastic apartment and do more of the many drivable activities from Westport. Christina was kind and warm, very accommodating, and gave us great advice about local food, music and shopping. This was by far the best visit of our stay - even better than our night at The Grand in Malahide (which was also lovely)! Thank you Christina!

CityView | Waterfront | Free Parking | Entire Flat
Beautiful apartment with a lovely view. Nice 25 min or so walk along the river to the docks and then into town. Clean and comfortable furnishings and well equipped with everything you might need. Clear instructions on how to find and access the property. A real find.
