Breathtaking view
Rovena and Richard’s home has such wonderful views you could almost just sit and look out the window and do nothing else. But the location is also fantastic for exploring the Rosguill and Inishowen peninsulas. Kitchen is extraordinarily well supplied with lovely cookware, sharp knives, and plenty of plates and glasses of all kinds if you plan to self cater. We especially appreciated the Nespresso machine. Woodstove was lovely, and the bookshelf was well stocked. Hosts replied promptly when we had a question. It’s clear this is a home they use, enjoy, and care for very well, not just a rental.

Dooey Beach Retreat
Stunning location between beaches. House perfect for our needs. Well equipped kitchen. Lots of extra towels. Comfy sofa and beds. Great it was dog friendly. Very short walk from beaches and dunes. Nice welcome basket. Clear communication from Shaun. Great for a relaxing week away at the sea with family and dogs. Thanks Shaun.

Mullaghmore Holiday Home panoramic beach views
We loved our weekend in Mullaghmore in Sheena's house, a perfect family getaway. We had our 2 kids & dog and loved it. The sofa & beds are so comfortable. The kitchen has great facilities, and the standout is the incredible location & views. I loved just sitting on the sofa and staring out at the ocean views. We loved exploring local beaches and scenic drives. We'd love to come back!

Beautiful House in Carndonagh
Fanastic spacious house with everything we needed and more. Great location around 15mins from Culdaff beach and Malin Head. Seemless check in with great communication from Mary ( host ). All in all a wonderful stay at Marys place. Hopefully return soon 😁😁

Fabulous 4 bed house near beach and pier
We really enjoyed our stay in Portsalon. Alice was extremely friendly and communicated well with us. The house is has everything you’ll need and only a 5 minute drive to the beach. Thanks Alice!

Lovely cottage in perfect coastal setting
Peaceful, perfect, very comfortable :)

Spacious 5 bedroom holiday home, with indoor stove
This house was perfect for our needs. As a large group of adults, the number of en-suite rooms was great. The house had a wonderful large kitchen/living space, perfect for gatherings. The house was warm and beds were comfortable. Barbara was quick to respond and very helpful with our check-in and check-out arrangements. There was plenty of equipment and a well stocked cupboard of herbs and spices and odd bits that you need but don’t want to buy just for a few days. The location was perfect - 10 min walk to the centre of Bantry and the views are amazing from the house (despite the rain). We will definitely be back.
Your guide to Ireland
All About Ireland
Sitting between the United Kingdom and the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean in the northwest of Europe, Ireland is a country rich in myth and legend filled with luscious green vales, rolling mountains, and rugged seascapes. The ancient east of the country houses numerous historic structures, including Neolithic sites such as Newgrange, ruined abbeys like Glendalough Monastery, and fortresses including the Rock of Cashel. This region is also home to the capital of Ireland — the buzzing, cosmopolitan city of Dublin — with its museums, Georgian architecture, energetic nightlife, and traditional pubs, where visitors come to enjoy the craic.
The west boasts famously consistent waves at Lahinch, drawing surfers from far and wide, along with the Wild Atlantic Way, a 2,600-kilometre coastal road stretching from Kinsale in the south to Derry in the north and showcasing towering cliffs and a glacial fjord along the route. Cities including Galway and Limerick keep traditional folk music, Irish dancing, and the country’s ancient language alive in stone-built local pubs, while the circular Ring of Kerry route takes in thundering waterfalls and sweeping coastal vistas.
The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Ireland
Awe-inspiring landscapes give Ireland year-round appeal, whether heading for the beaches in the summer or watching the waves crash against the Cliffs of Moher in the winter. The busiest months of the year are July and August during the school holidays, when visitors make the most of warmer temperatures and outdoor restaurant tables spill out onto the streets of Dublin. Rain is common even in the summer, when you may experience different seasons within just a few hours. However, Ireland experiences its highest rainfall and strongest winds blowing in from the Atlantic from autumn to spring. Bear in mind that some boat services, such as to Skellig Michael island and the Aran Islands, normally only operate in the peak season. Rain or shine, a weekend-long seafood festival brings seafood lovers to the west coast city each September.
Top things to do in Ireland
Dublin
Perched at the mouth of the River Liffey on the country’s eastern coast, the cosmopolitan city of Dublin is the capital of Ireland, boasting more than 1,000 years of history, from the 9th-century manuscript the Book of Kells at Trinity College and St Patrick’s Cathedral right up the way through to Capital Dock. Visitors can soak up the atmosphere of hurling and Gaelic football at Croke Park and get a taste of the city’s whisky and stout-making heritage.
Cliffs of Moher
Take a walk along the Doolin Cliff Walk midway down the west coast of Ireland to reach one of the most photographed sites in the country, the dramatic Cliffs of Moher. The cliffs feature sheer drops of up to more than 200 metres and are around eight kilometres in length. Stop by in the early morning to see the mist rising up from crashing Atlantic waves.
Blarney Castle
The partially-ruined Blarney Castle on the outskirts of Cork in the south of Ireland is almost 600 years old. Sprawling grounds feature lush ferns, tranquil woodland, and even a poison garden. The castle is also home to the legendary Blarney Stone — it is said that if someone kisses it, it will grant them the power of great eloquence or ‘the gift of the gab.’
