Beach house vacation rentals in Cork

Lovely and calm boathouse right next to a beautyful bay. I loved the morning swims, the sunrises and sunsets. You can watch birds and we were lucky enough to watch otters several times! Stephanie is a very friendly person and gave us several tips. My partner said I should give 5 of 5 otters for the accomodation. I totally agree :-)

Just a magical location! Can’t describe it in words!! Beautifully decorated. Everything was perfect! I can’t say enough..

Admiral House was the perfect spot for family getaway on beautiful Bere Island. The house was clean and had every amenity needed including a stroller and high chair for a toddler. Lots to explore on the island and there are 2 local ferries for day trips to Beara Peninsula. The host and her grandma were so kind dropping off Irish bread and a quiche. All in all a lovely visit would highly recommend for a quiet relaxing time.

Simply lovely, from the very start it was an amazing stay, arrived at the house at an earlier time than check in which was very accommodating of Marie, we found the house very clean and had everything you want, there really is nothing she is missing if you plan on staying and making meals for yourself. It really is amazing layout in the house and lots of space. The hot tub, the bath and the separate shower with the rain shower head and the regular one is really magnificent! The area is so easy to go explore the Dingle peninsula from. Would definitely recommend to anyone and would return again!

Anne was so incredibly kind. Our crew had a lovely stay and I can't recommend this home enough.

I just spent a week in this stunning home of Jerry and Kelly. With stunning views over Ballycotton Harbour and the sea, the house is beautifully decorated, very homely and warm and incredibly well equipped. Definitely the best equipped self-catering kitchen I have ever seen! I was there with a few friends and we just had the most lovely of times chatting at the dining table or snuggled up on the couches. 5 Star accommodation in a beautiful location. I will definitely be back!

We really, really loved our stay in Dunworly. It was absolutely stunning. We definitely learned the way of the windy, narrow roads and felt like pros by the end. The beach was easily the most amazing view we have ever seen. We really enjoyed the quick walk to it and went every morning. We quickly adapted to the drive to the restaurants and shops in Timoleague, Bandon, and Clonakilty. Our favorite restaurant was in Bandon - Copper Grove - it was incredible! We loved the small towns and getting that “locals” feel. Our time at Tommy’s Beach House was easily the highlight of our trip. Thank you for making our trip from New Orleans wonderful!

Even if October is not necessarily the right time for a summer house, we really enjoyed being in Paula's beach house. On the rainy and cold days we appreciated the boost function of the heating, a very welcome facility. The house is clean, equipped with everything and was recently renovated. You notice that here the experienced "housewife" personally and with much love keeps the house in good shape. The house is located in an absolutely quiet area, you can effectively hear the waves, The view of the Bay and the sunset is wonderful. The large garden and the playroom invite you to linger. Paula is a very gracious hostess. and takes loving care of her guests. Communication with Paula is very easy as she is always available and responds promptly. We thank Paula for letting us stay in her house during 5 days. We would love to come again

We had an absolutely fantastic time here. Would highly recommend. The house was spotless, very well kept. The beds were all extremely comfortable, all with fresh linen. The view was amazing. The house is right on the water. The gardens and estate was an excellent place to go for a wander and explore. Paul was an excellent host. We cant wait to come back again

Beautiful part of the country, stunning location, amazing house. All you could ask for.

We had an amazing stay in Forester's House in Inish Beg Estate.The check in was very easy and the house was very spacious and clean with gorgeous views and surroundings. The use of the pool was brilliant bonus!

Was a great location and chance to be in Kenmare! Have a family of 6, so it was great to have enough space for everyone. All four kids were comfortable and enjoyed walking through the streets of Kenmare. We only stayed two nights, and were charged extra for the cleaning fee which was figured out later, so fyi

Lovely spacious and very clean house on a peaceful island in county cork. We spent 5 nights here for my mother in law’s birthday. Well located to explore the surrounding beaches, bays, islands and countryside. Unfortunately our fridge broke but the team were very quick to create solutions and then fix it. Very good communication from the Inish Beg team. Thank you

We absolutely loved every moment of our stay in this adorable cottage. Georgina was lovely and very communicative well before we arrived so we knew exactly where to go and how to get in. The cottage was steps from the beach as promised, and we were often torn between our sightseeing plans for the day and just sticking around to enjoy the views as much as possible. We hope very much that we’ll be able to stay here again in the future.

This is such a great place to stay! The quiet and privacy at the end of the road, on the beach, is really incredible. The house is cozy and beautiful. The centrality for different things you might want to do around the Ring is also really good. We loved it and would stay again. You should know that there's not a lot of activity in the off season (and evidently late March is still the off season). We ended up shopping at the local grocery at the gas station and eating at home the whole time. Also the house could be a little better organized and explained from an AirBnB perspective. It would have helped to have a binder explaining how to use things (like the thermostat) and the kitchen setup could be more traveler-friendly with the cooking basics in place and laid out for you to use.

Fantastic stay at The Eagles! Host Alan couldn’t do more for us, and the location is unreal. 5 mins from the town, but still far enough out to have lots of privacy! Would highly recommend for large groups, tonnes of space to accomodate everyone comfortably!

We fell in love with this house. It’s in a beautifully secluded spot with direct access to the water. We swam each morning and it was bliss. The layout of the house is great, with a large open plan kitchen, dining and living room and a gorgeous deck that gets the sun. The surrounding area is stunning. We particularly liked the Buddhist centre and vegetarian cafe, which is in a gorgeous spot with breathtaking views. Would love to go back and spend more time exploring.

Sheila was very friendly and helpfully provide lots of advise on the local area. The accommodation was spotless and Sheila very kindly left milk, eggs, biscuits etc for our stay. In high season there are local pubs which you can walk to that serve food and out of season drink only which was when we stayed. Sheila had helpfully advised us that food service in these local pub / restaurants had stopped so we could bring food for dinner or plan drive to restaurants in nearby villages. Overall a lovely stay in a beautiful part of West Cork.

We had a wonderful few days at Anne’s house. Great location, beautiful views and COMFORTABLE (warm, well appointed +). We’ll be back!

Our stay in Glenbeigh, at Driftwood House, could not have been lovelier. With the location on the Ring of Kerry, the view in all directions was breathtaking. Sheep-filled hills in front and an ocean view behind made for a beautiful, peaceful stay. Gretta and William were simply wonderful. They were not only friendly but so helpful in offering suggestions for our activities and driving routes during our stay. Their recommendations for food were perfect and delicious! On our final day, they provided us with helpful tips as we continued our travels to the Cliffs of Moher and Galway. Their bed and breakfast truly feels like home. It is clean, warm and cozy and allowed us to relax into each evening comfortably with a fire in the fireplace. Gretta’s morning scones are to die for and the perfect start to any day! Thank you for making our stay in Glenbeigh so memorable. We certainly hope to visit again! Jim, Connie, Mike & Debbie

Bernie's Rest was an absolutely beautiful property close to the water. It was a pleasure to stay at this Airbnb, perfect if you're looking to relax and unwind with an amazing view. Dominic and Gráinne have built a wonderful Airbnb offering guests privacy, a beautiful modern interior with thoughtful touches throughout. From the cozy furnishings to the well-equipped kitchen, everything has been designed with comfort in mind. The large windows let in plenty of natural light and frame the stunning scenery perfectly. Highly recommend!
