Family-friendly vacation rentals in County Cork

The house is lovely, very cozy and clean. We had a great mom’s weekend getaway and we couldn’t have picked a better spot. Marcella is a great host, very friendly and accommodating. We highly recommended it.

Kilcoe Cottage is a comfortable, spacious house that suited us perfectly. Sharon and her husband were very helpful and friendly and made our stay very enjoyable without being intrucive. Barty the dog is also very friendly and welcomed us every time we arrived. The layout of the house is lovely, with open plan kitchen/dining room/lounge area and a useful seating area. The Skibbereen area is well worth a visit, with it's beautiful countryside and coastline, along with it's fascinating history.

How blissful to lay star gazing in the jacuzzi after a long drive. And that bed-my partner was convinced the duvet was a cloud! We knew we were immersed in the countryside when we woke to birdsong & the cows in the field next door lowing! There's so much on offer in the locality - we had to prise ourselves away- very tempting to stay in one of the many sunny, comfortable spots (indoors or out). Our hosts afforded us privacy and were also only a phonecall or a knock away. As for creature comforts, there was plenty of hot water and we appreciated the availability of environmentally friendly soap and detergents and efficient recycling and composting facilities. As we had pre planned activities, we were unable to avail of renowned chef Chris' very tempting menu...next time!.

My family and I had a great stay. Plenty of space and a nice big table to share a meal and play cards!

Heidi and Des’s place was fantastic. Very spacious house, in a lovely, rural setting. The house was spotless, with plenty of fresh towels and toiletries. The hot tub was lovely, super relaxing and very clean. Heidi and Des were very helpful and responsive in all communication. The price was very reasonable. Would definitely stay here again.

A dream location, at the edge of the water, in the middle of nature for this small eco-friendly campsite. The change of scenery is total. The atmosphere is very friendly and simple, thanks in particular to the facilities (large common room, outdoor kitchen... ) and amenities (dishes, stoves, cutlery...). The children are in paradise and the accommodations on offer are varied to suit every need. The village of Goleen is ready and offers different services (convenience store, cafe, pub, beer garden, tourist office...)

My family and I had a wonderful stay over Xmas. The house is perfect for large parties. We were easily able to accommodate 7 adults and one toddler and would have been comfortable with more people. The property is great for family dinners and lounging around the tv. It is also an easy walk to the downtown. Highly recommend.

Our stay at Didean was a chance for all our family to spend some quality time together. The property was clean and comfortable and spacious enough to accommodate all 13 of us ! Couldn’t fault it! Niamh and Natalie were very helpful and responded to messages promptly and were very friendly and helpful. The surrounding area is just beautiful! Definitely recommended

We were delighted to find the postcode took us directly to the house, we all felt instantly at home and loved the warm family home we’d stepped into. The garden is beautiful, places to play or hide away set against stunning countryside. The conservatory was a wonderful place to get together too. Fully equipped kitchen, always a plus. Pat was a great host always promptly responding to any requests and super friendly. We absolutely loved it! Highly recommended.

Stunning setting, accommodation has everything you need to self-cater. Martin and his family are friendly and helpful. Happy to advise on local places of interest, especially if you are a golfer. All round special host.

Beautiful location with great views and town close by. Really helpful hosts who gave loads of great recommendations

Lovely views of the mountains in a quiet location, just a bit outside of the village. Warm friendly welcome from Debbie, she told us to ring 1 hour before we arrived so she could put on heating for us. Lovely breakfast pack to get us started on first day, nice little thoughtful touches in everything provided. There were 4 of us, touring and hiking in the local area. We would all happily return should we have the opportunity. Thanks Debbie!

Such a beautiful simple little cabin in an ideal location. Amazing view of the sea right from the cabin. Anne was amazingly friendly. Even made a tasty apple pie! I’ll defo be back. Soon i hope

With the provided postcode and sat nav, it was easy to find. A lovely welcome from Billy who had great information on walks, local shops etc., and was easily available for any queries. We stayed 8 days and would happily stay again. A car is essential. The bedrooms were very comfortable, kitchen had enough utensils in it so that we could easily cook some basic meals when we did not want to eat out. It is the countryside and while we appreciate the beauty, seclusion and noises and smells of being out of town, I guess it might not be the place for anyone who wants everything on their doorstep with no effort required. The accommodation is spacious for 6 people, but there is only the one toilet in the shower room, so bear that in mind if that's a problem for you. It wasn't for us! The internet gave us no problems either, but we were not streaming videos etc. The only difficulty we had was that we had to go home at the end of the stay.

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

Highly recommend Cecilia’s place! It was the perfect spot to stay at in between exploring Dingle and The Ring of Kerry. Cecilia provides wonderful recommendations & the location/house is gorgeous!

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

Excellent apartment, filled witheverything you need for self catering. A short walk away from local pubs and restaurants.

We loved this gorgeous cottage. Roomy, characterful, very well equipped. It felt like home. Perfect for warm or cold weather with a pool for the sunny days and log fires for the rainy days. A perfect airbnb! Our host was wonderful as well.

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

Fabulous place to stay, lots to see and do on the estate. We wished we had booked for longer and will definitely try and visit again.

Excellent holiday for our family from start to finish! Peter was friendly and responsive in his communications and getting in and out of the property was effortless. The location was just perfect ! Great restaurants close by, access to a lovely swimming pool in the hotel just across the road, shops nearby & easy walk into town. The house was immaculately cleaned and had everything we needed and furniture was all very comfortable and good quality. Kenmare is a great base for exploring the local area - I would highly recommend Peter’s holiday home to anyone who is planning a trip to this area of Kerry!!!

We had such a gorgeous stay. The cottage was cosy and well equipped, the little private outside seating area was lovely. The pool was a big hit with the kids and it was great to have the whole thing to ourselves for the entire hour. We had many gorgeous walks in the grounds, my 10 year old daughter loved the fairy walk. Paul was very friendly and helpful, a perfect host. A truly magical place.

Lovely hotel with beautiful views, garden, bar and restaurant. Landscaping work being done near the bottom of the hotel was a minor inconvenience with noise but the quality of the rooms and hotel makes up for it. It’s a solid walk to the MacCurtain precinct but fine if you’re able bodied. We’d stay here again as I’m sure the work is only temporary.
