Farmstay vacation rentals in Sligo

I spent one month at this beautiful home and could not have been happier. The house is very comfortable and well appointed, has great views, loved the glass conservatory - warm in occasional sunshine on cool days, thunderously atmospheric on rainy days. Happy to find yoga mats and a meditation cushion, a pair of wellies to borrow, and very much enjoyed the fireplace and the smell of peat briquettes. The house is very secluded in lovely rural countryside filled with farmland lakes and woods, but only a 20-30 minute drive to several nearby towns with quite a lot going on in them, and of course beautiful nature and hikes and neolithic monuments and medieval ruins in all directions. Nola was extremely helpful and communicative and full of knowledge about the area. Although there's no wired internet, there's quite a strong mobile signal most of the time (I found Eir service to be good enough for streaming and video calls) so the wifi hotspots at the house should serve you well, though sometimes the signal worsens in heavy rain or at occasional other times, but was always steady enough for casual use.

Lovely flagstoned home with beach access. You would need a car if staying here. Very quiet and dark at night which made it great for stargazing when we had beautiful clear skies. Bedrooms a good size. We used 4 x €2 coins for electricity during our 6 night stay in mid-March when it was very cold. Oil worked out at €27 for the same period. The area is very beautiful. No big touristy highlights but lovely quiet boreens. Great beaches for walking. On a nice day would recommend the two lakes, Easkey and Talt, up in the mountains. We had the former to ourselves!! Margaret was very attentive and baked us a lovely homemade bread which was the best. She left us to do our own thing but we knew she was around if we needed her (which we didn't) Home well-stocked.

Martina is a wonderful host, very friendly and helpful, makes you feel at home immediately, . Beautiful countryside location, quiet and peaceful, would certainly recommend.

Absolutely amazing place to stay. Not so far that it’s all a hassle but far enough that you get as much disconnection as you need. Check-in was extremely easy and there was absolutely anything you could’ve needed at the cottage. I hope to come back here some day and highly recommend.

Communication with the host Patrick was really good throughout, very helpful and informative. We didn't get to meet him but his brother Tom was on site. Very welcoming and friendly and showed us around. We had a lovely stay, the house was very clean and beds were super comfy. Lovely views from the windows upstairs. The kids enjoyed the little playroom downstairs. Great location too for getting around and seeing all the local sights. Definitely recommend The Stables, we will definitely book again next time we're in the area.

Really can't say enough about this place. Located in the most idyllic spot, the property is extremely well kept and has everything you could need. Maura & David were extremely accommodating offering us a late check out, putting together a gorgeous welcome hamper with all essentials and helping us organise a taxi to a wedding we were attending. They were also extremely kind and gracious at checkout when we discovered our car wouldn't start, gave us a jump start and allowed us back into the accommodation to use the facilities while we waited to get sorted. Thank you so much Maura & David we are extremely grateful.

Lovely place, great views, kids loved the garden space. Easy drive to local towns. Brilliant few days.

Great cottage! Amazing secluded location but very close to an excellent Supervalu and easy drives to lots of great walks and to Sligo Town. Catherine almost talks the cottage down! Whilst it is a traditional cottage it is wonderful. Clean, has everything we needed, good shower (would be 100% perfect is there was a bath for after big walks). Great place for dogs with enclosed property, lots of outdoor space and a cosy living space. Some dogs might escape out the gate if unsupervised but that's quite far up the lane. We would definitely stay here again if Catherine will have us!

We stayed over the weekend at Geraldine's place and it was lovely! You are in the middle of beautiful nature and by car only a few minutes away of Foxford and Ballina which both have some nice restaurants and bars. The room has everything you need, including some breakfast to make yourself and coffee. The place was super clean and we felt very comfortable! If you're planning to visit the west, I can highly recommend staying at Geraldine's place. :)

We had an amazing stay! Very peaceful spot especially with the noise of the river while your sleep. The rooms were spacious and the beds were super comfy. I loved that there was no tv! We used the pizza ovens for dinner one night which was very handy and tasty. Having the jacuzzi and sauna was so nice! We spent most or weekend in them both. Catriona was extremely helpful and an amazing host! She went above and beyond for us all as a party of 4

We had an amazing time! The cottage has all necessary facilities as described. We'll definitely come back in the future. Communication with the host was perfect also.

We had a lovely stay at Justina’s house. Beautiful surroundings, very peaceful and relaxing. The house was well equipped and the welcome gifts much appreciated Justina was helpful and responsive Highly recommend if you are looking for a peaceful escape

We had such a lovely stay, Eddie and Anne were very welcoming and helpful. The cottage was clean and tidy, when we arrived they had left us fresh egss, bread, milk, cheese, tea, coffee and juice, which was a lovely surprise, alot of places we have stayed do not do that and it does make such a welcoming difference. The fireplace is amazing and the views around are stunning. We will be back.

A big thanks to Nicola and Durcan for our wonderful stay at Annaghmore House, Sligo. The days past far to quickly, there was so much to see and explore. We enjoyed meeting their beautiful and friendly dogs, they always had a welcome for us. We loved breakfast while chatting with our hosts Nicola and Durcan, finding out all about the history of the House, which was fascinating. Nicola recommended places to go and visit. My only complaint is that our stay was too short. I hope we get an opportunity to visit again, maybe while doing the ‘Sligo Way’ trail next year.

Such a lovely place, the pictures do not give it justice! It is so spacious and really homely. Perfect for guests visiting weddings in the Sligo area. We stayed with our wedding party and it couldn’t have been a better start to the weekend. Kathleen was extremely helpful. Thank you again for letting us stay!

very nice place, very nice host and very friendly dog Freya. I recommend

lovely, peaceful place to stay, beautiful surroundings. characterful house, good size front room with stove and spacious kitchen that is well equipped, ideal for larger family groups. All beds very comfortable. Added bonus of taking a rowing boat out on the lake, which was very enjoyable . Host very responsive and clear instruction/communication. Thank you for a great stay.

Cherry Cottage was just the perfect stay cation for the whole family: homely, so well stocked up with coffee, tea, milk, farm eggs!, books, toys, towels, blankets, wood for the stove. Everything was perfect, the house is so warm and comfy, the surroundings peaceful and beautiful. The hosts went above and beyond to help us settle in and enjoy our stay. So much to visit locally too - in summary, real gem of a stay.

We loved this house, a superb family destination, our 4 kids loved the up stairs play area. The down stairs was wonderfully set up for family meal times. The location is excellent, the kids got a few days of surf school and we saw a good bit of Sligo and got some great tips on what to do from the hosts.

Wow! Geraldine and Steve Milk Harbour is just stunning! The location is spectacular and as a frequent traveller of Ireland (and I come from Galway) I don’t say that lightly. The views, the sights, the walks. It was perfect. And then the accommodation! And Wow it was everything you Need and more. It was so comfortable and inviting. A real home from home. G & S were so generous with their time sharing their knowledge and stories. They also were very generous with set up tea coffee bread! It was perfect just what was needed. And we will be back! Thank you both c
