Family-friendly holiday rentals in Athlone

my family and I had a great week at the Coach house, and the house was spacious and very well equipped and clean. the main attractions are outdoors! the lake at the bottom of the driveway! the beach, the private hot tub was amazing and so spacious. the games room was fab! everyone loved it, from the adults to the kids, hours of entertainment 😀 highly recommend 👌

thank you so much for a lovely and relaxing stay. we had everything we needed and we will definitely be back. I recommend these cottages xxx

Just back from a great stay at the tree top apartments Accommodation was exactly as described, clean and cosy We had great weather while we were there so made full use of the bbq area in the garden Excellent location as a base to explore this beautiful part of the country We will definitely be booking again in the future , thanks Robyn

Great host. Quiet setting but nearest town Balliborough poor for evening restaurants. From description we thought kayak n paddle boards came with chalet - had to book but little available . Hot tub great . All in all we would highly recommended it .

We absolutely loved our stay at Rock Farm Slane! The place is so peaceful, surrounded by nature, making it the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle. Our dog, Zoe, had the best time exploring the wide, walkable spaces and taking in the beautiful sights. The atmosphere is serene, and it’s a wonderful spot to relax and unwind. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a tranquil getaway—especially for those with pets who love the outdoors! We’ll definitely be back.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was our second stay at Mark’s Eden Retreat Cottage. We stayed there last year and loved it so much we came again this year. The size was perfect for a small group of friends on a combined business and leisure trip. We love the spacious kitchen and especially the little fireplace. The surroundings are beautiful and peaceful and just a short trip into town for supplied, pubs, busses, shopping, etc. Last year we used the hottub but this year it was out of service. Mark notified us in advance of this and compensated us for the inconvenience, which I appreciated very much.. Mark is a great communicator! Will stay again. Thank you!

As advertised. We had a nice relaxing stay. If you’re looking to unplug for a weekend in a rural area , in a rustic cabin, this is for you. It is not a hotel but glamping but pictures were accurate. Communication was great but be aware no wi fi and cell service didn’t work for us. Hunter the dog guided us on a nice nature walk.

We had a great family stay to celebrate my father in-laws 90th birthday. The location was great and the house was very private with lovely grounds for our dog to explore and play. The house was very clean and well equipped with everything we needed for our stay - 7 adults and our dog, there is a lovely outside sitting area and covered BBQ/eating area with a hot tub which we used during our stay. There is also access to the lake with kayaks and life jackets for you to use. Cygnet lodge is perfect for families or friends get togethers as there is so much room, big kitchen/ dining area, living room and outside space, comfortable bedrooms and ensuites. Dawn greeted us on arrival and explained how to set up the hot tub she was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We would really love to return again sometime.

We were more than satisfied with the accommodation. We were greeted by horses and the extremely sweet little dog Minnie, and then by delicious scones in the apartment. The area is beautiful and we went on several day trips to Connemara National Park, Burren National Park, the Aran Islands/Cliffs of Moher and Galway. What's more, the area was just perfect for us and the children. My daughters loved feeding the horses and playing with Minnie the dog. Or, if it rains a little, there is additional room for playing, which is equipped with some toys, table tennis, etc. Maura responded quickly to minor problems and helped us out, and was generally very accommodating. If we ever visit Ireland again, we will definitely stop by here again.

Great place to stay for the night!

We spent about 3 weeks touring Scotland and Ireland and this was hands down the cleanest and prettiest flat throughout our stay. It was so close to all the action; however, was far enough away to have some peace. The check directions were smooth. You can hear people outside with the windows open - and sometimes a bit late but it really wasn’t anything that would keep you up at night. Would absolutely stay here again.

If you're looking for a traditional Irish country cottage, with plenty of space, and privacy, you won't go wrong with this. Margaret the host was fabulous from the moment it was booked and really couldn't have been more helpful. The cottage has everything you could possibly need, both indoors and outdoors and it was lovely to find some buns, milk, orange juice and water on arrival. A very nice touch. Thoroughly recommend the host and the cottage. Book with confidence - you won't regret it.

A beautifully and extremely well equipped home that was a perfect base for us to explore the region. The elegantly designed cottage was comfortable and spotlessly clean and the private enclosed back garden was the icing on the cake with the beautiful sunshine and our dog who could potter about freely. Celine as a host was extremely friendly in her interactions and was very responsive to all messages. I have no qualms about recommending this listing to others.

great place to get away from it all, lovely patio to eat on when the sun shines. great area for walking. hope to get back again for longer

Lovely, quaint cottage in a really scenic area. The fire was very cosy. Great and responsive host. Thank you so much!

Great place to stay. It is clean and the location is unbeatable! It was somewhat difficult to find as there are several apartment/condo buildings next to each other, but not too bad. I would definitely stay here again if I return to Galway.

Peacefull ,,,lovely garden for morning coffee ,clean simple and fitted description , Once booked everything was clear ,location Key ,woodburner ,wifi etc , would book again if in locality

We had a fabulous few days staying at The Stables. Breda and Joe have a lovely country property. We love the goodie left for us from Breda. Scones and bread both home made. The cottage is so well equipped with most things you’d need to get by but a Centra only a few minutes away has lots of options. The bed was so comfortable as were the pillows and the fluffiest feather doona. The cottage is heated but we felt we didn’t need heating on as it’s very warm inside anyway but great if it turns cold. A bonus is the washer and dryer, we’d not been able to wash for several day so felt like all home comforts were covered. We loved the kitchen and dining area, great for preparing our meals. Breda has a vegetable and herb garden which she was happy for us to use, I made good use of salad stuff and herb. We got to meet Joe who was brings the horses back into the sheds, we got to see an 8 day old foal, such a highlight for me coming from Australia’s beach scene. We highly this place Fiona

We had an excellent experience in familly. Finola was responsive, and made everything easy. I would definitely recommend this place and would be happy to stay here again!

This was a wonderful place!

Fantastic accomodation and really helpful host

Stephen and Michelle were so friendly and generous, plenty of wood for fire and fire all made up for us, also lovely little touches everywhere and plenty of goodies to consume 🙂 Such a quite and quaint place to stay. Had everything you need and more! Always conmunicative and highly recommended. Good spot for exploring Enniskillen and surrounds.

We booked this magnificent home for a portion of our family to attend a vow renewal in the area, and it was everything that we hoped for. With four bedrooms, two living rooms, a huge kitchen and eating space, and gorgeous grounds - the entire group was able to stay comfortably, and enjoy cooking and sharing meals together, without being on top of each other. The furnishings are also very well done. Anne and Maree were extremely helpful, and always available to answer questions. I can highly recommend this listing to others.

Although we only stayed at Peters place for one night, we plan on coming back in the future, it was fantastic Peter went over and above what was necessary to accommodate us and the place was immaculately clean being on a farm we found it a great experience and loved the cows and the dog I would highly recommend it to friends and family and we are planning coming back again
