Farmstay holiday rentals in County 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.

Had an enjoyable stay with fabulous surroundings and a lovely host.

Thank you for such an unforgettable stay. For the warm welcome, for sharing your magnificent manor home with us, for the delicious breakfasts, for all the history and local information, for the cosy evenings in front of the fire, for the glorious views from the bedrooms, for the joy of taking the dogs on a long walk through the estate (or maybe they took us). It was all an amazing experience.

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.

Five stars from start to finish, myself and my family and doggies really enjoyed our stay in Ash Lodge , the location is spectacular with beautiful scenery all around , the welcome basket was a wonderful and extremely welcome touch and we felt spoilt with the homemade scones! The accommodation is a home away from home ! Literally I grew up on a farm and loved this setting and that the family were so welcoming and the kids loved the cows , every aspect is immaculate and so well cared for from the house to the gardens to the comfortable sofas and beds ! We would highly recommend both the host and the accommodation!

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!

Myself & two friends stayed at Caitriona’s cottages to reunite as a celebration for our birthdays. The vibe was so peaceful & everything we needed. Caitríona was more than helpful & a big inspiration to converse with. Caitriona’s land, amenities, animals, hospitality were all A1! Highly recommend. My only complaint was that, we didn’t have another day! 🥰

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.

Really lovely home exactly as described. Would stay again and would recommend to friends.

I am SO in love with Diana's home. We had 7 adults, a toddler and dogs and yet there was still loads of room. The rooms are massive, so everyone had lots of space to sleep, and the dogs could run around the grounds. EVERYTHING you ever need is there, toys for the kids, dog treats, every type of kitchen utensil and a gorgeous welcome basket. But there is a shop 300 steps away and loads of lovely towns nearby. The beaches were 4 mins away in the car each and just so peaceful, not full at all. I will be back and will be telling everyone about this peaceful place.

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.

Rose Cottage had a beautiful large garden, safe for our dogs. We loved the garden room for relaxing and dining. Everything we needed was there. The town of Ballymote was only 4 miles away with cafes and a great supermarket. The property was rural and quiet, we all had a great nights sleep! We will definitely consider returning in the future.

Beautiful home and pictures just do not do justice as it exceeded our expectations. The beds were super comfortable and showers were powerful and good. Only downside was no internet which was annoying but Roderick explained the tower was down and kindly offered to go to his home should we need it urgently. We would happily stay again.

We had a perfect stay at Fynn’s . It was just what we needed for our holiday really. The place was serene and beautiful, offering a peaceful retreat and there are walkable trails nearby. Fynn was a great host, friendly and welcoming. We also loved spending time with Freya, his wonderful dog. We really enjoyed our time there and would happily return!

This cottage is much more lovely in person and more spacious. The living room was gorgeous and so cosy with the stove, blankets galore and comfy couch. The bedrooms were all lovely, clean and spacious also. It felt very peaceful there with such beautiful surroundings and Holly Amber and Barbara have thought of everything. The kitchen is very well equipped and the cottage is beautifully decorated. There are lots of books and games for children and adults and also lots of local information at your finger tips which is very helpful for planning your days visiting the richly engaging area. Our two boys aged 8 and 10 and our dog had great fun in the large back garden and on the beautiful Streedagh beach, only a few minutes drive away. We definitely would love to return.

A great place to stay. House felt really homely. So many little extras provided which really made a positive impact on our stay. Kathleen was very kind and helpful. The house is situated in a beautiful and peaceful area. Seeing the donkeys every day was a treat!

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.

Geraldine and Steve’s place really has it all. The incredibly beautiful setting right on the Atlantic shore and the stunning apartment designed to bring it all in. Large windows fill the space with light and watching the changing skies, the birdlife and basking seals kept us entertained. Geraldine and Steve are a warm friendly and informative couple and we appreciated the kind touch of the treats they left for us. We’ve stayed in a lot of Airbnbs in Ireland and several other countries and for us this is our favourite - hope to return soon.
