Guest house holiday rentals in Galway

Our 4-night stay was fabulous. Our two-bedroom lodging was lovely, and the picturesque grounds surrounding Crumlin Park House are beautiful. It was quiet and peaceful— yet Galway is just a 30-minute drive away. Maura and John are friendly and helpful hosts. I highly recommend staying here.

Paradise on earth!!! What an amazing find this was! The cottage felt like living in a movie, it was so peaceful and charming! It was also spotlessly clean and very comfortable! Marshall was so kind and friendly and made us feel right at home! The grounds are absolutely breath taking and the location was great for local eats and only 20 minutes from Galway. Cannot recommend this AIRBNB enough!

The location is just outside Kinvara. The place was comfortable and super clean. As stated in the description, there is a sloping ceiling above the bed, watch your head. The shower was fabulous and had lots of pressure. I came in exhausted from my activities and so thankful for a comfortable bed.

We had a very peaceful and relaxing few days at Greg and Annie’s beautiful place in the trees on Mountshannon. Our hosts were helpful and friendly, their knowledge and enthusiasm for the area were an encouragement, to explore more than just our main objective (which was to visit Holy Island Inis Cealtra on Loch Derg). Also… best shower ever!

Fionas home was immaculate and perfect for what we needed. Lovely touches such as stove fire and groceries upon arrival. Fiona responded quickly to any questions. I would highly recommend this beautiful home for anyone looking to visit Connemara.

Muireanns place was quaint and peaceful but still a short drive into downtown Galway. She was extremely helpful with tips and tricks and local recommendations. Would highly recommend!

We loved our stay here! First, the house was so clean and comfortable, and it had everything we could have needed. The place was very peaceful as well as a great location for driving around exploring the beautiful area. James was friendly and responsive, and he gave us great recommendations. We basically followed the itinerary he suggested for our couple days visit and it was perfect. We also recommend the nearby farmer’s market. A great first trip to Ireland!

Seamus was absolutely fantastic host. From the moment we arrived he made us feel right at home.. provided us with good recommendations for local bits and was just super kind and genuine. We really enjoyed our stay and I can't recommend Seamus as a host enough. Thanks a million for making our weekend a success! 😊

Good rural, quiet location close to nice seaside villages and also Dunguaire Castle. Less than an hour drive from Cliffs of Moher. Suggest some detailed instructions on how to locate the property would be helpful for future guests.

We felt right at home, it was peaceful and we enjoyed the stay. It was a family gathering therefore price compared to other places was really good, commuting easy. Thank you! x

It was a beautiful area and everything was very clean. I would definitely rent from her again.

Irene's place is a hidden gem- walkable distance to a fabulous local gastropub, it was just what we were looking for, and Irene couldn't have been a better host!

Brilliant stay. Breege was a lovely host and very accommodating. Highly recommend to stay here 👌

Beautiful nicely decorated cozy chalet with a lot of amenities to keep you comfortable. Mary Anne and Peadar were lovely hosts who also made sure that we had a beautifully lit christmas tree and decorations for the festive season and made sure we stayed well stocked up with wood pellets for the stove fire to keep warm for the cold winter nights. Thank you for the perfect stay.

What an enchanting place! Proper home from home. I absolutely loved my stay here. Peaceful, everything you need. I was also left a cheeseboard and biscuits, milk & cookies 🍪. Super comfy, loved playing the records every evening, especially Bob Marley 👌🏼 100% superb. I’m not sure how it could be improved?! 💝

My friend and I had a wonderful stay at Dana and Ian’s guesthouse! The home is beautifully furnished, spotless, and set on a stunning property that made for such a peaceful retreat. We had everything we needed, including our own private entrance, which made the space feel like a true home away from home. Dana and Ian were incredibly kind and responsive throughout our stay—we couldn’t have asked for better hosts. Highly recommend this stay to anyone visiting the area!

Maire is an incredible host and made me feel right at home. The accommodation is beautiful and in a fabulous area. 10/10, will definitely book again

We had a wonderful stay here. Loved meeting Sadie and her family and many friendly animals. The barn was decorated beautifully, felt cosy and chic. Lots of personal touches which were a treat. The kitchen was fully stocked and access to a lovely garden. Everything was super clean and lots of amenities such as soap, shampoo hair dryer etc. Such a peaceful stay!

Wow!! Please stay here ❤️ Martha greeted us in person, walked us through the home’s s functionality and gave us time to ask questions about the area and gave helpful responses that made our vacation that much more special. By her recommendation, we used Aran Island Ferries in Galway to visit Inis Mór island (and their unfenced cliffs). Also, seaside views of the Cliffs of Moher. Touristy, yes. But a €55 ferry ride + a badass críu (prepare yourself for seasickness & sit in the back of the boat) & €25 guided van tour with an informative driver who provided opportunities for photos and roaming was TOTALLY WORTH IT!! Her space was hard to say goodbye to. So comfortable for 4 friends. Beautiful and private. Check out time on a Sunday was 12pm ( easier to leave unstressed). 30 minutes or less to Galway, but there were even beautiful walking areas a few minutes away along Galway Bay. Martha even took the time to reach out and ask how our visit was after we’d checked out. Complete kindnes

Alison was a great host! She gave us the insider info on the best things to do. The place was gorgeous and we were welcomed with snacks and a smile.

Aine's place was lovely and she was quick to respond to any questions. Overall we had a great family Easter break.

Perfect stopover for 2 days on a trip with my mom. We needed the washer / dryer after lots of hiking, so we were grateful for that! It’s very calm and peaceful. You can log into your own accounts on the SmartTV to watch Netflix, etc. Note well the instructions for check-in that describe where to turn (don’t turn onto grassy dirty road as SatNav suggests). Cooking supplies were decent but if you have specific things you want to cook, I’d check with Patrick first to ensure you’ll have what you neee.

The studio was perfect for our needs and served as a great base for this region. The apartment was well furnished and allowed us to do laundry. We ended up driving to town each day, but I do think it would be reasonable to walk to Lisdoonvarna.

Super nice private house with pure nature. The car is a must, but you can easily get to a full-day parking lot near the university and from there directly by bus to the city, so it's great. 😉 Super easy to plan with day trips to Connemara or the Cliffs of Moher. Karina's house is super clean and well maintained and has everything to offer. We felt very comfortable. ☺️
