Cottage holiday rentals in Goleen

My family stayed at Esther's place for 4 nights. We had the most wonderful time! The house has beautiful views of the ocean and is a short walk from both Inchydoney beach and the hotel. The house was clean and spacious with room for the whole family including our dog. Esther was welcoming and provided lots of great recommendations for the local area. We would definitely recommend Esther's place to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday by the beach!

Had a lovely few days away staying in Kate's accommodation. She was very helpful and great to deal with. The accommodation was perfect for a quiet getaway and met all of our needs, would recommend to a friend.

We had a wonderful stay! The house was absolutely perfect for our family of two adults and three children — clean, modern, and very comfortable. Everything was so thoughtfully prepared, from the fresh scones on arrival to the local ice cream, milk, and butter, which were lovely touches that made us feel right at home. The hot tub was a real treat and the perfect way to relax after a busy day exploring the area. There’s so much to do nearby — our family especially enjoyed paddle boarding and kayaking in Rosscarbery. Clonakilty is a charming town with great spots for shopping, coffee, and lunch, and the Clonakilty Pudding factory tour was a fun and unique experience. We’d definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and well-equipped base to explore this beautiful part of Ireland.

Didn’t want to leave ☺️

Had such an amazing stay here. Beautiful home with loads of lovely touches like the candles. Was so cosy as well. Noreen was also so helpful with instructions and responded straight away to any questions we had. Wish we had booked to stay longer!

This was a magical stay for our family. Sarah was so friendly and responsive. The location of the property is one of the best I have experienced. Views were super, hot tub was a hugh bonus and we availed of it every day. You could walk for a swim, snorkel and to the pub for dinner and drinks and the locals were very friendly in the pub. Highly recommend and is my favourite airbnb so far.

Eileen and Robert were perfect hosts. They could not have been more helpful and the cottage was spotlessly clean. The location was as excellent for touring and our hosts had given us excellent advise of where to visit. This was our first Air B@B and everything was perfect. We will definitely be going back in the future.

The cottage was lovely and their dog (Bear) is delightful.

Fabulous location and the cottage so cosy. Helen was a wonderful host.

Annette was a great host from start to finish. Very responsive, attentive, and a very friendly person in general! A welcome hamper for the first breakfast was there for us when we arrived, which was a lovely touch! The house was as described, very clean and cosy, and an excellent launch pad for travelling around the county. Has all the utensils you need for cooking too, which we made good use of. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants something private, has dogs, and wants to see the local sites. Thanks again, Annette!!!

Mairéad was the friendliest and most helpful host, giving us suggestions of what to see and do, even booking a table at a local restaurant for us. Even more special were the welcoming scones, butter and jam on the table and Mairéad turning up to greet us with an armful of beautiful, freshly cut garden flowers! Jenny the donkey and the local pusscat that joined us on our walks were an added bonus! All in all a lovely, homely cottage in a stunning location… highly recommend!

The most beautiful place and the most accommodating host we have stayed with in Ireland or the UK. They went the extra mile with small gestures to make us feel welcome. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Thanks Mag and Eugene for a lovely stay. Lovely surroundings and views, birds, reindeer, sheep and doggies. Very comfortable, cosy and peaceful. Hopefully we can visit again soon.

Colette’s place is stunning and was probably the nicest place we stayed in during our trip. The amenities were amazing and it was well stocked with everything you needed. The attention to detail was on-point. Colette brought fresh baked scones for breakfast- still hot out of the oven and the fresh eggs were amazing. Finding the place was a little challenging, but Colette responded in minutes to meet us and offer assistance. The real downside was finding out we were a week early for the hot tub room opening!! The live stock right outside the door was very cool for my daughter and added to the homey feeling!! Highly recommend!!

We absolutely loved our stay at Hanna's Cottage. From the moment we walked in, it felt like home. The furniture and all the little touches really create an atmosphere, we found we did not want to leave and just enjoyed watching the view and the boats on the water. The cottage is beautiful and warm and cosy. We went for a lot of walks in the area, its really beautiful there and a lot of nice places to visit. Vi kommer gjerne tilbake! :)

We had a glorious few days in Julie’s beautiful cottage. We stayed there many years ago and the cottage and gardens were as lovely and as well kept as we remember. Lots of beautiful walks and cycles from our doorstep, not to mention the views from the cottage. We were sorry to leave but hope to return again.

Absolutely loved staying at Karin's place! The attention to detail was truly impressive - from the thoughtful welcome treats to the carefully curated amenities, it was clear that Karin had put a lot of love and care into creating a special experience for guests. The space itself was beautifully decorated and perfectly maintained, making it feel like a home away from home. Karin was also super responsive and accommodating, making the whole stay feel seamless and stress-free. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a comfortable and welcoming place to stay - thanks Karin for a wonderful experience!

What a fantastic spacious property and beautiful location. We had everything we needed for our 4 night stay, including the best weather. Catherine and Michael were very welcoming and it was lovely to share a bit of banter with Michael!

Absolutely a ten! We feel at home, the location is incredible, both for visiting the surroundings and the peninsulas and for relaxing in the silence. They welcomed us with great kindness, even helped us with a problem with our bikes and left us spray oil!! No comments on the breakfast basket they left us Definitely a place I will recommend to friends and family

Stunning setting and ideal accommodation overlooking the mountains and adjacent Killarney National Park. Could not have asked for a better hostess in Eileen, who was always helpful and friendly and who pointed us in all the right directions for a perfect holiday. Throw in three gentle pet donkeys and a farm cat, who could ask for more? Bliss!

The location is beautiful, we loved how quiet it was at night. And still so close to the venue we had to go, and the town centre. We all loved being welcomed by the dogs! We think is the most complete place we stayed in Ireland so far, the kitchen had absolutely everything you could have forgotten to bring for cooking, plenty of tableware, and being honest the features and design I'd love in my own. The beds were comfortable, the wardrobe is huge. The bathroom has a beautiful design, and we didn't even unpacked our own shampoo and gel, as it had plenty of it all. The laundry room is very convenient, the house was warm, with good insulation. It was a very short, lovely stay, super comfortable and we hope it is available on our next visit to Killarney.

The Green Door Cottage was just as expected, clean and comfortable plus close to the downtown area of shops and pubs. There are many things to do at nearby Killarney National Park, as well as day trips to Cork, Kinsale, and the Dingle Peninsula. We wish that we could have had more time in the area! Tony and Sinead are extremely responsive to any message. We would definitely recommend staying at the Green Door Cottage🤗
