Holiday rentals with breakfast in Lough Derg

Kay was extremely friendly and welcoming. The home was spotless the space was comfortable. Upon arrival we had jetlag and took a nap that passed dinner hour. We awoke hungry but to late to go out. Kay was so generous to provide us with a few refreshments and provisions to tie us over till morning. That was well beyond expectations. A gentle suggestion would be for the host to post their house rules in the listing. With a conservation mindset, the host suggested a very short time limit on showers, which was impossible to achieve if cleansing hair and full body. Otherwise, an absolute exceptional stay.

Best night of sleep I’ve had while traveling in Europe. Thanks, Anne! Great host.

We really lived Rita’s place. We felt very much at home and would have loved to be able to stay longer. It was so relaxing and she has a beautiful quiet space overlooking her back garden

We enjoyed our stay at the Turret Lodge. The place was large and homey …perfect for our family group. My grandchildren loved running in the large backyard! Anna was very kind and flexible with our schedule. We so appreciated that!

Breda and her husband are very caring hosts who immediately put us at ease. The stay was very pleasant and we highly recommend "the cozy escape".

Joanne was amazing and very friendly,the house is lovely and it’s pretty big too,big comfy beds,everything you need it’s all there thanks Joanne for having us.5 stars all day

We had a lovely stay in May 2025. This is our second time staying and we will definitely be booking here again in the future when we are in this area. It is located within easy walking distance of the town centre with a good selection of supermarkets, shops, pubs and restaurants. Shiela the owner was friendly and very helpful with any questions or requests we had. Overall we had a lovely time.

We loved our stay at this little cottage. It's such a gem. It's beautifully decorated inside, perfectly restored with character and charm. It was spotless and clean. All of the beds were comfortable and bathrooms worked perfectly. I'd recommend this Airbnb to anyone visiting Adare!

This was such a FIND! Truly the best place we stayed in our entire time in Ireland. Shawn’s home is gorgeous, with huge windows that overlook the harbor. We felt right at home the moment we arrived—our host even left out dairy free creamer for us because we mentioned we were lactose intolerant. Such a sweet and thoughtful touch. The place itself is in the heart of Galway. Quay street is a 5 minute walk, and there are incredible restaurants and bars within an arm’s reach. The place is also on the harbor so you can catch a ferry to Aran Islands right outside your door. This is a prime location! But most importantly, Shawn & his family go above and beyond to ensure your stay in Galway is exceptional. We would love to return to Galway in the future and would 100% pick this place to stay every time. We loved every second!

We enjoyed our stay at John and Margaret's and had everything needed for a lovely, comfortable stay. We appreciated all the extras that were left for us to prepare breakfast. The quiet country setting was just what we needed after a busy day of traveling. Margaret was very friendly greeting us upon arrival. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to stay in the area.

Only a short stay but a truly lovely experience. The unit was spacious, comfortable, quiet and beautifully presented. The generosity of the breakfast that was provided was amazing - and delicious! Highly recommend Jan and Sandy New Zealand

Comfortable, friendly and easy to follow instructions for getting there.

I stayed at Thereze's in Kinvara for almost three months while doing an internship in Galway. I grew really fond of the place, the neighborhood, and Thereze, of course. The apartment had everything I needed, if not, everything was provided by Thereze. It is spacious, very cosy, and tastefully furnished. I often sat in the garden for tanning or skipped rope in front of the patio. There is enough space for cars. Kinvara is lovely village, and very busy! There a a few restaurants for breakfast and dinner, coffee shops, and places for take-away. A big supermarket and gas station can be found as well. It was a nice 25-minute walk into the village with a great view. Galway is about 40 minutes by car or bus. Thereze is an amazing and kind host. She will do everything so you feel comfortable and make the best out of your trip. She made my stay worthwhile and I am very grateful for and to her!

We had a great time at Ronnie’s house. The apartment was spacious, the bed was comfortable, and Ronnie was a very pleasant host. We would be happy to stay with him again!

Great location, very handy for Galway Folk Festival , appreciate the secure parking, all was as expected.

We had a nice stay at Niamh's. It was a great location for visiting friends in Portumna and a quiet retreat after a long day. Very peaceful location for a good night's sleep. Everything was very clean and checking in was a breeze as Niamh met us when we arrived. The only thing I was missing was a throw or extra blanket on the couch to snuggle under while watching TV or reading a book but that certainly isn't a big deal.

Our stay was beyond amazing!! Orla and Chris are extremely hospitable hosts and we felt welcome and right at home immediately! No detail was overlooked, every inch of their home was clean, tidy, and comfortable! We HIGHLY! recommend 🧡

Bernie and her partner are great host, very caring and humane. I will definitely always visit anytime I am in town.

Lorraine was so kind and welcoming. She was very responsive to messages and accommodating. I had an excellent stay and would love to stay again. The scones were delicious!

Staying at Nora’s place and meeting her and Kitty was one of the highlights of our trip to Ireland. The most friendly and accommodating of hosts, the two of them went out of their way to make us feel at home. To add to that, they are located just minutes from all the sites in the city center while still retaining a sense of peace and privacy. We’ll remember our visit for a long time. Do yourself a favor and book with them if you’re lucky enough to be passing through beautiful Galway. I promise you won’t regret it!

Staying here was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The moment we drove through the gates, our jaws literally dropped—the castle is absolutely breathtaking in person! From start to finish, everything about our stay was magical. Our hosts were so warm and welcoming, and even gave us a personal tour of the castle grounds after a delicious breakfast. Our room was immaculate, cozy, and full of charm—we loved every second of it. As an added bonus, we were greeted by their adorable local cat, Elizabeth, who instantly made us feel at home. The location is also fantastic—just a short walk to several great restaurants, making it easy to explore and enjoy the local cuisine without needing to drive. I can’t recommend this place enough, 10/10!

This is an excellent spot to stay in while in Galway. Marie Louise is a wonderful host. She gave excellent recommendations for local places and another place to explore an hour away. We would definitely stay again

We were welcomed by Anne's daughter and Paula was very friendly, helpful & welcoming! The area is quiet and friendly, the house is very cozy and private and we had super wonderful breakfast! Ann and Paula both were offering the best service, were very proactive and were looking up for us, if we needed anything. We'd recommend this house and would come back another time. Ann & Paula - all the best for you! Thank you!

Kathryn is a wonderful host and very flexible. Her home is cozy and welcoming. Breakfasts were delicious - her homemade scones were great. I highly recommend this airbnb.
