Cottage holiday rentals in River Shannon

Had a magical stay. So beautiful and relaxing. Everything was as listed. Hosts provided a lovely cheese and meat selection along with all the necessary breakfast items. Within easy reach of Nenagh and Lough Derg. Cannot wait to have another stay.

Grace's house was a real treat! Nestled away in the trees overlooking the river made it feel so private and peaceful. The house itself was so cosy, clean and inviting but had plenty of space and different areas to relax. The grounds were amazing and the kids had a ball discovering the swings, hottub and reading shed. The whole place was magical and we were sad to leave. Grace was very responsive to any communication and made us feel so welcome. The house location was a great base for some of the stunning sights Donegal has to offer and we were very close to many beautiful sandy beaches. This house was the best airbnb we have ever stayed in! We can't wait to come back, thanks so much Grace

My partner, doggy and myself had an incredible time at Catrionas. We stayed for two nights and sat in both evenings and enjoyed the amenities. Catriona has three lovely dogs and so many cute farm animals - we were lucky enough to see baby bell as a 3 week old lamb. Most importantly Catriona was very accommodating of our dog who can be a bit funny (being very kind), she was a great host. Her place is the most perfect tranquil piece of heaven! Would recommend it to everyone :)

Words cant describe how wonderful this place was. It feels a miracle that money could buy an experience like that. Stargazing in the hot tub, talking to the beautiful cows, drinking the wonderful prosecco provided and looking at all the family photos and history of the cottage, reading through the guestbook. I'd come back a thousand times if I could. Thank you so much.

The BEST Airbnb we have ever stayed at. Eamonn is the most gracious host. communication was excellent- the best we have ever experienced by a host. He takes pride in his gorgeous cottage. we loved spending our family time there with the most stunning views. The cottage has everything you need and its all TOP class! like a 5 star hotel yet feels like a secluded luxury home! Can't wait to come back!

We had a great stay at this Airbnb. The space was very clean, and the bed was very comfortable. The wood-burning hot tub was a highlight—though it took about 2–3 hours of tending the fire to heat up, it was incredibly relaxing once ready. The surrounding ponds added a peaceful, scenic touch, and we really enjoyed walking around the area. Peter was a responsive and helpful host, especially when I accidentally left something behind—he kindly let me return to pick it up. Overall, a lovely and memorable stay.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – A Magical Stay for a Very Special Birthday We had the most unforgettable stay at this beautiful cottage in Ireland to celebrate my mum’s 70th birthday, and it was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The cottage itself is charming, spotless, and incredibly well-equipped — the perfect blend of cozy and luxurious. The setting is peaceful and scenic, with breathtaking countryside views that added to the sense of escape and relaxation we were hoping for. The hot tub was a real highlight — soaking under the stars with a glass of wine after a day of exploring was magical. My mum was thrilled, and it truly made her birthday feel special and indulgent. Our hosts went above and beyond to make our stay feel personal and welcoming. Thoughtful touches like fresh flowers, a welcome basket, and helpful local tips made all the difference. They even helped us arrange a few special surprises for my mum, which we’re incredibly grateful for. We couldn’t have asked for a more per

Beautiful location. The cottage was really cosy and the hot tub was so lovely and relaxing. Would definitely recommend The Milking Parlour to anyone looking for a quiet, weekend away.

If you’re looking for a rural place in the country side of Ireland this is the place. It’s a small cottage on farm in the rolling hills. It had gorgeous views to look at and no city distractions whatsoever. It does have internet which is very nice and there is a small town with pubs and a grocery store 10 minutes away. It does have a washer, but we did not see a dryer so just keep that in mind. It was an amazing place and I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants a country stay.

My family loved our stay at Ardcarne Lodge. Brian and his parents were helpful and welcoming, with lots of local recommendations for restaurants and sightseeing, and the lodge itself was utterly charming. We also appreciated the fresh flowers, and the grocery essentials in the fridge. Our stay here was one of the highlights of our trip to Ireland!

A beautiful location and cottage, the wood burner makes it suitable for all weather conditions, and William was kind enough to restock the wood when we ran out. He also offered recommendations for walks and hikes

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.

Bridie was the perfect host—warm, welcoming, and incredibly kind. Her lovely retriever, Charlie, was an absolute delight and made the stay even more special. I would highly recommend and would definitely return!

What a beautiful little cottage, we really enjoyed our stay here! Mary had the fire lighting upon arrival and the fridge/presses stocked with all the necessities. The bathroom also had shampoo, shower gel etc and a hair dryer was available. We absolutely loved our stay, and will definitely be returning!! Thank you Mary 😊

Charming cottage with lots of character! Lovely bed linen and plenty of towels available as well as shower gel and shampoo which was great to have. Tea and scones on arrival which was a lovely touch. Diana was on hand for anything we needed - we would definitely recommend and will hopefully return for another trip.

Ciaran is a great host. The cottage is more spacious than it appears in the photos and the surrounding area has everything one could possibly need for a relaxing break away from it all! We will definitely be returning soon and will bring fishing rods!

It was an amazing place view was amazing Sarah is very responsible and available every time all over good just some toiletries were missing like body wash and toothpaste but I am sure if I would have asked she might provide but was not staying longer so I ddnt bother her …overall very nice thank you 😊

This was the perfect location for a relaxed holiday. Lovely, comfortable, spacious and well furnished, the house has great views out along the coast that could be enjoyed from the patio and outside as well as the living room. Comfortable bedrooms and a great kitchen/ dining area. A great base to explore the beautiful surrounding area and Caroline was a brilliant host. Really helpful and friendly. Definitely recommended and I hope to return one day. Thank you.

We spent two weeks in this wonderful cottage and felt at home from day one. The historic cottage is very cozy and very well equipped. Our children really enjoyed the garden around the house. The location is perfect with a rental car, as there are many excursion destinations in the area. And you can walk to the beautiful Crushoa Pier. Paul and Dympna gave great tips and were always very helpful and friendly. We would come back anytime!

Des and his place are simply the BEST! We felt like we were staying with a family friend. The house was gorgeous and the setting so peaceful and serene. There were even cows, horses, and ponies right outside our bedroom windows!!

It has been a wonderful stay. Clean,beautiful view,loads of privacy and two great welcoming dogs. Gerry gave us a warm welcome and explained everything. Really took the time. I recommand this air bnb. Everything is there. Close to Corofin where there’s a shop and a fantastic place to drink coffee and are having the best cinnamon buns I’ve ever tasted. Close to the Burren information centre. Close to Ennistymon etc. And after being around all day and coming back to farm there was calmness and peace.

The Shed is a wonderful place to stay, Noirin is such a great host, welcoming and makes you feel special, she was genuinely interested in us. On arrival we had a welcome supply of milk, bread, eggs, condiments and a few biscuits. There are supermarkets but not close by so these were very helpful initially. The accomodation is really clean and comfortable, the beds are super comfy and we could not find fault with anything. There is so much to do in the Burren that one week isn't quite enough. Our visit was based on the rare wild flowers which we found quite a few. The Cliffs of Moher was very busy but spectacular, just a tip, book entrance online it's much cheaper. Other worthy visits Ailwee cave, Mullaghmore hill (wear decent footwear for the rocky limestone paths). On the whole a fabulous holiday in a beautiful part of Ireland. Thanks Noirin.

What a pleasant surprise in Ireland! Julia was a fantastic host and was very responsive. The drive was easy to find and the place was cozy. The place looked just like the photos and Julia took time to put together instructions on how to use all of the amenities available. I plan on coming back to Ireland in the future and would love to stay here again!

A beautiful cottage surrounded by a large peaceful garden on the shore of Lough Arrow. Bird songs all day, with kingfisher, swans, willow warblers and tree-creeper making an appearance. We took the short drive to see the ancient tombs of Carrowkeel and stunning views over Sligo. Lots to do and see and excellent restaurants in nearby Boyle. Had a wonderful paddle in kayaks at Lough Key. And the sun shone endlessly! Great weekend! We'll be back!
