Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Beara Peninsula

Martin and Bridgette were excellent hosts. 3 things we look for are cleanliness, comfort and quiet. We got these in abundance. The view from the house was stunning and seeing all the deer in the garden was very special. Good base for touring the penninsulas with great food in town. I highly recommend if you want to find peace and serenity. Thank you, Martin and Bridgette for being so kind, responsive and helpful. XXX

Absolute Empfehlung! Ein kleines Paradies in einer beeindruckenden wunderschönen Gegend von Irland. Idylle, Tiere direkt vor der Haustür (Hund, Katzen, Ponys, Esel), eine sehr gastfreundliche Gastgeberin und ein super ausgestattetes modernes Cottage! Optimal um die Gegend am Ring of Kerry zu erkunden. Wir waren begeistert und würden es jedem empfehlen! Es sollte lediglich bedacht werden, dass das Cottage ein wenig abseits von der nächsten Ortschaft Sneem liegt (ca. 10 Minuten Fahrzeit). Dafür hat man absolute Ruhe und einen umwerfenden Blick auf eine wunderschöne Landschaft. Es fiel uns schwer zu gehen.

Lavinia’s house was wonderful. At the perfect half-way spot on the Ring of Kerry. We stepped out the front door and saw the most beautiful starry sky at night. So close to Darrynane Beach, our favorite beach in all of Ireland. We enjoyed the hike behind the house, with the most beautiful views. The house is clutter free with lots of space for our personal things, perfectly clean and has lots of farm house charm. Both bathrooms worked well, plenty of hot water. My kids loved playing fetch with Holly. Plenty of space in the well stocked kitchen for family meals. We highly recommend!

We spent four unforgettable nights at Seaview House and couldn’t have asked for a better stay. The panoramic views of Derrynane Bay and the Skellig Islands were absolutely breathtaking, and the peaceful setting made it the perfect retreat. The house was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed to cook several meals at home. After long days of hiking and sightseeing, we really appreciated the comfy beds and hot showers. We loved watching the sheep graze just outside and taking the short walk to the nearby pier, where we met friendly locals and even found some sea glass on the rocky beach. The location is ideal—close to Caherdaniel and beautiful beaches, but still quiet and relaxing. With easy access to the Kerry Way, Skellig tours, and nearby historic sites, this home is a perfect base for exploring the area. We truly loved our time here and would highly recommend Seaview House to anyone looking for a scenic and peaceful getaway on the Ring of Kerry.

We had a lovely peaceful stay at Rita's, it was super easy to get to and has stunning views. Beds were super comfy and the sun room couch was a slice of heaven!

Das Haus liegt wunderschön oberhalb der Bantry Bay. Sehr individuell und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Es ist alles da, was man braucht. Der Garten ist liebevoll gepflegt und gut nutzbar. Die Landschaft rund um White Water lädt zum Wandern ein. Vom Knockboolteenag hat man einen fantastischen Blick auf die Bantry Bay und Dunmanus Bay. Sheep’s Head und Mizen Head sind gut zu erreichen und auf jeden Fall einen Ausflug wert. Gavin‘s Haus ist sehr zu empfehlen, er ist als Gastgeber top. Danke für die schönen Tage bei Dir.

From the moment we stepped onto the path to the cottage, we were transported to a place of tranquility and beauty. Greeted by yellow and red roses, and an incredible view of pasture, harbor, and hills, we wished we had more time to spend here. Shelagh and Joe are responsive and attentive hosts. They were generous with ideas on memorable walks from the cottage and where to eat out. The cottage includes all the amenities needed. It’s cozy, clean, and welcoming. While outdoors on property, we spent most of time between the comfortable patio and the bench by the Rectory, each with spectacular views

Aimee puts such a nice personal touch on everything available at the boathouse. Not to mention the location is a beautiful private spot close enough to visit all the wonderful places Southern Ireland has to offer. Would absolutely stay here again and strongly recommend to all considering her place.

great location. beautiful surroundings. we visited on motor bike such a great base to go off and explore. safe and secure parking. very helpful host and nothing was too much.

Just spent 4 nights at Tessa's place, but could have spent lots more. Very nicely decorated, clean and comfortable, with all the facilities needed, including a washer and dryer. Not far into Kenmare, probably walkable for most people (maybe 20-30 minutes. ) The Beara peninsula is lovely, and Derreen Gardens is definitely worth a visit. Plenty of places to visit at no great distance (Kilarney, Sneem, Whitestrand Bay etc.)

Shirley and John’s place was amazing! The location was stunning, peaceful and we felt right at home. Has been our favorite place to stay so far. Thank you Shirley and John for sharing your home with us. If we ever come back we will definitely stay here again.

Logement très pratique, spacieux et confortable avec tout le nécessaire. Nous avons passé un excellent séjour! Nous recommandons!

Mary was a true delight and the space was ideal for travellers. All the comforts of home and extremely comfortable. Highly recommend!

We had a great time. Anne was lovely, really helpful and provided great recommendations for local attractions. The apartment was very spacious, and matched the photos. Anne provided a very generous welcome pack which was greatly appreciated after a long drive. The area was very scenic and peaceful, and a great access point for the Beara peninsular. I would highly recommend staying here.

Great location, very clean and comfortable with a lovely spacious upstairs bedroom with a view. Wonderful hosts with excellent communication Would recommend

Stunning! We stayed one night with my wife and father as we were touring Ireland. The place is amazing, the house is big and very spacious. Everything was very clean and everything worked perfectly. The kitchen is fully equipped in case you want to cook or prepare breakfast, etc. The bathrooms are also large and comfortable. I definitely plan to come back and highly recommend it!

Abbiamo trascorso una piacevole e tranquilla due giorni a casa di William & Joanne! Posto immerso nel verde con splendida vista sulla campagna circostante tra fiori, il canto degli uccelli e il piacevo belare delle tipiche pecore irlandesi! La casa è molto spaziosa e luminosa, fornita di ogni cosa si possa avere bisogno soprattutto in cucina! William è molto simpatico e alla mano, ci ha accolto la sera tardi come fossero le 8 del mattino: inossidabile spirito irlandese! Che dire di più?! Consigliatissimo!

A “must” to stay at! Julie was the ultimate host! Any request was not an issue for her. The place was spotlessly clean, with easy to use amenities. It looked lovely and it felt lovely! We did not want for anything! It was an easy 30 minute stroll to the town centre too. Highly recommended!

A cosy but spacious little nest surrounded by gorgeous scenery The location is absolutely fantastic as it is so close to the town center of Killarney, the entrance to the ring of Kerry and an hour away from Dingle, which was our next stop Mike and Sinead were the most amazing hosts as they provided us with lots of information and recommendations Highly recommend

What can we say . We got there very late on the Friday night well it was after midnight night . Where we were meet by a very pleasant host . Showed us around where we were staying . Very clean and warm even give us some milk for a cuppa. The places is set in a beautiful setting .

Miranda was a great host! Very friendly and easy to communicate with. Her place is a hidden gem. Easy to get on the Ring of Kerry and beautiful walks in the area. Thank you Miranda for the wonderful stay ❤️

Bridie was fantastic, met us at check-in and suggested where to go for dinner - she also helped us map our route to the Cliffs of Moher the next day via the ferry. She was so kind and we felt right at home. The cottage is fantastic. I just wish we spent more than one night!

An excellent stay! This was a great home base while visiting the Skelligs - a quiet spot but still an easy walk into Cahersiveen, and a short drive to Portmagee where most of the boats leave from. The space was very clean and just as described. The unit is downstairs from a larger home, but felt fully separate and I didn’t hear a peep from anyone else in the building. Having both laundry and the kitchen was convenient - both worked well and were nicely stocked. John was also quickly responsive to any questions. Overall, no complaints at all and highly recommend a stay here if in the area!

Staying with Carmel is OG Airbnb, where there is actually a local host not an off-site corporation who owns the property you’re staying in. Carmel was wonderful and so welcoming. I was traveling alone and I really appreciate when it feels like I could reach out to the host if I have trouble without being a bother. The place itself is spectacular. They also have an actually stocked kitchen with more than just salt and pepper, which is soooo grand because you don’t have to spend money on an entire bottle of oil or butter or jam for a couple of quick meals. I hope to go back one day!
