Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Galway

This may have been the house that made us want to move to Ireland. The cottage is gorgeous and right next door to the very kind Sophia who welcomed us with several treats and gave great recommendations for what to see. We loved Kylemore Abbey and the easy access to nearby beaches, particular'y Dog's Bay Beach. Roundstone and Clifden offered nice pubs and cafes. And there was nothing better than returning to the cottage that is so tastefully decorated and that has a huge eat in kitchen, really nice living room with fireplace, and a visiting cat named Bandit. I could not recommend it more!

excellent location. check in was seamless. house had all the amenities I needed and more. couldn't fault anything. Will definitely rebook if I need to stay in Loughrea again

Stayed at Anna Marie’s for 4 days. Attended a wedding at Vaughn’s and the house was awesome! The home was well appointed with everything we needed. Anna Marie even stocked the fridge with everything we needed for breakfast included eggs, bread, milk and cheese. We were two couple travelling and there was enough sleeping arrangements that we were all able to have a bed to ourselves (one on a sofa bed; which was extremely comfortable). The patio area outside was excellent as the weather allowed us to eat our meals outside.

The Roundhouse is amazing, almost certainly the best Airbnb we have stayed in. The location is incredible for a peaceful get away, with beautiful surroundings. There is a jetty with ocean access for kayaking (to a seal colony!) right on the doorstep. The house is finished to an exceptional standard. There is plenty of space and the amenities are very high end. The bedrooms were extremely comfortable, and the kitchen had everything you could need and more. Bernie and Val were perfect hosts, making us feel welcome and going above and beyond throughout to make our stay special. If I could praise it more, I would! We hope to be back.

Great place in a great location! Really spacious and was easy to get into and settle in! Located perfectly to walk to all the stuff to do in the area and the host was extremely helpful to give tips and help on anything around!

My friend and I had the most lovely stay with David and Cheryl. They made us feel very at home and cared for with their recommendations for what to do in the area and thoughtful conversations over delicious coffee + breakfast. The home was beautiful and very comfortable + cozy. We hope to be back!

We truly didn’t have enough time to enjoy everything this amazing home has to offer! The views are absolutely breathtaking — sheep grazing just outside the windows, with a stunning mountain backdrop that feels straight out of a storybook. Killary Fjord and Clifden are close by and make for a perfect day trip, offering spectacular scenery and excellent food. The house is spacious, beautifully maintained, and stocked with every amenity you could need for a comfortable stay. Margaret was incredibly kind and helpful! We’re already dreaming of coming back!

We felt truly at home here. The peaceful atmosphere gave us space to unwind, connect, and slow down from the usual pace of life. From the cozy corners to the quiet moments, this house helped center us around simple joys and really enjoy our stay on Inishmore.

This is a charming home! Loved the stone cottage and the roses that were in bloom, amazing! The place was so well stocked, thoughtful gift basket, amazing crockery and really everything one needed in the kitchen. The kitchen and bathrooms were super clean and modern. The house is filled with lovely books. The host was so responsive when we got a bit lost. The house felt like a home. Much loved. However the living room needs a bit of Do over. The sofas comfy as they were are a bit lofty and dated one couldn’t really see the TV and made the room feel really small. The water pressure in the showers was great. We really had a great time at Cathy’s place.

We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage very comfortable, clean, warm and well presented and communication was excellent.

We loved our stay at this idyllic location ! You are immersed in nature ..animals, bird song , wild flower meadow and the Turlough. The Cabins are have a simple design led cosy vibe . Off grid but everything you need for a relaxing stay. Roy is a friendly and attentive host. Location is fantastic ..close to Kinvarra . We enjoyed a pizza and pint at Tully’s after a good walk in the Burren . Both the Cabins and village are dog friendly . We will definitely return to this special place !

Absolutely stunning. Adult family of 6 of us stayed along with 2 babies under 1 and a big dog and we had the most incredible time. The cottage itself is idyllic - huge, beautifully decorated and the best socialising space. We had bad weather the whole week but even so the outdoor area was perfect. Photos don’t do it justice - wouldn’t recommend anywhere and we will certainly be back again.

My family were ‘blown away’ on arrival. En-suites in each of the three double bedrooms plus a separate bathroom. Comfy beds with crisp cotton bedding and cosy duvets. Electric blankets in the two downstairs bedrooms, a top of the range duvet upstairs to snuggle into. The kitchen and utility area are well equipped with washing machine & tumble-dryer. Richard was always quick to respond to our queries and the housekeeper lives nearby. The secluded location along a bumpy lane is off the famous Sky Road with its stunning views. The views give plenty of scope for amazing photo opportunities. It’s a 15 minute drive to and from Clifden for shopping/restaurants. There is plenty to do and see in Connemara and don’t set too much store by the weather forecasts. It can change rapidly from a heavy shower to bright sunshine in a moment. It all adds to the beauty of the area and Waters Edge is ideally located to appreciate it. We loved our time here.

Amazing location; peaceful and beautiful by the loch.

We had a wonderful couple of days at Janet's apartment. very clean, private and perfectly situated in beautiful surroundings. Would highly recommend and we will be back sometime in the future.

Beautiful spot in a nice quiet area which is perfect for exploring such a beautiful part of the country The Airbnb itself was nice and cozy and very well maintained

Hawthorn House is a stunning and peaceful retreat nestled in the heart of Ros Cíde, offering an authentic experience of Connemara's rugged beauty. From the moment we arrived, it was evident that the property was carefully designed, and meticulously maintained, providing a warm and inviting atmosphere. The house is situated deep in the idyllic landscape, far from the hustle and bustle - a perfect choice for those seeking tranquillity and immersion in nature. Every amenity was in excellent condition, from the fully equipped kitchen to the cosy living spaces that were perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. Irene, the house manager, was an absolute joy to communicate with. Always prompt and accommodating, she ensured that our stay was seamless and enjoyable. If you’re looking for a secluded escape to truly appreciate the rugged charm of Connemara, Hawthorn House is an exceptional choice. We left feeling refreshed and connected to the beauty of Ireland’s west. Highly recommended!

Absolutely stunning house in a gorgeous location. Host was fabulous too. Would highly recommend.

What a beautiful location and place to stay! We slept wonderfully in this peaceful country retreat. The location is about 1/2way between Dublin and Kylemore Abbey, we used it as a stopover on our way towards Dublin after Kylemore. The value would be really great for a large party, for us there were only 5 so we didn’t even use all the rooms (the kids wanted to sleep together, they were excited for the bunk beds). We wandered around the estate a little and even took a stroll around the Friary ruins in town. There is a playground at the entrance to the estate area that the kids loved. We had a great time with the fire pit in the outside area behind the place. It is a renovated old building so it did have some problems, and our impression was that the hosts are new to this process, but what they lacked in experience they made up for in enthusiasm. Rowan was VERY responsive, and tried his best to resolve any issues quickly. We would stay here again.

The place was so special. We had the best time escaping from the busyness of life and just relaxing in the hot tub.

Sarah and Barry were excellent hosts. We booked for 2 nights and had the hot tub for ourselves the first night. It was fun lighting the fire and keeping it going while the night fell. On the 2nd night we booked the sauna and plunge pools with outdoors shower. So relaxing going from one to another over 2hrs. My wife booked a facial treatment with Sarah on the morning we were leaving and found it brilliant and relaxing. Thanks to Sarah and Barry for a lovely stay.
