Holiday rentals with lake access in Ireland

We had a fantastic stay at Patrick and Caroline’s property! It’s a great spot for families — so many activities to keep everyone entertained. The pool was definitely the highlight for the kids; they absolutely loved it and spent hours there every day. The place was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped for a family stay. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a fun, relaxing getaway with plenty to do for all ages.

Absolutely loved the house. Everything was spotless and the house is amazing and so comfortable. The location was beautiful

We had a great time at the lake house! With the scenery being better then what is in the photos!

3rd stay at the Hidden Gem and consistently an amazing spot to unwind and relax - last stay was a few years ago in 2018, and the standards are still as exceptionally high. Accommodation is spotless - it has everything you need to feel at home, and the host was very helpful before and during our stay with recommendations of local events. A welcome pack of bananas, crisps, biscuits and milk, all you need to kick in and relax straight away - Accommodation is well equipped -Mary Frances has thought of everything! There's enough between the accommodation (pool table, Pinball, Bar games, TV) and local walks/beaches to keep any age happy. Just an overall great place to switch off and spend some time with the important people in your life. will be back as soon as we can, as it's just perfect.

This is the perfect spot for a couple staying in north west Donegal. The apartment is comfortable, clean and well equipped. It is well located for sightseeing north west Donegal. Mo is an excellent host: very responsive to messages and with helpful suggestions of things to do. Highly recommended.

The space was beautiful and comfortable! We got caught in Galway in a big storm and spend the evening snuggled up on the couch watching a movie. It was a perfect space with the big windows, access to a kettle for tea, and even fresh scones. Everything was clean and organized. We'd read other reviews about noise from other units - but we did not experience this while we were there.

A fantastic location with views in every direction, each very special and therefore never boring. A good starting point for several (hiking) tours. Get tips on this, too. Sun (if you shine) from morning to evening at or in the house. We have already decided after a few days that we want to come back next year. To relax and unwind one of the best accommodations I know. And don't worry about the driveway, is really absolutely doable and does not require a special car or a special driver.

This was a dreamy, safe spot. Huge, private home with massive glass windows overlooking fields of barley. We could see for miles huge clouds and distant hills. After making dinner in the large country kitchen we walked down the quiet dirt road to a huge field and took in the peaceful evening letting the children run around. Every room was large, the bathrooms were all large, and everything was clean and so welcoming. We couldn’t recommend this stay for your family of kids young and old, or a large group of friends for a stay replete with large meals, walks and evening wine on the patio.

The mews is a charming, cosy space about 15 minutes walk from the quayside and a short car journey or longer (but very pleasant) walk. It was clean, well equipped and peaceful, with beautiful views across the bay from the front of the property. There is designated parking, and in the property there were helpful maps and details of local attractions as well as local taxi numbers. Patricia gave us several recommendations for places to visit, and Westport and the surrounding area is very beautiful. Highlights of our trip included horse riding at Carrowholly Stables and the Clew Bay Cruise. Great property, highly recommended.

a lovely apartment with everything you might need. Slept very well with the firm matress and quality bedlinen. Good shower pressure and lots of towels in bathroom. The pizza downstairs in the bar was so good that we had it 2 nights in a row. Really friendly and helpful staff in the bar who gave us plenty of recommendations for the area. The pub was full each night but we didn't have any issues with sound or noise from below. Highly recommend staying here.

Stayed here for a wedding in the Lyrath hotel which was perfect for us as it is very close by. Gorgeous cottage, very clean and had everything we needed. Marilyn was an excellent host would definitely recommend this place to anyone

Irish hospitality at its best. Our hosts were lovely, bringing us freshly laid eggs most days and usually around at the end of the day for a friendly chat. The location was great, we loved our evening strolls along the beach. We hope to return someday.

myself and my husband stayed in Gérards place for 4 nights. It was our 25th wedding anniversary and on arrival Gérard had a lovely card and some lovely cake and bottles of local beer left out for us, this was such a thoughtful gesture and was so much appreciated. Gérard is such a lovely person, a pure gentle man and was always there to help or advise us whenever needed. He brought us to the local bar the first night and we got to meet the lovely friendly locals and my husband got to play a few games of pool with them. Gérards place is such a very special place, the views and scenery is absolutely spectacular, we loved every minute of it and it had everything we needed. We went hiking in the Mcgillicuddy Reeks, went to some of the gorgeous beaches and done a lot of sight seeing. There was always plenty to do. One of the highlights for us was meeting Gérards 2 border collies and got to see them work which was amazing. I highly recommend Gérards place, we will be back again.❤️

Excellent location. Nick was very communicative. Bathrooms were nice. Bedrooms were nice. We were very happy and would stay again! Highly recommend!

we felt very welcome,loved the artistic flair all around.Comfortable and very clean flat beautiful unusual surroundings

Comfortable apartment in beautiful and interesting surroundings with excellent host Hughes and a not to be missed bar/restaurant ( Burke) as a neighbor. Be sure to have a drink or something to eat there. Highly recommend!

My favourite place on Earth 😊 While it’s close enough to Dublin, it’s so private and peaceful it feels like you are completely away from civilisation in the most positive way. The surrounding are absolutely stunning, and there is a lot of sightseeing nearby. This place is just perfect for disconnecting from the busy city life. And lastly, Richard and Ben are fantastic hosts, very friendly, responsive and helpful. I would highly recommend this place and will definitely be coming back here myself 💚

A great find to get to experience the castle grounds and still have your own space. House is really cool, and is nicely modernized

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!

I have stayed in this cottage quite a few times over the years - and I always enjoy it immensely. The cottage is lovely, decorated in a style that suits its age, and set in the most stunning scenery. It feels as though you're in the middle of nowhere - it is so quiet the deer come right up to the patch of grass in front of the house in the evenings and there are so many different birds it's almost like an orchestra - but you're definitely not: There are two good restaurants in the area, a nice pub near a harbour, a lunchroom in gorgeous gardens and a very well stocked shop-and-tearoom only a 20 minute drive away. So yes, I will come again!

We had a really lovely week in John & Eileen's beautiful, cosy cottage. It is wonderfully located close to all the amenities of Killarney and yet also in a peaceful country setting. The cottage is exactly as shown in the photos with the added bonus of a working fireplace which was a real treat to use each night. Eileen looked after us perfectly making sure we had everything we needed for our stay. Overall we are very happy to recommend John and Eileen and their beautiful cottage to anyone.

Had a great stay at Neil & Aileens place. Delightful cottage with beautiful views. 10 minutes from the fantastic Portnoo beach and 10 minutes from Ardara also. Place has everything you need for a great stay. Neil & Aileen great hosts. Hope to return over the coming months. Thanks guys!!

What an pretty spot direct on Lough Allen. Totally private and peaceful, a great place to unwind. Decorated with lots of personal individual things, very homely and cosy. The pictures speak for themselves. We enjoyed the peacefulness of the place and slept like logs.

As the pictures tell, this is a charming cottage in the country. Loved to visit with the cows behind us! We all agreed it felt like our grandmothers home, comfortable and welcoming. Not too far away from civilization Irish style. The sun room on a blustery rainy day was awesome. We were very happy and felt very safe! Emily was lovely! Very thankful we chose this cottage.
