Vacation rentals in Coolea

Maureen is a wonderful host. We had a late check-in, she waited for us, told us how and what to use in the house, recommended places to visit, bought us food, which was very nice of her. The house is located on a tranquil street, but at the same time, there is a shop nearby and only about 30 minutes to the city center. All photos correspond to reality. The house has everything necessary for a comfortable stay, and we felt at home. Many thanks, Maureen, we had a lovely stay and will be happy to return to your home again!

Myra was so very helpful with recommendations of places to visit and see, took plenty of time to provide a local perspective of the best places to eat, visit and experience. Thank you so very much Myra!!!

Katie's place is extra sweet. The balcony area out the back has a stunning view. She's thought of everything, and the kitchen is ideal to cook in, with all the utensils you could wish for. We adapted to the space so easily. Black out blinds on the window and really cosy and warm. The novelty is your smack bang in the middle of the village. We loved it.

‘Oh, you’re staying at The Cottage! Isn’t it lovely?!’ This from the owners of Foley’s, a cozy nearby restaurant/pub that we visited on our one night in the area. The Cottage is known to be an absolute gem, even among the locals who aren’t staying there. It is a super comfortable and well-maintained accommodation. I recommend the Pick Quick convenience/gas store a mile down the road for groceries and ‘world famous toasties’ (grilled ham-and-cheese sandwiches; they hit the spot). Our dinner at Foley’s - a few kilometers further down the peninsula - was delicious, and we were made to feel at home.

I cannot recommend The Old Milking Stall (Tim and Barbara) enough!! I stayed there with my family for 4 days and it was more than we could imagine! Tim and Barbara themselves are so welcoming and helpful, they couldn’t be any nicer if they tried! They provide a thoughtful welcome hamper! And for their home it is gorgeous! So beautiful from the garden to the reading nook, it’s perfect for all! Their pet dogs being your friend is a bonus! If you need any help they are willing to do what they can from taxi advice to food recommendations! If you need a place to stay in Skibbereen, The Old Milking Stall is definitely the place to stay! Thanks again Tim and Barbara 🤍

Clinton was a great host, cottage was very clean and well equipped. He also helped facilitate taxis to and from the wedding venue we were in town for. Highly recommend.

Fantastic stay! Sophie was amazing from her first communication! Her instructions for getting there were very clear and the cabin was amazing! Gorgeous spot! Sophie was so quick to respond - we really appreciated all the little touches - games, gear for baby & toddler, warm bedding, fresh eggs & homemade jam - all just great!

Danny and Jessie's place was exactly what we wanted. A home away from home. Peaceful, remote, but easy to get to local towns and villages by car. And the garden is absolutely stunning. Thank you for a wonderful stay. Highly recommend.
