Beachfront vacation rentals in County Cork

Lovely and calm boathouse right next to a beautyful bay. I loved the morning swims, the sunrises and sunsets. You can watch birds and we were lucky enough to watch otters several times! Stephanie is a very friendly person and gave us several tips. My partner said I should give 5 of 5 otters for the accomodation. I totally agree :-)

We had the most wonderful few days at beautiful Tigh Anne-Marie. It is comfortable, bright, and spotlessly clean, and has the most amazing sea views. The house is perfectly located, only a short (and hugely scenic) walk to stunning Inchydoney beach and hotel. Scally’s SuperValu in Clonakilty is only a 10 minute drive away. We also enjoyed using the sauna, which is easy to use and has a stunning view. Esther and Cillian were responsive and friendly communicators and were very quick to help us with any issues we had. We hope to come back soon again!

We love Beara and are so pleased to have found Baile Beag. This is our second time to stay there. It’s so soothing and nested into the land and the house is so cosy and homely.

We stayed in one of the Bell tents on (very) short notice and Matt was very helpful and friendly. The tent was bigger than we expected and absolutely exceeded our expectations. It was spotless and in a beautiful location, surrounded by nature. The bathrooms were spotless and the kitchen was perfect for our short stay. Matt was also very helpful giving us a recommendation for the Fastnet Bar for food. After seeing the full location I would absolutely recommend to everyone and would definitely return to stay in one of the GeoDomes or EcoCabins!

Brilliant few days in Arti’s. The place is so peaceful and quiet with amazing views. While you need a car to get them, there are lots of nice amenities to drive to close by, but the real draw is the ability to go off grid for a few days in beautiful surroundings. Arti is also a super responsive and helpful host. Enjoy!

What a beautiful place, and what a view! We definitely didn’t stay long enough and if they’ll have us back, we’d like to stay longer next time. Martin & Claire were fantastic hosts and made my family feel so welcome. I really appreciate all the efforts they went to for us and we really loved our stay. Looking forward to seeing you again next year! Many Thanks Again!

Beautiful house in an even more beautiful location. Amazing views of the sea and surrounding countryside. Short stroll to beach . Three minute car ride to closet shop and take away. Rosscarbery town is lovely . Will definitely be returning !

The creativity cabin is a wonderful home away from home. There is gorgeous mountain and sea views and plenty of opportunities to see the nearby wildlife. Anne is an outgoing and friendly host who is also very respectful of guests privacy. The cats are also wonderful :)

We fell in love with this house. It’s in a beautifully secluded spot with direct access to the water. We swam each morning and it was bliss. The layout of the house is great, with a large open plan kitchen, dining and living room and a gorgeous deck that gets the sun. The surrounding area is stunning. We particularly liked the Buddhist centre and vegetarian cafe, which is in a gorgeous spot with breathtaking views. Would love to go back and spend more time exploring.

Admiral House was the perfect spot for family getaway on beautiful Bere Island. The house was clean and had every amenity needed including a stroller and high chair for a toddler. Lots to explore on the island and there are 2 local ferries for day trips to Beara Peninsula. The host and her grandma were so kind dropping off Irish bread and a quiche. All in all a lovely visit would highly recommend for a quiet relaxing time.

Such a beautiful location and Tracey was so helpful with local recommendations and accurate directions!

Such a beautiful place. We enjoyed it beyond description! And we love your orange kitty!!!

I just spent a week in this stunning home of Jerry and Kelly. With stunning views over Ballycotton Harbour and the sea, the house is beautifully decorated, very homely and warm and incredibly well equipped. Definitely the best equipped self-catering kitchen I have ever seen! I was there with a few friends and we just had the most lovely of times chatting at the dining table or snuggled up on the couches. 5 Star accommodation in a beautiful location. I will definitely be back!

We had an incredible few days! Olivia got in touch with some super helpful and friendly descriptions of the area and tips to help us with our stay. The space is super clean, there were thoughtful little welcome bits for us, and it made us feel at home right away! The view is absolutely stunning and the place is beautifully peaceful and quiet with no road or other noise at all, other than the relaxing sounds of the small beach.

This space was just perfect for our visit to Cobh. It was in the best location, with a gorgeous water view and within walking distance to every thing in town. A big plus was the parking spaces right out front. We parked the car and didn't move it. The space was spotless and uncluttered. Just note, there is a flight of stairs up to the living area. then a second flight to the bedrooms; ok for us but others may find them problematic. I highly recommend this location.

We really, really loved our stay in Dunworly. It was absolutely stunning. We definitely learned the way of the windy, narrow roads and felt like pros by the end. The beach was easily the most amazing view we have ever seen. We really enjoyed the quick walk to it and went every morning. We quickly adapted to the drive to the restaurants and shops in Timoleague, Bandon, and Clonakilty. Our favorite restaurant was in Bandon - Copper Grove - it was incredible! We loved the small towns and getting that “locals” feel. Our time at Tommy’s Beach House was easily the highlight of our trip. Thank you for making our trip from New Orleans wonderful!

Beautiful part of the country, stunning location, amazing house. All you could ask for.

A truly memorable stay! Not many can say they were the Keeper’s of the Lighthouse for a few nights…the views were stunning and the house is beautifully updated with modern comforts. Saoirse’s list of recommendations worked out well for us and we enjoyed a couple of local restaurants and pubs. We had a lovely time and would definitely return and stay longer.

Had a perfect week here. We took paddle boards with us which was great fun. The house itself was incredibly spacious and so well equipped with everything it was like being in someone's home. The cupboards had everything we needed in the way of condiments, sauces, tea etc. Also having 2 dishwashers made eating at home so easy.

We loved our holiday at Eimear and Eoin's home! It was a lovely place to spend Easter and celebrate our daughter's birthday. The home is perfectly located on the water and had everything we needed. They were very responsive to any inquiries and helpful with any questions. The layout of the house is great for a family with plenty of space and spectacular views. We can't wait to return.

A beautiful spacious home steps away from a gorgeous coastline. We had everything we needed for our family of five. Or grandson loved throwing stones in the bay! Lovely sunsets over Inch Strand. Enjoyable walk to the local coffee shop and pub/restaurant. Most of Kerry’s attraction are within a short drive. We loved it here. Perfect week of weather too!

We stayed in Dave’s home for 3 nights but wanted to stay forever. The home is well equipped, cosy, cool artwork and loads of records to listen to. The mature garden is stunning to relax in and look over the ocean. Down the end of the garden is steps to the beach where we spent the whole weekend swimming and kayaking - absolute heaven! We brought a kayak but there was even one for us to use at the house! It’s literally beside a lovely little pub and a few minutes walk from a restaurant (the mussels are so fresh and tasty!). We enjoyed every minute and Dave was a fantastic host. Thanks! Robin & Danny

This place is a must it is absolutely beautiful and so worth the cost and our Host Robert was incredible checking in all the time if we were still happy and needed anything plus on arrival there was the most beautiful and practical gift basket plus the places fresh water and milk in fridge and speciality cheeses for us along with fresh flowers in kitchen and dining area and what was most appreciated was the fact they have placed a beautiful Christmas Tree to place us in the perfect Christmas spirit and make us feel at home thank YOU

We had a most comforatable and enjoyable stay at Robert's Anchorage home. It was very well equipped, lovely location and thoughtfully presented. Robert's instructions were timely, clear and helpful.
