4.9 out of 5 average rating, 129 reviewsSeafinn lodge
Our stay at Seafinn Lodge was beyond wonderful. Shirley greeted us with a warm welcome, offering a walk up along her property among the sheep with stunning views of the surrounding Irish countryside and Bantry Bay. The apartment was super clean, spacious and bright. We really appreciated the coffee, tea and milk! It’s perfectly located on a quite lot a few minutes drive from Bantry with a Lidl store nearby. Shirley gave us a great recommendation for a pub in Bantry where we met a local man who knew of my husband’s family and helped guide us to where they may have lived. We love Ireland and Shirley and John confirmed just how special the Irish are. A highly recommended place to stay!

Apartment in Youghal
4.94 out of 5 average rating, 33 reviewsBeach Front Apartment
The apartment is very professionally managed by Joan and keeps to what was promised in the description. The unique view has attracted us and it is beautiful to walk a few more steps along the beach ballad in the evening and reflect on the impressions of the day. It has a lot to do from this starting point by car (Blarney Castle, Kilkenny Castle, Cork, Ardmore to mention just a few places and of course Youghal itself). In short: the apartment is highly recommended. We would book the apartment again immediately.

Absolutely stunning location & property. Vincent is an outstanding host, excellent communication and could not do enough for us. The property is outstanding, exceptionally clean, plenty of room for families and friendship parties alike. Lovely welcome pack on our arrival too, fantastic gesture & touch. We encountered storm Eowyn during our stay, which impacted local power & water supplies. We cannot thank Vincent enough for going above and beyond to ensure we still enjoyed a comfortable stay, providing cooking & heating essentials, blankets & other supplies. Despite the weather, we cannot emphasise enough our recommendation for this stunning property and phenomenal host.

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.

Our stay in Glenbeigh, at Driftwood House, could not have been lovelier. With the location on the Ring of Kerry, the view in all directions was breathtaking. Sheep-filled hills in front and an ocean view behind made for a beautiful, peaceful stay. Gretta and William were simply wonderful. They were not only friendly but so helpful in offering suggestions for our activities and driving routes during our stay. Their recommendations for food were perfect and delicious! On our final day, they provided us with helpful tips as we continued our travels to the Cliffs of Moher and Galway. Their bed and breakfast truly feels like home. It is clean, warm and cozy and allowed us to relax into each evening comfortably with a fire in the fireplace. Gretta’s morning scones are to die for and the perfect start to any day! Thank you for making our stay in Glenbeigh so memorable. We certainly hope to visit again! Jim, Connie, Mike & Debbie

We stayed at Aoifes place for Christmas this year and she made it very special. There was a Christmas tree put up along with some Christmas decorations. Aoife had also provided a very generous and festive welcome package which we really appreciated. It was very special time for me and my family, made extra special by the house and all the help Aoife have given to us beforehand. Super Host for sure. Thank you Aoife.

Unusual location in semi wooded raised slightly away and above the owners home, can't see from the airbnb.

Great allocated parking space, would highly recommend this home from home.
