Holiday home-3 bedroom. 1 double, 1 twin 1 single
Lovely stay in Lahinch. House is in a great location 10 mins walk to town. All the spaces used in the house very well. Loads of little small extras for things we forgot (tea bags, cooling oil, etc). House was cosy and warm. Communication excellent and lahinch has an excellent vibe to it. Really enjoyed it and would definitely stay again.

Luxury Atlantic Retreat Lodge Kinvara near bay
When you walk into this beautifully decorated house, you will feel right at home. Carola has thought of everything you could possibly need or want. We cooked breakfast every morning in the kitchen which was stocked better than most people’s homes. Perfect, quiet location between Galway and Cliffs of Moher. We loved going to the pubs in Kinvarra and hanging out with the locals during a music session.

The Westend Hideaway #2 - Sleeps 4
Location was perfect! We greatly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again if ever able to be back in Galway.

2 bedroom selfcatering just 15mins to city centre.
Very nice house in a relaxing setting! Karina is very welcoming, nice touches upon arrival! Thank you

Spiddal, near Galway. On the Wild Atlantic Way.
We absolutely loved being able to call this place home during our visit to Ireland. Sheila and Redmond were very responsive and friendly in making sure we had everything we needed and more. The location was beautiful and conveniently walkable to the pier, shops and pubs. Our girls especially loved the little playroom - perfect for our family trip!! We’ll definitely be back!

Ard B and B Loft
Aoibheann was an amazing host! Her sweet personality made us feel right at home! She also gave so many great recommendations for things in the area! The place was in walking distance to everything we wanted to see and do in Galway! And of course Puffy and Yoda (dog and cat) were excellent additions to the stay! Being away from our puppy this gave us the dose of puppy and kitty love we needed well traveling!

Picturesque Galway Bay Property
Location location location! This was an incredible little gem right in the hub of activity! The Long Walk was at our front door, literally. We had no idea that where we stayed was a picture point for artists (photos and paintings). We felt like we were living in the artwork! Annamarie was so pleasant and chatty and made us feel so very welcome. She really understood our gluten-free needs! (Thank you Annamarie!) She was very detailed in instructions upon arrival and then respected privacy while we were there. The unit was clean/tidy. Typical “wear” for an older place but totally acceptable. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals, yet you are within very close walking distance to all the restaurants, pubs, and shoppes…literally a 5 minute walk to the action. Would definitely stay here again! Thanks Annamarie. Jamie, Jen, and Katie

Baywatch Accommodation & HotTub
We absolutely loved our stay!! The converted container was so cleverly designed and absolutely perfect. Very comfortable accommodation with easy parking. It’s an easy drive to the Cliffs of Moher and Doolin. Jimmy met us at check in to go through instructions and brought a delicious breakfast basket that we thoroughly enjoyed. The hot tub was perfect and the views were absolutely idyllic. We would recommend this stay to anyone visiting the west coast!!

Fab cottage in a peaceful setting well reviewed
The cottage is in a rural area, very beautiful and quiet, with woods and meadows nearby; it is spacious, with a large living room and a lovely veranda overlooking the lawn. Sally was a helpful and very courteous host. It was a perfect stay.

2 bed Holiday home 150 Mtrs from Cappa pier.
We had a great stay. Very quiet area but close to lots of shops, restaurants and places to see. 15 min drive to Kilkee. Beautiful view from the living room and a very welcoming host. Special thanks for the apple tart, Martin, it was delicious. Very clean too. Was a great base to explore Clare.

Cosy quiet luxury in the Burren Wild Atlantic Way
Angela was an amazing host, quick to respond, friendly and helpful. The house was well located for exploring Galway, close to Galway city and Cliffs of Moher. Beautiful surroundings, peaceful and very comfortable home. Would definitely stay again.

The Great Escape- Free Parking- Fantastic Location
Great location and clean apartment that had everything we needed! Would highly recommend

Cozy 2-Bedroom house beside the sea.
David’s place was absolutely perfect for our group of four. The house, located on the backside of David’s but still separate, was bright and clean, and we felt right at home. David and his wife went above and beyond in every way to make us feel welcome and their kindness alone will have us coming back to stay again. The view from the front of the house overlooking the countryside, the town of Lahinch, and the ocean and beach was stunning, and to top it all off their wonderful dogs were maybe the most welcoming of all! Thank you, and we will be back!

Rose Cottage Ennistymon/Lahinch, Co. Clare
Thank you for the stay at your cottage for our family! Family friendly on an immaculate Dairy Farm. The Cottage has been updated to modern comforts (kids could watch Netflix at night after a long day on the smart TV) but still private and comfortable. Much care had been taken by the host to have immaculate accommodation and very family friendly!

Spacious 7 bedroom lodge, with breathtaking views
We had a lovely stay in Aoife's house. With nice views & lots to do in the area, like Surfing, walking the cliffs & some real gems for dining out. We hired in the wild catering & it was a very nice touch. To be able to relax & enjoy a meal at the house was great.We would defo recommend Aoifes House & the wild catering. Many thanks Peter & family

Sweetest Stay in the West
The setting is idyllic and the Little Sanctuary has been beautifully curated by Grace. It's a perfect location for rest and relaxation, with the added bonus that Ennistymon's facilities are within easy walking distance along the picturesque Glen walk. It's a delightfully calming space and Grace has thoughtfully kitted it out with everything you could need. A perfect spot for immersing & rejuvenating yourself in nature.

Your guide to Lahinch
All About Lahinch
Located on Liscannor Bay on the northwest coast of Ireland, Lahinch is a seaside village well positioned for exploring County Clare and the wider Munster region. The focal point of the town is undoubtedly its 1.25-mile sandy beach on the Atlantic Ocean — it’s Blue Flag certified, which means it is clean and safe to swim in. There’s also a lifeguard on duty for extra peace of mind. The breaks formed by the crescent-shaped headlands attract thrill-seeking canoeists and surfers. In fact, there’s a thriving surf scene in the town, with shops, schools, and social events. Sailors, swimmers, kite surfers, and all types of anglers also come to Lahinch to take in the marine offerings.
Lahinch’s colorful streets are lined with independent shops and galleries showcasing local creations. The cafes and traditional pubs make cozy spots to while away a few hours, especially when accompanied by live music. Curious foodies can take a wild-food walk and may even find local seaweed dishes on the menu. North of town, the marshland draws birders to look and listen for pink-footed geese and other rare species. Meanwhile, golfers come here to play a few rounds on the two acclaimed courses in the area.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Lahinch
Lahinch weather is cool, humid, and fairly mild, with light rainfall common throughout the year. Because of the town’s location on the coast, temperatures rarely drop to freezing in winter, but Atlantic storms occur from late autumn through winter, so book your visit for spring and summer if you want to avoid extreme weather. May is the driest and sunniest month, and June and July the warmest, though the heat will never be considered tropical. If you book your Lahinch accommodation for March, you’ll experience St. Patrick’s Day in full swing on the 17th, when the town comes to life with live music and parades.
Top things to do in Lahinch
Surfing at Lahinch Beach
Surfing is a core element of the town’s culture, so you’ll want to take to the waves for an exhilarating view of the County Clare coastline. The surf at Liscannor Bay is beginner-friendly, and you’ll find several surf schools ready to equip you and get you paddling. You can reward yourself with a hearty meal at one of the local pubs once you’ve dried off.
Cliffs of Moher
One of the best-known views in Ireland, the Cliffs of Moher are just six miles from Lahinch, and the paved pathways tracing the clifftop route allow you to take in the stunning views over the Aran Islands. More than 35 bird species, including peregrines, puffins, and guillemots, call the steep cliffs home, and you might spot dolphins and whales out at sea. You can rent picnic blankets and binoculars at the visitor center.
Bunratty Castle and Folk Park
The Bunratty Castle and Folk Park is just over 35 miles southeast of Lahinch. Its site was a Viking trading center in the 10th century. The castle, the fourth built at the site, dates from 1425 and is extremely well-preserved. The Folk Park is a living recreation of a 19th-century Irish village, with dozens of traditional buildings, including farmhouses, a school, and a grocery populated by local characters who explain their history. The interactive Fairy Trail that leads through the woodlands enchants visitors of all ages.
