Barn vacation rentals in Connacht

Stephanies place was lovely and peaceful

An enjoyable stay, very cosy cottage. Ideal for a short getaway.

Martina and John are the most wonderful hosts you could hope for. They were welcoming, friendly and so helpful. Martina gave us priceless tips for our itinerary and wrote ideas on a map to take with us. Her breakfast box was out of this world! Organic and delicious assortment of breakfast foods lovingly prepared by our hosts arrived at our door every morning. John took us to his farm to show us around and dropped us off in a lovely spot for a hike. Bed was comfortable. Shower was modern with plenty of space for my husband with extra wide shoulders. The space is lovely with beautiful, large windows and lovely decor. The location was quiet and beautiful, nestled in the countryside, but convinced driving distance to all the places we wanted to see. You will absolutely love staying here!

A lovely home, suited our needs well and allowed for a perfect location to explore the northwest of Ireland and the Wild Atlantic Way. The nearby Garden Center and lunch spot are highly recommended and within a 5 min walk from the property. Brian sent along wonderful recommendations for activities, restaurants and shops. Excellent communication and quick responses to any query we had. Highly recommended Brian's home!

We had a brilliant stay 2 night stay in the Orchard Cottage (4 adults and 1 toddler), which acted as our base to spend time Fermanagh over Easter. Peaceful and quiet setting with cosy vibes inside it felt like being right at home. The welcome basket on arrival was a nice touch, and our 2 year olds response this morning for breakfast was, she wanted some ginger cake so it was definitely a hit! Brilliant cottage to unwind and would definitely recommend this place to others. Seamus and Eileen are great hosts!

Stayed here for a night and absolutely loved it! Isabella was very welcoming and gave us all the information we needed upon arrival. The place had everything we could possibly need for a comfortable stay. Isabella gave us fresh eggs, which were absolutely lovely! Adorable lambs greeted us, adding a peaceful charm to the whole experience. It’s a lively, warm, and inviting spot—we’ll definitely be back for a longer stay next time!

We would live here if we could! So beautiful and peaceful. Joan and Paul strike the perfect balance of friendly, helpful hosts while giving you ample privacy as well. Turf fires, gorgeous garden terrace, everything we had hoped for and more! You should book this place NOW!

Booking was a breeze. Contacted the hosts beforehand and they were extremely helpful in narrowing down a date and a check-in time. When we arrived, Dermot was there to greet us and showed us to our place of stay. He made sure that we felt welcomed and if we needed anything at all, not to be afraid to give him a shout. Dermot helped us with organising a take-away and also with setting up the fire and heater. Area was beautiful and peaceful with stunning views of the Ox Mountains range. The barn was far bigger than I expected, with lots of room and everything you could need. Overall, was a very enjoyable experience and would highly recommend it.

This place is truly special, both in its setting in a mature countryside meadow on a secluded peninsula in Lough Arrow, as well as in its conversion into a wide and open and full of light living space, with furnishing that are both practical and in harmony with the setting. Mir and Araceli are very welcoming and friendly hosts that are happy to advice on any subject, whether related to the listing or where to go. Due to its remoteness the place is very peaceful and tranquil, but a car is a must. We chose this place to find some peace and quiet in order to recover from a stressful period, and it far exceeded our expectations ― we will definitely be back.

This was a phenomenal place for myself and 2 young adult. So centrally located for several short drives. Super convenient to get to the Marghera beach caves, the Kilcooney Dolmen, Assaranca Waterfall and the Ardara Distillery is a must and only 8 minutes by foot. At night it’s super close to fantastic and warm pubs. Nancy’s is a must and it’s literally in the backyard. As close as all the pubs are it’s comfortably silent in the “Barn”. The nostalgia of being in a refurbished barn isn’t lost even with the beautiful renovation. It was overly spacious for the 3 of us but that isn’t a complaint at all. My kids enjoyed being on a separate floor from me when they grew tired of my adult annoyance. I absolutely loved “The Barn” and I will definitely be back. As a photographer it was an absolute dream space and location. I’ve referred several friends already and I’m hoping they invite me!

We spent a great week as a family of five at The Barn. The space is comfortable, warm and clean, and the setting is lovely. It’s a great place to explore Clare, Limerick, Lough Derg and Galway, and beyond, with plenty of day trips within driving distance. The renovation of the barn as a holiday home is really well executed and you get a real sense of the project, with photographs etc detailing its progress. Zita was an attentive and communicative host.

I’m so unbelievably glad that we ended up staying here. Christopher’s cottage is a very quick jaunt from Ardara, a lovely village with excellent food spots and all the essentials, but the real beauty of the location is the view of Maghera beach and the Assaranca falls. Our breath was taken every time we left and returned to the cottage. The cottage has a huge kitchen, and it is well stocked with cooking equipment- we were able to whip up dinners and hot breakfasts with ease. The rooms were spacious (and I think very charming and attentively decorated). Not every “authentic Irish cottage” is cozy, but the radiators and the fire in the main room kept us toasty as winds blew and rains fell. I had read that some people weren’t thrilled about the presence of some centipedes that found their way into this old cottage, while we did see a few, they are obviously harmless and we all merrily cohabited! I would love to return, and Christopher’s visitors’ guide has given me many ideas!

What a treasure of a place!! So cosy, private, quiet & peaceful and beautiful views too. The barn was well equipped, spotlessly clean and had everything you’d need for your stay. Lisa Marie was a fabulous host and was so very helpful too. So many great walks in the area for ourselves and our dog and great places to eat too!! We can’t wait to go back!!

We had the most incredible stay at Paul’s recently renovated cottage in Old Head , truly the nicest place we have ever stayed! The cottage was the perfect blend of modern comfort and cosy charm. It was spotless on arrival and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. Paul and his wife were the perfect hosts ,so helpful and genuinely friendly, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The location is absolutely breathtaking, with a stunning view of Croagh Patrick and a beautiful beach just a five-minute walk away. Waking up to that scenery every day was something special. Every detail in the cottage was thoughtfully done, and it’s clear a lot of care went into the renovation. We can’t recommend this place highly enough and are already dreaming about our next visit!

We spent our first 2 nights in Windgap while visiting Ireland and we certainly would have loved to stay longer. The accommodations were as pictured. Beautiful rooms, cozy fireplace, well equipped kitchen where we were able to cook Easter Sunday dinner, and the grounds were gorgeous. Plus, my children loved the animal visitors! We found a lot to do and see in the surrounding area as well. Highly recommend!

Sadie was the best host that you could imagine. So kind and caring, and thoughtful, with a basket of homemade goodies to greet you. The little cottage is so well done out and Sadie has thought of everything that you might need. If you want to 'get away from it all' plus enjoy true irish hospitality then this is the place for you!

Des is the best host you could ever ask for! Super friendly and very responsive, gave us lots excellent tips to navigate the area. The Red Gates is pristine and the accommodations are top notch. We felt right at home and didn't want to leave his beautiful, peaceful setting! See you next time. Thanks for sharing sweet Luna with us too!

Stayed with kids for two nights so that we could attend athletics event. Lots of space, great nights sleep before competing, shame we didn’t have time to explore the area. Many thanks.

The Cow Shed is incredibly peaceful. It allows one to just slow down and enjoy the beauty of the Irish countryside. Pete and Anna were so welcoming and helpful and the space was everything we could have hoped for. We so enjoyed our stay and would 100% recommend Pete and Anna’s cosy home to others.

Irene created an inviting space and comfortable experience for our stay. Space was thoughtfully stocked (laundry detergent, coffee/tea, feminine products, shower supplies, sweets in the fridge). Irene also provided detailed information about the cottage. We experienced smooth and rapid communication, along with a flexible check-in experience as we faced delays in our itinerary prior to arrival.

What a beautiful and peaceful location! If you had a favorite Irish grandmother to visit, this would be her cosy cottage. The setting is gorgeous, in the middle of green fields with sheep and cows for neighbors. Great for walking and close to a lovely beach. Easy to access all the beautiful places in County Sligo. Would definitely stay again, we were sorry to leave. Thank you Tracey and Eilish!

Danny's condo is very well laid out and the trails to walk along from his garden were amazing, a particular hit for our two dachshunds running up the hills with us. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a nice cozy base for exploring the area and will be back when we are next in the area.
