Barn vacation rentals in Ireland

This spot is exactly what you would imagine when you think of a stay in rural Ireland. Cows graze in a pasture across the road, and the entire place is surrounded by rolling hills. Extremely cozy, with a wood stove, comfy couches, and lots of blankets. Stephanie was very welcoming, and gave us lots of great recommendations in the area. While very rural, the cottage isn't remote, as many major attractions including the Cliffs of Moher and Bunratty castle are a 30-60 minute drive away. Make sure to check out the town of Ennis while you're in Feakle.

The cottage was wonderful, located a short 20 minute walk from Ballycullane, Helen and Frank had supplied snacks and breakfast supplies such as bacon eggs and pudding, as-well as coffee, juice and cereal! The cottage was comfortable and even included a fire place with wood and coals to light it ! Would go back in a heartbeat!

A beautiful house with a lot of attention to detail in the peaceful irish countryside. We had a lovely stay in this cozy home, even if it rained the whole time through!

Staying in Martina and John‘s cottage was one of the highlights of our travels through Ireland. They were both so warm and welcoming and helpful in procuring reservations during a very busy time. Each morning the most delicious picnic basket was delivered to our door. What a treat! Hard, boiled egg, granola, homemade bread (baked by John), croissant, yogurt and to top it off a French press coffee.Martina’s warmth and enthusiasm made us feel as though we had made new friends! We do hope to return one day!

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!

Fred's place is wonderful, a true gem! We felt at home for our stay, and the dogs were very welcome companions. 100% recommend a stay here 😊

Our second visit to this beautiful place. Lovely sunshine, peace and tranquility, fabulous dark skies and the perfect hostess. We had a fantastic night's sleep after the best day of watching red kites in the skies above. Perfect relaxation haven. Thank you.

We had a wonderful stay by Paul and Joan! It's a very unique property that was nicely converted into a peaceful little abode. There was plenty of beautiful space outdoors to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee or take a morning stroll. Paul and Joan were very helpful with things to do in the area as well as helpful directions on how to get there. Joan even arranged a tour for us with a local guide to give us a break from driving. It was amazing and I would highly suggest. We were able to see Connemara, Cliffs of Moher and the Burren easily from the location. We would definitely stay again. The refrigerator stocked with morning staples as well as a cozy fire when we returned in the evening made this place even more special.

Great host. very accomdating and friendly

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.

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!!

This little place is a gem ! It is so clean, beautifully decorated and the surroundings are just beautiful . Good location for anyone wanting to visit Malin head as it is only 30 mins drive away and is defo worth it ! Will defo be back for another stay

Lovely converted stables in quiet rural area. Even on a cold night, it was cosy with the help of the heaters. we had a short power outage and Ultan provided candles and information. A short drive from Kilmore Quay and it's wonderful beach and dune walks and restaurants . Thanks Ultan for a perfect getaway.

We had a really great stay in the barn. Cait was a brilliant host - very responsive, friendly and helpful. The barn is perfect for two (plus a dog!) - well decorated with everything you’ll need, very comfortable, and in the middle of beautiful countryside with some pubs and cafes nearby. I’d recommend!

We stayed for a weekend as we were attending a wedding nearby. The house felt lovely and homely. Fantastic spacious living room for us all to relax in. Really near the beach, lovely quiet area. Was ideal for what we were looking for.

We spent a long weekend in Bernie’s celebrating a significant birthday. Three generations of family together & Bernie’s ticked all the boxes in terms of comfort & rest. Our granddaughter loved the outdoors, the treehouse, toasting marshmallows on the fire pit, the games room, the animals. We got a taxi to Killkenny for dinner one evening but otherwise self catered & the kitchen is very well equipped. And we had excellent pizzas done on the bbq. Windgap is a very peaceful rural area & perfect place to getaway. I would recommend it highly.

Loved the house and amenities, the hydrobath and sauna are amazing and the view is beautiful. So nice chilling out in the jacuzzi looking at the mountains and stars

This was our second time staying in Corofin with Des. It’s a perfect location for us - close enough both to Ennis and the Burren, and the house is perfect for us ( 2 adults and 4 kids). The house is well equipped, spacious and super comfortable.

Mike was a great host. He was very responsive and answered any questions we asked as soon as he can. The place was clean and had great views! We travelled as a family and enjoyed the stay at Mike's place.

We had such a lovely stay at this charming old Irish cottage! The host was fantastic – super friendly, great with communication, and provided clear instructions that made everything easy. The cottage itself has a rustic, rural charm, with a cozy stove and logs thoughtfully supplied – perfect for relaxing in the peaceful countryside setting. It was also dog-friendly, which was a big plus for us. One of the highlights was the warm welcome: we arrived to find homemade scones, butter, and jam waiting for us – such a thoughtful touch. Would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet, authentic escape

It was a wonderful stay at the Cowshed. We really enjoyed it there. The furnishings are very thoughtful and lovingly made. Anna and Pete were very friendly and accommodating hosts. We can only recommend it to anyone who wants to switch off in nature.

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.

We had a wonderful stay! The place was easy to find thanks to Nicola’s clear directions. It looks exactly like in the photos – beautiful, peaceful, and surrounded by stunning nature. We slept so well! Nicola was very kind and welcoming, and we also had a lovely chat with her husband Cormac. We met two adorable cats during our stay, and they made the experience even more special. We truly hope to come back again someday!
