Family-friendly vacation rentals in Ulster

It’s such a lovely peaceful place! We have stayed here before back in April 23, we had to come back. Nicola, was just on the other end of the phone she is a lovely woman. Her little studio is perfect for a couple.

The place was spotless and incredibly clean, making it feel comfortable and inviting. The attention to detail really stood out, and it was clear the host cares about providing a top-notch experience. The place exceeded my expectations in every way – it was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The host was welcoming and responsive, ensuring everything went smoothly from check-in to check-out. The location was perfect, and I truly felt at home during my stay. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great experience and would love to stay here again in the future!

Really enjoyed our stay in the cabin. The surroundings are so private and peaceful and we enjoyed our evenings chilling in the hot tub and then getting cosy in the cabin, which has everything you'd need! Great recommendations for pet friendly places in the area. Lorcan was very responsive and check in was very easy. We will definitley be back again!

Visited here for 5 days and it was a great experience. The place was clean, plenty of room for 4 people and kitted out with all of the essentials we needed for our stay. The location is excellent with plenty of pubs, restaurants and shops, within walking distance. Tricia was attentive and was very good at communicating with us throughout our stay and even dropped in some cupcakes for us. Will heavily consider coming back here when we next visit Ireland.

comfortable and private with the hot tub a bonus 😊

Great place for a family. We had a wonderful time.

Very sad that we only had one night here, the accommodation and grounds were lovely & exactly as described. Very accommodating hosts and allowed early check in as flights/ferries arrived early morning. We will definitely be returning and recommending to friends/family! :)

William was a great host with good recommendations for local places. Comfortable quarters and potential access to hot tub with additional charge.

Lovely stay in the blue house. Very close to where we were attending a wedding. Walking distance to all local bars/restaurants. Nicola was very helpful and friendly. House was lovely, very clean and had all amenities needed. Will definitely stay again!

Lovely house near Portstewart. Well equipped kitchen and comfortable living space. Two full bathrooms so ideal for our party of three couples. Spacious terrace accessed from main living area with open views over golf course towards the coast. Works better with a car as about 1.5 mile walk in to Portstewart centre. Recommended!

We just enjoyed a fabulous couple of days touring around the varied landscapes of coastal and mountainous Donegal and it was all possible thanks to this beautiful cottage base, where our 3 dogs were so welcome, comfortable and safe throughout. We loved everything about Kitty’s Cottage from location to home comforts to the welcoming treats and flowers. Thank you Kathleen!

We had a lovely stay at Jeremy and Claire’s place, the location was great and the property was super clean and had everything you needed. They were always available if we needed help with anything. Highly recommend!

Had a great 2 night stay, easy to book and great communication throughout. Thank you.

Idyllic...great cottage with excellent amenities. Everything was as described in the listing. Very comfortable beds and excellently equipped kitchen. lovely touch is the welcome treats left for guests. This was a repeat visit for me and I will be back again. Great host.

Heather made us very welcome and explained everything clearly. She had suggestions for places to go locally and was on hand if needed. However she was not intrusive and we felt comfortable with our stay.

We had such a wonderful time. From first arrival Roisin was there to greet us with her beautiful dog and made us feel totally welcome. My mum sister & I travelled with 3 dogs and they thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful open space inside and out. We loved the fire and the comfortable beds, and we had everything we needed for a relaxed few days break. We spent a day at the Giants Causeway which is about 20 mins drive away. The local town was just a 5 minute drive, here we found great local restaurants. We will definitely recommend this house and Roisin to family and friends.

my family and I had a great week at the Coach house, and the house was spacious and very well equipped and clean. the main attractions are outdoors! the lake at the bottom of the driveway! the beach, the private hot tub was amazing and so spacious. the games room was fab! everyone loved it, from the adults to the kids, hours of entertainment 😀 highly recommend 👌

Wonderful property, very spacious and comfortable. Well situated for a family wedding in Slane then Tankardstown house, would definitely stay again! Carina was very helpful and easy to communicate with for booking the hot tub and arranging check in

Beautiful and spacious ocean front rental. We had everything we needed and quick access to the Buncrana ocean trail. We had a relaxing time here to celebrate a wedding.

The Sawmill is, without a doubt, the most incredible Airbnb I’ve ever experienced! Every centimeter of it is packed with charm and thoughtful details, making it truly special! Nestled in a tranquil forest with a private lake nearby, it feels like a hidden paradise in the heart of Donegal - the most breathtaking county in Ireland. And the sauna? Absolute perfection - the ultimate way to unwind after a day of hiking, surfing, or exploring the stunning coastline. The host was fantastic, providing clear instructions and ensuring everything was seamless. Can’t recommend this place enough – we loved every second!

We were astonished by this place. The house is so deceiving from the front but once you enter it’s completely modern with an en-suite in every single bedroom, you would swear you were staying in the hotel itself. The rooms were spotless and the staff on site were absolutely amazing. Will definitely be back here again soon and will be recommending this place to everyone who is looking for a staycation. Thanks again for a great night away.

We absolutely loved our stay at Rock Farm Slane! The place is so peaceful, surrounded by nature, making it the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle. Our dog, Zoe, had the best time exploring the wide, walkable spaces and taking in the beautiful sights. The atmosphere is serene, and it’s a wonderful spot to relax and unwind. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a tranquil getaway—especially for those with pets who love the outdoors! We’ll definitely be back.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Castle Barmeath was an incredible Airbnb experience. Lord & Lady Bellew showed us around their 400 Year old Castle which has remained in their family all this time. I’m just amazed at how history one place can hold. There was about 300 acres surrounded by stone walls. Trails trough a gorgeously manicured forest with many trails leading to secrete walled gardens full of fruit trees and flowers. There was even a natural swimming pool and stone bridge over a lake. I feel so lucky to have gotten to experience something so grand and magical!
