Luxury apartment with great views of Cork Harbour
My family and me had the privilege to stay in this wonderful apartment It was a clean centrally located apartment according to the description Aoife was very friendly and reactive in the communication

Liverpool Dockside Apartment
Lorraines apartment was a great base for our 3 day visit to Liverpool. Beautiful apartment which exceeded our expectations. I expected it to be smaller than it looked but it was actually larger than I thought. We loved it and loved Liverpool. not far to walk into Albert Dock. There was only 2 of us but would be very comfortable for a group of 4. Definitely recommend this to others. Huge Thank you to Lorraine, a great host!

2 Bed Apartment with river balcony and parking
Very clean, with everything we needed. Easy walking to harbour.

Lakeside Apartment on Shore Lough Erne in Ekn town
The view, the view! Beautiful overlooking the water. Steep hills around

Coastal View Apartment
We stayed for 6 days in mid-August and it was such a great location and experience for us. Coming up to the day of arrival, Laura was in contact in relation to recommendations for places to see and things to do on site, advice on getting over to the island, where the local shops were etc. The apartment was really quiet and the place was well cared for. When we checked in there was everything there we needed. The fridge was empty and clean, as was the freezer. Everything you would expect for the kitchen was there. You do need to supply your own washing powder, but that was ok. Check out was just as easy and while it was early (10am) there are plenty of ferries running at that time to get you back to the mainland.

Beach Dream Staycation - Stunning beach front home
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay literally right on the beach. The uninterrupted sea views were stunning. Spacious, great shower and comfortable beds. Would highly recommend

RIVERVIEw 5 bed HOT TUB ContractorsSleeps10
Excellent accommodation over looking the river with a pub/restaurant within 100m. Local walks to exercise or look at the local nature. Ideal accommodation to fit our family in and a great place to relax or travel to local attractions. Emma was great providing us with all the useful information you would otherwise have to research yourself. All the space was spot on and the hot Tub was fantastic to relax in either day or night. Would definitely recommend.

Seaside House (Ridge house), Sandycove, Kinsale
I stayed at Janet’s at the start of the Easter holidays with my husband, two children and mother. We had an absolutely wonderful time. The location and view were fantastic, and the cottage was very comfortable and well equipped. Janet was incredibly helpful and the whole experience was just what we hoped for. We’re already planning when we might be able to come back!

North Coast Beach House Steps from the Beach
This hosue was perfect for a few days away with family. The location is stunning and right on the beach. The house was fantastic and looks even better than in the pictures! would definitely stay again.

Hot Tub With A View - Club Casita
We had the most fantastic time - the lodge was clean, beautifully furnished and cosy on a cold March evening with the wood burner - loved the record player with the albums - The little touches such as biscuits, coffee and croissants were appreciated as were the refillable bottles of hand wash, shampoo etc. You can immediately tell that the owners have put a lot of hard work and love into their property. My friends and I were together for our 50th birthday celebrations and downtime from our hectic lives and we couldn’t have picked a more idyllic spot. Beautiful walks, fabulous scenery and such a calm quiet place. An ideal location to explore the coast and also the local high street with pubs and restaurants is an easy walk - the hot tub was an absolute added bonus. All communication from the hosts was spot on - Thank you and we will be back again.

Waterfront, character cottage
Comfortable, characterful cottage in the most beautiful location with stunning views.

Fabulous River House - perfect location!
Lovely long term stay in springtime Chester. Jo’s townhouse was so comfortable and homey and well-equipped for delightful experience. Jo was always friendly and helpful. Would love to return.

The Lake House on Windrush, Cotswolds Waterpark
Myself and five friends had the most wonderful stay at the beautiful Lake House. Mark was prompt with any queries and kindly let us check-in early after some of our group had travelled from far away. The house was as described and immaculately clean. We had everything we needed in the well stocked kitchen and appreciated the three spot-less bathrooms. The sun shone for us, so we were able to enjoy the wrap-around decked outdoor seating area and take advantage of the kayak and rowing boat. The attention to detail with the provision of sporting equipment and board games was fantastic! We enjoyed walks along the canal and to other easily accessible lakes and had a good choice of cafes, bars and restaurants. My friends all discussed returning in the future as a group and with our families. Thank you Mark for making our weekend.

Superb Sea view apartment, at Fahan Co. Donegal
What a wonderful place to stay looking out over the water. So handy for exploring the local area and a lovely place to rest on our great tour of Ireland. Thank you Martin

On the Waterfront
We had an amazing stay at this beautiful apartment in Kinsale. The space was spotless, stylish, and incredibly well-equipped. It truly felt like a home away from home, the bed was extremely comfortable and the shower was definitely the best I've ever been in. The location was perfect for exploring the town, so many great spots to eat and drink within walking distance. Everything about the stay exceeded my expectations. Would 100% recommend this place to anyone visiting Kinsale

Stunning Ocean Views, Modern Decor, Sleep 6. WiFi
Great location and sea views. Clear instructions on getting into property and parking space. Laura was a responsive host and would definitely return for another visit.

Penthouse Marina Apartment
This is the 2nd time we’ve stayed at Chris’s place. The views are outstanding and the bustling marina is only around the corner. Well equipped kitchen which we cooked in on both occasions. Great location for those interested in walking along the Somerset coastal path. We got to Clevedon this time! The only real drawback is the 4 flights of stairs (worth it once you’re up there! 🤩) which might be tricky for less able people. We will definitely return again 🤗

Seafront Apartment with stunning views
We had a lovely stay at Valerie’s for the new year and couldn’t have asked for more! The photos don’t actually do it justice as the apartment is stunning and a lot bigger than what we expected! Couldn’t recommend Valerie enough x

Harbour View Luxury 2bdrm Retreat in Heart of Cobh
This space was just perfect for our visit to Cobh. It was in the best location, with a gorgeous water view and within walking distance to every thing in town. A big plus was the parking spaces right out front. We parked the car and didn't move it. The space was spotless and uncluttered. Just note, there is a flight of stairs up to the living area. then a second flight to the bedrooms; ok for us but others may find them problematic. I highly recommend this location.

Relaxing Sea Front Apartment - Balcony & Parking
Really loved staying here! The view was amazing. It was quiet and we loved looking out to the water. We played some board games and enjoyed watching everyone on the walking path. Dean left us a nice welcome card with a sweet treat. Along with some local great places to visit for food and activities. Dean was also great to communicate with. The walking path was great to do a nice morning walk. Highly recommend and would come back.

The Wharf - Sleeps 4 - Private Parking
A warm welcome from Jonathon and a great place to stay. Very clean, comfortable and well located. Kids lived being so close to the beach. Would recommend to any one.
