Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Galway

What a great place! Can’t wait to go back!

Beautiful and comfy place with a lovely backyard. Maria was very helpful with her recommendations for restaurants and Galway market. Really short walk to groceries, and about a 30 minute walk to downtown.

This is our second stay at Patricias house. The house is really spacious, clean and well maintained with lots of rooms for family activities. The surroundings are really quiet and peaceful but only a few minutes drive to a few lively areas with good pubs and restaurants. Lots to do in the house and garden, the bikes are an added bonus. We have always found Patricia to be very friendly and helpful, a fantastic host. Thank you again for letting us stay in your lovely home.

Friends and I had a wonderful time. Walkable to the town, recommend Kings Head for food and music, we also discovered Harry’s the last day of our trip, which we walked by several times from the Airbnb. Nice walk to the pier and the surrounding areas.

Very spacious and comfortable! I would definitely stay again. The “soccer” is a great element if you travel with children.

I cannot say enough about the peaceful location of Rhona’s house. It was truly magical. The view is stunning, the area is quiet, the birds singing in the morning accompanied by an occasional bleeting sheep in the distance was invigorating. The home was spacious and filled with sunlight. A place I would definitely return to and highly recommend!

was a lovely location, sea down the road, village had food, friendly cafes and fun stuff to do. fireplace wasn't working but the landlord told us in advance and the heating was perfectly warm for the weather we had. couldn't have been more helpful and communication was excellent.

Excellent. We had a peaceful 2 nights at Sandras. A local taxi brought us to and from the village. We walked from the house to the Dun Aengus fort then got a taxi back to pick up our bags en route to the ferry. Sandra kindly let us store the bags at the house after check out. 5 stars 🌟

Michael and Breda's home is peaceful and a 5 min drive for grocery or gas. It was as described. We were able to make our breakfast and dinner there. We like that they recycle. Very relaxing after sightseeing all day.

Lovely house in beautiful, peaceful surroundings. Andrew was super helpful and very quick to respond to any questions. The house was so private and tranquil, really good space to get away from it all. Would highly recommend.

Anne is a fantastic host. the house is fab. really cosy and extremely well equipped. Anne had left some food for us on arrival and some delicious home made raspberry jam. there is loads to do around. beautiful part of the country. I could not recommend it enough. we had a super stay. 10 out of 10

We had a lovely stay in this peaceful little cottage. Very cosy with the fire. Was very warm up on the mezzanine.

Beautiful surroundings!

Had a great stay at Danny’s place, should have stayed for more than one night. The apartment is lovely and comfortable with all you need, but the surroundings are what make the place most special. The garden is a great place to chill out if the weather is nice and feels very private. The walk takes you through a gorgeous landscape of little woods, small hills and rocky outcrops with great views around. Danny was a great host. Definitely recommend if you’re in the area.

Lovely place to stay. Quiet residential street but very close to stroll down to town centre. House had nice layout and terrace area overlooking river. Pat was very welcoming and it was a lovely touch to have some basic groceries in the house for us. House well furnished and good utilities. Plenty of restaurants open nearby and even some live music which was great for so late in the year.

Can we give 6 stars?? Orlagh is the most lovely host and gave a lot of useful recommendations, thanks Orlagh for the warm welcome. The place is gorgeous and the view is stunning! There is a walkable loop around that offers incredible views of the land and the sea. It’s just STUNNING and when it’s raining (it’s Ireland after all it has to!) you can snuggle in front of the fire place!! We loved our stay and we will be back - we recommend this place 200%

Hawthorn House is a stunning and peaceful retreat nestled in the heart of Ros Cíde, offering an authentic experience of Connemara's rugged beauty. From the moment we arrived, it was evident that the property was carefully designed, and meticulously maintained, providing a warm and inviting atmosphere. The house is situated deep in the idyllic landscape, far from the hustle and bustle - a perfect choice for those seeking tranquillity and immersion in nature. Every amenity was in excellent condition, from the fully equipped kitchen to the cosy living spaces that were perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. Irene, the house manager, was an absolute joy to communicate with. Always prompt and accommodating, she ensured that our stay was seamless and enjoyable. If you’re looking for a secluded escape to truly appreciate the rugged charm of Connemara, Hawthorn House is an exceptional choice. We left feeling refreshed and connected to the beauty of Ireland’s west. Highly recommended!

What a beautiful location and place to stay! We slept wonderfully in this peaceful country retreat. The location is about 1/2way between Dublin and Kylemore Abbey, we used it as a stopover on our way towards Dublin after Kylemore. The value would be really great for a large party, for us there were only 5 so we didn’t even use all the rooms (the kids wanted to sleep together, they were excited for the bunk beds). We wandered around the estate a little and even took a stroll around the Friary ruins in town. There is a playground at the entrance to the estate area that the kids loved. We had a great time with the fire pit in the outside area behind the place. It is a renovated old building so it did have some problems, and our impression was that the hosts are new to this process, but what they lacked in experience they made up for in enthusiasm. Rowan was VERY responsive, and tried his best to resolve any issues quickly. We would stay here again.

This is a beautiful place ,great location fabulous scenery and very private location with a very relaxing hot tub. As for the hosts they were amazing super friendly and done everything they could to make our stay enjoyable. Highly recommend and we will be back soon. Thank you very much.

We had such a lovely stay at the Strawberry Shepard’s Hut. It was very peaceful and exactly what we needed to unwind. The place was spotless, really cozy, and had everything we needed and more. The host was so friendly and welcoming too, which made the whole experience even nicer. Honestly, it was even better than the pictures. Would 100% recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet escape – we’ll definitely be back!

We absolutely loved our night in the Bluebell hut. Host was onsite to greet us - so friendly and gave us all the info we needed for our stay. The location is idyllic, the hot tub was amazing, the kids loved toasting marshmallows over the fire and the shepherd’s hut was so cozy and beautifully decorated. Worth every penny! It was the highlight of our trip. We hope to return one day!

Great break from the rat race. Exactly what we needed. Colm was attentive and accommodating our late arrival. It was great that we could have our doggie with us. Worth it!

We loved our stay. The place was so cosy with really comfortable beds and lovely underfloor heating. The location was fabulous, it felt completely remote and yet it was a five minute drive to a lovely town that had a large Supervalue and a lovely bakery. We explored lots of places such as the Cliffs of Moher and Lahinch which were both close by. So light and airy inside with beautiful colours that reflected the landscape, a very interesting array of books as well. Our favourite part was the barrel hot tub where you can look up at the stars at night (there are so many because of the lack of light pollution in the area). Definitely check this place out!
