Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Lough Derg

We really enjoyed our stay — the house is spacious yet cosy and warm, with a lovely homely feel. The setting was perfect: quiet, peaceful, and still conveniently close to the town. Our hosts were very welcoming and thoughtful. We'd love to come back for another getaway — highly recommend!

Gillian was an amazing host and made our stay comfortable. House was spacious, clean and beds comfortable. We would stay again

This was the perfect combination of "rural" and "suburban". On a peaceful, country lane, away from the bustle of Tipperary, yet only a 5 minute drive to all the shops and conveniences one would need. Surrounded by sheep, cattle, horses and meadows, it is the quintessential Irish property. Thoughtfully remodeled, it provided all the modern necessities without losing its basic charm. Mary was immediately available to answer questions, and provided excellent feedback. The house itself is well arranged, comfortable, and welcoming...small, but roomy enough so as not to feel crowded. The two fireplaces were a wonderful bonus. Our only issue is the size of the main bedroom. Having to deal with the original floor plan during the remodel, the "master" bedroom is large enough for only a double bed - barely. I only wish I had found out about Mary's other Airbnb rental - in Dublin - before we rented someone else's there. I'm sure hers would have been MUCH nicer than the one we ended up renting!

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.

WONDERFUL place! Location is amazing, easily walkable to Eyre Square and all of Galway! It was great for our family trip as we needed multiple bedrooms and the fact that all but one have an en suite made it perfect! Geraldine was incredibly responsive and wonderful when our plans changed slightly due to weather. There is only one sitting area, which was a little tight for our group, but we were mostly out exploring the city so it didn't really matter! Can't stress enough how perfect the location is if you are looking for an easily accessible/walkable experience!

Had a great time staying Katie’s! An excellent location, just right off the motor way and a quick taxi trip into town. The house was spotless and spacious with enough room for us all. Will definitely be coming back again for our next Galway trip! :)

This place was incredible!! Amazing host, very responsive, and again the place was amazing!! The views from the home are breathtaking!! Amazing sunrise and sunsets. The kitchen was fabulous, my family enjoyed cooking many meals in the kitchen. The views from the kitchen were awesome! Bathrooms are awesome, very very spacious home! My whole family was super impressed and happy with everything! Highly recommend!!

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

The apartment was exactly as described and pictured. The host was very helpful and responded quickly to an inquiry. I would recommend Valerie’s place to anyone staying in the area.

Great stay, lovely place, Sheila was very responsive & friendly, perfect place to relax after a week of work. Would highly recommend & look forward to staying again

Padraic’s place was the perfect location in the heart of West End, Galway. He was an excellent host who was very responsive and flexible to my needs. The unit was a great 3 bedroom that had all you needed to a visit to this lovely city. I highly recommend it and will definitely be returning.

The apartment was all that we hoped for. It is located blocks from the heart of old Galway, is a comfortable apartment, and has a well stocked kitchen (we like to cook). Joan was proactively communicative and there were even some treats in the refrigerator when we arrived. We are touring around Europe; working during the day and tourist-ing on weekends and this apartment worked perfectly. It was a wonderful, four block walk to our shared work space (Market Street PorterHouse). The walk brought us right through old Galway, the folks at PorterHouse were so helpful when we needed anything, and we were able to take beautiful walks through the streets or along the canal when we needed a mid-day break. We were also just blocks from the train station when it was time for weekend excursions.

We had a super stay at Willie's place. The apartment was very stylish and comfy and had everything we needed including a great coffee machine. The pizzas (and pints) in the pub downstairs were delicious! Will definitely return in future.

great location, extremely warm and comfortable, Teresa was a very friendly, helpful and responsive, she thought of everything from toiletries to cereal, orange juice and coffee for the morning. couldn't recommend this listing/ host enough

Lovely Apartment, very central to all amenities in Adare and close to all venues, would definitely book again!

Barry was an excellent host and easy to communicate with. The apartment was a nicely renovated older apartment and very comfortable. The area was perfect to explore Ennis and walking distance to everything. The location was also great to get out and explore surrounding towns and areas. We very much enjoyed our stay!

Lovely apartment to rest and relax. It is located on the edge of town but only a few mins drive away. The apartment is surrounded by green fields, woodland and nature. The terrace is a perfect spot to watch the sunset. The apartment is well equipped and homely. Tom and his wife are friendly and welcoming. It was the perfect place for what I needed!

It was a wonderful experience, the fireplace, the silence and privacy was wonderful. She is super attentive and very friendly, it was unique to spend Christmas in this cosy cottage, I will definitely come back more often. I highly recommend it, it's the realisation of a dream.

Michelle’s place was in a great location so close to all the things in the city and just outside! We enjoyed the modern decor and the patio outside was so cute! We stayed over St Patrick’s day, so it was a bit loud outside at times, but, the place was comfy and suited our family of 5 adults well. Would book again on a return trip.

What a fabulous place to stay and use as a base for the Ennis area. Angele was the perfect host providing detailed and helpful information and recommendations. The 2-bedroom unit was immaculately clean, and stylishly furnished. Would not hesitate to stay here again ... 10/10

Perfect location if you want to easily reach Galway. Pauline paid great attention to every detail, and the apartment was very clean. Strongly recommended!

Our 2nd time staying in recent months and this place is absolutely perfect if you are traveling towards Thurles. Nice quiet location with plenty of parking. John and Margaret are really lovely hosts and I will definitely be booking again the next time we are in the area.

Very cozy place with very beautiful surroundings and local town. Great location for exploring this part of Ireland. Thank you very much for having us Dorothy :)

We enjoyed our stay at Sue’s place. The apartment had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay and the comfy beds and pillows were great after a busy day of exploring. Sue is a wonderful host who is lovely to talk to and was eager to make us feel at home. The apartment was very clean and comfy and we look forward to staying there again.
