Vacation rentals with lake access in Munster

Rose Cottage is comfortable and magical! We really enjoyed our two nights there. It’s a perfect combination of genuine old-world charm (those wonderful thick walls!) and comfortable, convenient, beautiful updates and interior design. The kitchen is charming and well-equipped for a longer stay. The hosts were incredibly helpful and provided so much useful information in advance. We loved watching the swan on the lake opposite the cottage! Great launch point for exploring County Clare. Very much recommended and we’d love to come again!

We only got to stay one night—wish we could’ve stayed longer! Such a beautiful place. Conor is an extremely thoughtful and kind host.

This place is amazing!!! Had all the amenities you could ask for! I love how peaceful the area was. Enjoyed walking to the lake and were lucky enough to see a rainbow one evening. I wish I would have stayed longer but hope to come back someday!!!

Noreens place is the best way to see Ireland and experience it fully. There is space to relax and enjoy yourself. The recommendations need to be listened to. She leaves flyers for every thing on the bookshelf incase you need help planning. She will answer any questions and will deal with any problems. Her communication is second it none and she really is the loveliest lady ever. I can't wait to go back. Thank you Noreen

We stayed two nights and wish we had stayed for two weeks! The house and gardens were beautiful and had everything we could need, and probably more. Loads of toys and an outdoor play area for kids, we didn’t even need to bring travel cots. The house is really private and peaceful, it’s about 5 minutes drive to Garrykennedy harbour. Really recommend for a group with kids.

When every single review is 5 stars then there are high expectations & every one of those were exceeded! A beautiful, spacious, clutter free, airy, bright house with a lovely patio area and gardens. Everything that is needed is in the house! Lough Hyne, Skibereen and Baltimore are all nearby. James was fabulous, he facilitated all of our requests and was a pleasure to deal with! Even though we were unlucky with the weather, the house made the trip very special nonetheless!

Fabulous accomodation! 🌼 A designer house filled with everything you would need and even more. Such a beautiful and peaceful location, perfect for a family getaway 🤩

Had a great stay at the lakehouse, its a beautiful location and very remote, so extremely peaceful. We were lucky with the weather and had a perfectly calm lake and magnificant sunsets most evenings. The house has amazing lake views and you could spend hours relaxing in the living room enjoying the serenity. We liked having access to the private pier, to do some fishing didn't require a boat, and pike and perch were caught every day. Having a great supply of coffee pods and a machine was great and appreciated. A very special house that I hope to return to again some day. Madeline was a great host and made us feel very welcome. Rory and Bal

I stayed at Brian's place for six weeks and was looking for peace and quite so I could read and reflect. I also like walking, particularly in wilderness areas. The location, being just outside Killarney was perfect. The flat was private and the Killarney National Park, which is extensive, was only a short drive away. I also used this accommodation as a base for visiting other places: Ring of Kerry, Dingle, Tralee and Cork, which were not that far away. The trains are great, and I used them to travel to Tralee and Cork. The flat itself was ideal with bedroom, kitchen-sitting room and bathroom, which had all the necessary things. Heating, internet and TV were excellent. Brian and his wife were very accommodating and responded quickly to any questions I had. At the same time, they respected my privacy. I had a wonderful stay there and highly recommend to others.

The apartment is in a spacious, beautiful, peaceful rural setting including a herb and lettuce garden that we were free to use (spring-summer has its advantages!). Pristine apartment (warm and comfortable with good kitchen and bathroom facilities); great location for exploring the south-west peninsulars of Mizen, Sheep's Head and Beara. Walkable local village. Friendly, responsive host who lives on site. A perfect AirBnB stay. Thank you Stefan.

a lovely apartment with everything you might need. Slept very well with the firm matress and quality bedlinen. Good shower pressure and lots of towels in bathroom. The pizza downstairs in the bar was so good that we had it 2 nights in a row. Really friendly and helpful staff in the bar who gave us plenty of recommendations for the area. The pub was full each night but we didn't have any issues with sound or noise from below. Highly recommend staying here.

Great place well worth it. Owner was nice!

Thank you Marilyn for such a welcoming place. We felt right at home immediately. Thank you also for the extras left in the fridge & pantry. Your recommendation for dinner in Kilkenny was spot on …. and it would be remiss of me to not say a huge thank you to Ted for his welcome & farewell. What a beautiful dog.

We absolutely loved our stay! All of the reviews of Roland and Fabienne’s welcoming nature are 100% accurate. We enjoyed everything to our stay. The chickens are adorable, and our daughter had a wonderful time feeding them. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Mary took great care of us throughout the stay. Very precise description to get to the house. Basket of bread, jam and cakes and always ready to help us and anticipate our requests. The house is perfectly equipped. The huge shower and the views from the living room and the bedroom are splendid. Everything was perfect. we recommend it.

Wonderful location, great parking and comfortable beds! Lovely communications with the owner. We so enjoyed the charming town of Dingle!

We had a fantastic long weekend in Caroline's place, everything was as described, beautiful house and garden, very cosy and comfortable beds. Great location for exploring West Cork in a very quiet location.

Highly recommend-a dream location and beautiful interior. Host was excellent

Abolutely fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Right on the water. Very peaceful yet a great pub at 2 minutes walk. 3 very comfortable bedrooms. Great kitchen and living room. Beautiful (really!) surroundings. The whole place oozes charm. We will be back!

I have stayed in this cottage quite a few times over the years - and I always enjoy it immensely. The cottage is lovely, decorated in a style that suits its age, and set in the most stunning scenery. It feels as though you're in the middle of nowhere - it is so quiet the deer come right up to the patch of grass in front of the house in the evenings and there are so many different birds it's almost like an orchestra - but you're definitely not: There are two good restaurants in the area, a nice pub near a harbour, a lunchroom in gorgeous gardens and a very well stocked shop-and-tearoom only a 20 minute drive away. So yes, I will come again!

We had a lovely stay here despite the weather! Gerry & Margaret were very friendly and helpful and their 2 Jack Russell’s were delightful 😊. House was clean & tidy & had everything we needed. Beautiful view of the Lough. So peaceful and quiet.

Pat and Mary Angela are marvellous hosts. When we arrived the fires were lit, the table was set and there were gorgeous scones made by Mary Angela. They are both so friendly and gave lots of recommendations of places to visit. Their lovely cottage is perfectly situated for exploring Galway. It is definitely a home from home. My husband and I along with our 3 adult children and 2 Jack Russells had a great time there and we had everything we needed. We also loved Pat and Mary Angela's cafe and bookshop in Oughterard Village. Well worth a visit. Couldn't recommend this cottage highly enough!

Stunning setting and ideal accommodation overlooking the mountains and adjacent Killarney National Park. Could not have asked for a better hostess in Eileen, who was always helpful and friendly and who pointed us in all the right directions for a perfect holiday. Throw in three gentle pet donkeys and a farm cat, who could ask for more? Bliss!

As the pictures tell, this is a charming cottage in the country. Loved to visit with the cows behind us! We all agreed it felt like our grandmothers home, comfortable and welcoming. Not too far away from civilization Irish style. The sun room on a blustery rainy day was awesome. We were very happy and felt very safe! Emily was lovely! Very thankful we chose this cottage.
