Cottage vacation rentals in Carlow

The BEST Airbnb we have ever stayed at. Eamonn is the most gracious host. communication was excellent- the best we have ever experienced by a host. He takes pride in his gorgeous cottage. we loved spending our family time there with the most stunning views. The cottage has everything you need and its all TOP class! like a 5 star hotel yet feels like a secluded luxury home! Can't wait to come back!

It was so beautiful! It’s a great wilderness escape to wind down and relax.

My favourite place on Earth 😊 While it’s close enough to Dublin, it’s so private and peaceful it feels like you are completely away from civilisation in the most positive way. The surrounding are absolutely stunning, and there is a lot of sightseeing nearby. This place is just perfect for disconnecting from the busy city life. And lastly, Richard and Ben are fantastic hosts, very friendly, responsive and helpful. I would highly recommend this place and will definitely be coming back here myself 💚

Sonia's home is one of my favorites in all of my travels on Airbnb. As a host myself, I felt immediately at home staying here at their countryside retreat for 4 nights this summer. They were amazing hosts - very responsive, insightful and caring! The pictures match the beautiful setting, the home is beautifully laid out with plenty of room to spread out as a family or a group of friends - a living room, kitchen, dining room on the main floor, plenty of outdoor space and 4 bedrooms and two full baths upstairs. Lots of toys for kids as well as a tree house in the yard, a tv room to watch movies/Netflix and a beautiful kitchen to prepare a meal. We loved the cows grazing in your front yard and view of the lake! It's a 10 min drive to Glasson town and 20 minutes to Athlone - a bustling city. About 90 min from Dublin Airport and an easy drive. You will love your stay here - private, quiet and relaxing and also strong Wifi! We can't wait to visit again!

We had a great stay at Dee's. The location was perfect and very close to the beach. Accommodation was very comfortable and clean. The fresh eggs were a lovely touch. Dee and Paul were also great hosts.

Wonderful stay at the apartment. Amazing location and so walkable. Enjoyed ourselves immensely and Dave was very flexible and helpful in getting us weary travelers to our home.

What an incredible experience! Helen and Frank were welcoming and generous hosts. They provided lots of great suggestions about the areas’ points of interest as well as sharing information about the important role the house had in Irish history. So wonderful! The renovated barn is what we had hoped for in order to experience living in a cozy, traditional countryside cottage! Spotless and had everything we needed. Eggs, rashers, butter, milk and juice in the fridge as well as cereal and snacks!

We had such an amazing stay! The house was so cozy, we immediately felt at home! Such beautiful surroundings, a very peaceful place! The hosts were very kind, helpful and responsive! Definitely recommend booking with them! We hope to be back as soon as we can!!

What an inviting cottage, complete with everything that one would need for a serene getaway. Plenty of room with a kitchen, sunny alcove facing the garden, and spacious bedroom. We were just passing through on our travels, but if I were a local, I'd book this place again for a few days of quiet contemplation.

We had a lovely stay at Fardy's Cottage, the house is spotless and has everything you need. The bedrooms were really nicely decorated and everyone slept very well! The weather was fantastic when we were there so we made use of the garden as well as spending time at the local beaches, Grange beach and Baginbun which I would highly recommend. There is lots to see in the area, Hook Head and Tintern Abbey are only a short drive away and well worth a visit. We brought our dog and the garden is secure so she was able to have free roam outside.

A beautifully and extremely well equipped home that was a perfect base for us to explore the region. The elegantly designed cottage was comfortable and spotlessly clean and the private enclosed back garden was the icing on the cake with the beautiful sunshine and our dog who could potter about freely. Celine as a host was extremely friendly in her interactions and was very responsive to all messages. I have no qualms about recommending this listing to others.

Such a warm welcome from lovely hosts, who keep the place charming, with thoughts put in everything, up to a delicious home-made pie!. Gertie is really welcoming but leaves you your space, and the cottage is like a heaven for tired spirits, with the song of birds all around and a beautiful view on the meadows. I will come back!

Loved our stay at the lodge! Jo was super responsive, met us at the lodge to check us in and drop off bread, milk, butter and eggs which were greatly appreciated. beds was super comfy, and the house had everything we needed.

Highly recommend. This was a great overnight stay. We loved our time in beautiful Kilmacthomas. Highly recommend.

Peaceful and serene location .We felt right at home from the start .Our little dog loved the nearby beach and so many beautiful walks to choose from .Excellent location for cycling to Rosslare harbour or Kilmore Quay stopping off at the pub at Lady Island on way home . We will be back !!

Perfect place for R&R. I enjoyed 2 nights in Barbara’s beautiful cottage. So peaceful and comfortable. The cottage has everything you need and is so cozy. The bed was extremely comfortable and had luxury bedding. Barbara left everything for a very tasty breakfast. The Idyllic courtyard is perfect to sit and relax. Perfect spot for exploring Carlow and Wicklow. Would love to stay again.

We loved Helen’s place. It’s located in her farm/cafe complex, and it’s super cute and special. We felt welcomed, and Helen was very friendly and accommodating from beginning to end. Staying here was a highlight of our trip to Ireland!

Sash’s home was so welcoming. A beautiful oasis to spend time with loved ones. We loved cooking meals and enjoying her outdoor patio. Sarah was an incredible host always responsive. Thank you for the lovely welcome gift and for making our final days in Ireland so memorable!

We enjoyed staying at Ashleigh's place. Everything we needed was there and we were able to have breakfast and evening meal in the house. We were visiting family half an hour away so it was convenient for us.

We spent 3 nights at Susan's cottage. Susan's was a great host. The cottage was spacious, well equipped and clean. The surrounding area was very peaceful. We had a great time and would recommend Susan's cottage to anyone.
