Holiday rentals with lake access in County Cavan

Our family of 5 adults enjoyed our stay at Mary and Ray's home. Each of our 4 rooms had an ensuite bathroom, and the home was equipped with heated floors on the lower level, as well as a wood stove, gas fireplace, and dimmable lights for a cozy evening ambiance. The home has many personal touches like motion sensor night lights in the entrance, staircase, and bedrooms, as well as a display of various family members' drawings and paintings. The view of the lake is amazing. There are many lovely restaurants in the area, including a reservation-only prix-fixe restaurant serving venison and partridge. This is a European home, and we were surprised to see a few added luxuries like a few screened windows as well as a tumble dryer (to soften line-dried clothes). Mary and Ray were incredibly responsive and hospitable to us throughout our stay.

Thank you to Ben for having us to stay. It was very easy to locate, and the check in process was seamless. The place was lovely, and we appreciated the small touches such as providing milk/bread/eggs. Located next to the gorgeous castle, the air bnb provided us a fantastic stay for our cousin’s wedding weekend! We would recommend a stay here if you are visiting the area.

Breda was lovely and helpful. Our kids loved the use of lake and canoe, down every evening. Would definitely stay here again if going down, lovely big spacious house.

Aoife & Shirley were fantastic hosts. We had booked their property travelling with work. Last minute booking and accommodating us was no problem. Made our guys feel so welcome and well looked after. Amazing property and hosts were a pleasure to deal with. Will definitely book if in the area again. Thank you so much!!

We loved our stay in ballyhaise, the house was even more beautiful in person! The whole process was very smooth and Frances and Mary were so accommodating, even allowing us to stay an extra night when we asked. Would definitely stay again, thanks so much both! ☺️

Lovely quiet location short walk to Lough Rynn castle where we attended a wedding.The house was well equipped spotlessly clean and beds were very comfortable Chris also left supplies for breakfast as well as little treats. Thank you Chris

Stephen was an excellent host. His house was spotless. Clear instructions for the kitchen, bathroom, tv and even left sausages, bacon , and eggs in the fridge for breakfast. Highly recommend this host.

Adam's property is in a fantastic location with a beautiful and soothing view over the lake below. A gated estate makes it so peaceful and private. All the amenities in the house that we needed were present and they were of a high standard. We found the property warm and comfortable, and we stayed in winter so that was great. The instructions to the property and how to enter were clear and easy to follow. Adam was very responsive and quick when we asked questions and provided all the information we asked for. He was flexible with our arrival and leaving times which really helped our logistics. We would definitely recommend the property and if we are looking for somewhere in this area again this would be top of our list. Watching the the sun come up on a frosty morning was so lovely!!.

Michael and Nicola have a beautiful home in rural Ireland, surrounded by beautiful gardens and bordering on the water. They were extremely flexible with check-in, even despite our very late arrival. We loved meeting the two dogs and found the local information extremely helpful. I'd particularly like to thank them for the hypo-allergenic pillow option, this was great for one of our guests! I highly recommend their place and wish we could stay again.

Peter was a fantastic host. Looked after us during our four weeks day. His dad brought logs for the fireplace regularly and without us even asking. Lovely little village with amazing pub next door and others just up the road. Shops within a couple of minutes walk. Great walks and scenery within a short drive. Highly recommended!

Beautiful place to stay. The cottage is neat and clean, located in a clam and peaceful environment. The bed were cozy and comfortable to sleep. Laura and Brain were so friendly and gave a very pleasant welcome. Easy access to nearby places. Much recommended for friends and family that prefers to have a nice relaxed stay with affordable price.

Friendly host and only to anxoous to please. Sorted a problem with the water (from a well) by working from early morning until it was finished. Great area and we did the walks that we were told about.

Aishling was a lovely host, very responsive and helpful with our questions. Toddy's cottage is lovely and has everything you need for an enjoyable stay. Lovely country location beside a quiet road for walks. Stove is great and cozy on the dark evening.

Beautiful location and a beautiful cottage. It was spotless and loads of little bits left out for our four legged companion. A short walk to the village. We will be back in the future.

Bruno was very welcoming. He left a very generous amount of food for us - milk, bread, eggs etc. The cottage was lovely and warm when we arrived and stayed that way. It is a cosy and comfortable cottage in a nice, quiet location close to town. Bruno was very helpful in suggesting local hike routes.

We stayed at Jim's cottage on the 2nd leg of our tour of Ireland, the peace & quiet of this area as well as the local history was much appreciated. We were able to visit two of the O'Rourke castle sites as well as O'Rourke's Table which was a pretty streneous hike but well worth the effort, I only regret not having more time to explore & fish the many canals & lakes in the area. Overall the cottage was nearly perfect for our stay & would definately recommend! Thanks, Jim & Erin Paul Roark

Extremely lovely cottage in a beautiful location. Joanna was very helpful and gave lots of recommendations. We had a small issue with one of the bathrooms but it was resolved very quickly. Such a lovely, peaceful place!

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Claragh Cottage. It exceeded my expectations, even surpassing how lovely it looked in the pictures. The setting was idyllic, offering tranquility, peace, and breathtaking views—a truly perfect retreat.
