4. The Beara Bus – all aboard
The opportunity to live on a converted bus for a few days? Yes, please. The Beara Bus is in Cahermore, and it is a luxuriously comfortable stay.
The views from the bus are breathtaking. The bus boasts WiFi, Netflix, and even a PS4 to keep you entertained if all else fails, but we doubt it will come to that in this amazing Airbnb.
The bus even has its own specially catered menu provided by host Lorna, who runs a local tearoom. The reviews are only singing praises. This unique bus conversion is 100% one of the most incredible Airbnbs in County Cork.

3. Quirky land boat – close to the beach with donkeys
Did somebody say land boat with donkeys? That’s right, we did! The Nesbitt is a funky little 37 ft (11.2 m) boat that was destined for the scrapyard.
Instead, it was rescued and converted into one of the most incredible Airbnbs in County Cork. The beautifully quirky boat is furnished with recycled materials and makes for a very cosy and comfortable overnight stay.
It also happens to be watched over by three gorgeous donkeys. If there are animals at the site, then we’re all over it.

Leave your worries at the very edge of the forest and spend a relaxing few days in a different world in this beautiful treehouse, one of the most incredible Airbnbs in County Cork.
The phone signal is low here, so this is the perfect place to escape for a few days. Breakfast is also provided, with all the supplies ready and waiting for your arrival.
