The official rental portal for next year’s Ryder Cup at Adare Manor, County Limerick, lists 770 properties with weekly rates from €2,688 for a one‑bedroom house in Tipperary up to €99,000 for a nine‑bedroom castle.
Clare Airbnb owner Lorna, speaking on Newstalk’s Lunchtime Live, described the rates as “mad prices” but argued that, when broken down per guest, the cost works out to about €300 per person per night, which she considers good value, especially as whole‑unit rentals allow guests to use kitchens.
Lorna noted that many visitors are likely to stay outside Limerick and travel to the tournament, with some being “helicoptered in and out of Adare” or using drivers, meaning demand for accommodation extends across Limerick, Clare and Tipperary.
She cannot confirm how much extra income short‑term let owners will earn, but expects many to charge roughly double their usual rates for the event period.
