Golf Event Stays is a dedicated property-listing marketplace that helps homeowners in Limerick, Clare, Kerry, Tipperary, Cork, Galway and other practical travel areas reach visitors searching for private accommodation during the event.

Why the Ryder Cup 2027 Creates an Accommodation Opportunity
The Ryder Cup is one of the most watched golf events in the world, and the 2027 edition at Adare Manor is expected to draw a large number of international visitors from the United States, the United Kingdom and Continental Europe, as well as Irish domestic golf fans. Many of those visitors will travel in groups — families, groups of friends, corporate parties and golf supporters travelling together — and a private home with several bedrooms, shared living areas, a kitchen, parking and outdoor space can offer something that a block of hotel rooms simply cannot.
Traditional hotel accommodation close to Adare Manor is limited in supply. Visitors willing to base themselves within a practical driving distance of the venue may actively seek private homes that offer more space, better group value and a more comfortable shared experience. This creates a meaningful opportunity for homeowners whose properties are suitable and well presented.
You do not need to run a permanent holiday-rental business. Many homeowners choose to make their property available only for the Ryder Cup period — a straightforward, time-limited arrangement rather than an ongoing commercial undertaking.
Is Your Property Suitable?
A wide range of properties may be suitable for Ryder Cup 2027 visitors. The most important factors are not necessarily proximity to Adare Manor but the overall combination your home offers:
- Number of bedrooms and bathrooms — homes that can sleep four, six or more guests in separate bedrooms are particularly well suited to travelling groups.
- Shared living space — a comfortable sitting room, dining area and well-equipped kitchen make a private home much more practical for a group than a cluster of hotel rooms.
- Parking — off-road parking is a significant advantage for guests arriving by car or with hired vehicles.
- Road access — clear and manageable access to the N21, N20, N18 or M18 corridors helps guests plan their daily journey to the venue.
- Nearby facilities — access to local towns, restaurants, shops and pubs adds practical value, especially for guests staying for the full event week.
Your property does not need to be in Adare village itself. Homes in Limerick City, Newcastle West, Rathkeale, Croom, Shannon, Ennis, Tralee, Killarney, suitable parts of Tipperary, Cork City and Galway City have all been relevant accommodation areas for major events at Adare Manor. Properties closer to the venue — typically within a 10 to 40-minute normal-traffic drive — may attract the most direct interest from daily attendees, while properties in Cork or Galway may appeal to visitors combining the Ryder Cup with a wider Irish trip. All drive times are approximate under normal traffic conditions; event traffic and temporary transport arrangements on match days will increase journey times.
How to Estimate Your Potential Rental Income
Before creating your listing, it is worth forming a view of what your property could potentially earn during Ryder Cup week. Rental value depends on several factors: your location and approximate drive time to Adare Manor, the number of bedrooms and guests accommodated, the quality and presentation of the home, parking, available dates and the overall facilities you can offer.

- Decide your available dates. Consider whether you want to offer the full event period (13–19 September 2027), just the match-play days (17–19 September), or a longer window that includes arrival and departure days either side. Longer stays are often attractive to groups travelling from abroad.
- Confirm guest capacity. Work out how many guests can stay comfortably — not just the maximum possible, but a realistic and comfortable number given the bedrooms and bathrooms available.
- Prepare clear photographs. Good photographs are the single biggest influence on whether a visitor enquires about your property. Cover bedrooms, bathrooms, the kitchen, sitting room, dining area, outdoor space and parking. Photograph on a bright day and tidy each room before shooting.
- Write an accurate description. Describe your bedrooms and bed types, bathrooms (shower, bath or both), kitchen facilities, parking spaces, outdoor area, Wi-Fi, heating, and any additional amenities. Include your approximate drive time to Adare Manor and the nearest airport or town.
- Set your price and payment terms. Decide the total rental price, a reasonable booking deposit to secure the dates, and a clear payment schedule. Consider whether you will require a refundable security deposit. Make sure your cancellation terms are clear — what happens if the guest cancels, and what happens if circumstances change.
- Create your listing on Golf Event Stays. Submit your property details, photographs and pricing through the platform. The standard self-managed listing fee for Ryder Cup 2027 is a one-off payment of €149. There is no monthly charge and no commission on your rental income under the standard self-managed model.
- Respond to enquiries and confirm a suitable guest. When an enquiry arrives, confirm the lead guest's name, contact details, group size, who will be staying and their arrival plans. A clear written agreement protects both you and your guests.
- Prepare your home. Clean thoroughly, secure personal belongings in a locked cupboard or private room, provide clean bed linen and towels, check all appliances and confirm Wi-Fi. Leave simple instructions for heating, hot water and key collection.
- Check in your guests and inspect afterwards. Provide check-in details in advance. After checkout, inspect the property, confirm key return and arrange cleaning promptly.

Does my property need to be beside Adare Manor to attract guests?
No. Properties within a practical driving distance of Adare Manor can be attractive, particularly where they offer several bedrooms, parking, comfortable shared space and good road access.
Many groups attending the Ryder Cup look for a private home that offers several bedrooms, a comfortable shared living area, a kitchen and off-road parking — something that a block of separate hotel rooms cannot provide. A property does not need to be immediately beside Adare Manor to be considered. Homes in Limerick City, Newcastle West, Shannon, Ennis, and suitable parts of Kerry, Tipperary, Cork and Galway have all been relevant accommodation areas for major events. What matters most is the overall combination your property offers: bedroom count, guest capacity, comfort, parking, road access and value for a travelling group. Be clear in your listing about your approximate drive time to the venue so guests can make an informed choice.
Do I need to use a written rental agreement?
Yes — a short written agreement is strongly recommended. It records what both sides have agreed and helps prevent misunderstandings.
A straightforward written agreement should record the homeowner and lead guest names, the property address, arrival and departure dates, check-in and checkout times, the total rental price, payment dates, the booking deposit, any refundable security deposit, the number of agreed guests, main house rules and cancellation terms. The purpose of the agreement is to record what both sides have agreed clearly and simply — it does not need to be a complicated legal document. Clear written terms protect both you and your guests and reduce the risk of disputes.
Should I contact my insurer before renting my home for the Ryder Cup?
Yes. Contact your insurer before the stay, explain that paying guests may stay for a short period, and confirm whether your current policy is suitable.
Before welcoming guests, it is sensible to contact your home insurer and explain that paying guests may be staying for a short event-related period during Ryder Cup 2027. Ask whether your existing policy provides suitable cover and whether a temporary adjustment is required. Requirements differ between policies, and arranging any adjustment in advance is straightforward in most cases. Do not assume your standard home policy covers a paying-guest arrangement without checking.
Do I need to declare rental income from Ryder Cup guests?
Rental income may need to be declared. Keep a record of payment received and retain receipts for direct costs. The exact treatment depends on your individual circumstances.
Income from renting your property during the Ryder Cup may need to be declared for tax purposes. It is sensible to keep a record of the total payment you receive and to retain receipts for any direct costs associated with the stay, such as cleaning or guest linen. The precise tax treatment depends on your individual circumstances and the nature of the arrangement. If you are unsure, a straightforward conversation with an accountant or tax adviser is the best course of action. Tax treatment can depend on individual circumstances, so homeowners should seek professional advice if they are uncertain about their position.
When is the best time to list my property for Ryder Cup 2027?
Listing early gives your property more time to be discovered and more opportunity to receive enquiries. There is no benefit to waiting.
Visitors — especially those travelling from the United States, the United Kingdom and Continental Europe — often begin researching and planning their Ryder Cup accommodation well in advance of the September 2027 event. Listing your property early means suitable groups have more time to find your home, consider your offering and make an enquiry. You can update your photographs, description and pricing at any time after your listing goes live. Starting the process now, even if all the details are not yet finalised, gives your property a longer window of visibility. Listing early does not guarantee a booking, but it does give you the best opportunity to be considered by groups planning ahead.
