saying about us
Old Court House Holiday Home 4 bed

Ventry Farm Parlour Cottage
"Authentic cottage with simple and adorable accommodations. Walked to the beach and local pub daily. Far enough out of the bustle of Dingle, but close enough to enjoy all it has to offer and at the peak point of the Slea Head loop. Gracious and cheerful hospitality from our hostess!"

Castlemartyr Holiday Lodges
"Fantastic, modern designer house. Luxury homes in a luxurious setting, just 20 minutes from Cork. For longer stays of a week or more, it is economical. A house very different from the typical ones in Ireland, which are often quite similar."

Dingle Harbour Cottages
"I can’t say enough about our stay at the Dingle Harbour Cottages. First, the cottages are clean and well equipped. The location is perfect. But the customer service was/is spectacular! My son hid his passport while we were there. Deirdre, the property manager, was able to locate it and arranged to have it delivered to us before we had to leave Ireland. Dingle Harbour Cottages have a customer for life."

Heyward Mews
"The property has an excellent location with close proximity to the M50, the airport, and shopping areas, yet it is surrounded by nature and golf courses. The manager, Mr. Mark Hurley, is very helpful and knowledgeable. He made sure our stay was comfortable and was always reachable if needed. The property is well managed and clean. Thanks to the cleaning staff for preparing it for our stay. We would love to stay here again in the future. Kindly maintain the good standards!"

Ballybunion Holiday Cottage No 21
"House was very clean, with two recently renovated bathrooms, both with electric showers and wall heaters. Beds were very comfortable. Wifi and a smart TV in the sitting room were brilliant for the showery days. The orientation of the house meant sunshine filled the kitchen and sitting room throughout the day, keeping it warm. There were heaters in the rooms, but we did not need to use them. Lovely walk up and down to the beach every day. Would happily stay here again!"

We loved staying here for ten days. Communication with the manager was very good via WhatsApp, and she was always helpful if anything was needed."
