The Old School House is conveniently located near the Ballinskelligs Pier if one plans to visit the ancient monastic settlement on top of Skellig Michael. The rooms were warm, clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was delicious. The Old School House is operated by two of the most genuinely inviting and lovely people you will ever meet.

I stayed for four nights at The Old School House and can only say how much I enjoyed my stay. Dominick and Lillian were very welcoming, friendly and hospitable and the house was homely and set in a very beautiful area. It's a great area for walking and thanks to Dominick and Lillian, who kindly drove me to a few... More

It is close to Cahiersveen town which has nice pubs and restaurants. I really enjoyed my stay there and was very welcomed by Lillian and Dominick 0 Byrne. I was very much... More

Great hospitality - when we arrived, quite hungry, Dominic prepared some delicious fish for us. We spent the evening together with our hosts in the spacious lounge, chatting away for hours in front of the fireplace. A very warm welcome and atmosphere, which really made the difference - we will definitely come back, next time for a bit longer. Excellent... More

Stayed with Dom and Lill last year and had a ball with them. Good atmosphere, great company and excellent food! Apart from having all the 'comforts of home' we got a whole pile of friendliness and good heartedness and alot extra thrown in as an unexpected bonus. Can recommend The Old School House to anyone. Looking forward to my next... More

Hi People. Just to say if you want to enjoy Ireland stay here . The owners off this B&B have a wonderful out look on life. They make you very feel at home to their old Irish School House. This was the most treasured place in rural Ireland. We had a very spacious room with great views of the Mountain... More

Ten of us stayed there last week. Not an experiance any of us want to repeat. The beds were not made daily and the bed linen didn't fit the bed. The rooms were dirty, damp and smelly. Our rooms were not serviced daily, we had dirty damp towels and had to finally ask for fresh ones which were grudgingly provided,... More

This B&B is one of the worst we have ever stayed in. The rooms, though fairly light were still dingy & smelled musty. I wasn't entirely convinced that the sheets were clean. Breakfast was poor & not much of it. However if you must stay there do not, under any circumstances, risk the evening meal. It was truely awful, tough... More
