Long Course Accommodation Rates 2021

We have a special rate for students attending longer courses including.

Rates: 


€ 127 per week per person sharing
€ 177 per week private room
Please Note:
  • All on and off-campus accommodation is self-catering. Students on our 12 week & 5/6 Week courses eat a three-course lunch at the cookery school every weekday, and all students partake of a tasting at the end of each Afternoon Demonstration attended. Students must make provisions for their own breakfast and supper.
  • Free-range eggs, organic vegetables and fruit in season from the farm are available in the Garden Shop.
  • Students have the option of single or twin rooms. Some of the single rooms are quite small.
  • If you wish to share a twin room with another student, we will allocate another student of a similar age and the same gender to the room.  We do not recommend sharing accommodation for students over 25 years.
  • Guests are welcome to wander freely through the farm and gardens
