Year 2010
Its hard to believe our time at Castleoliver Farm has come to an end. We had such a great time exploring this part of Ireland. Thanks
Alyce for your excellent suggestions of what to see and do. Your advice really helped us set our priorities. There was another plus
to staying here, imagine coming "half way" around the World and finding a fellow Model T Ford lover! Maybe you can come to
Canada sometime and Participate in one of our trips. Thanks again, John and Susan.....Canada September 2010.
A fabulous holiday back in Dads home County. Thank you for all your welcoming hospitality and making such a beautiful coach
house. We loved our time here and want very much to come back and see you all again......Hugh, Rebecca, Hannah and Mark
Scotland, October 2010.
Our stay at Castleoliver Farm was delightful. We loved the dogs welcome and the chickens visit at the front door. Alyce you were a
great help in making us feel welcome here. We loved the "Trad" music in Ballyorgan especially, but the whole area was so
beautiful- wonderful memories to take home with us.........Linda and Murray, Ontario, Canada, September 2010.
Great "Mini" adventure in our Mini Coopers. Thank you for the Irish hospitality (dogs as well). Well equipped and spacious
accommodation in beautiful countryside even if the weather was Irish. Next time we seek out local pub music we will

Beautiful home and surroundings! We had a wonderful time and highly recommend the greenwood inn. The all around Irish
experience! Thank you Alyce and Michael (and of course Shamus and Penny) for a lovely stay.
Charlene and Rodney....USA.....March '08
House is fantastic and had a great few days here. The location was central to everything we wanted to do. Thanks Alyce for your
advice on places to visit. Muckross house was a definite winner and the views going over the hills to Kenmorre are amazing.
Visiting Cork was a must. The Irish people have been so friendly to us. The wee pub at Ballyorgan has a great atmosphere as well
as a great pint of Guinness. Alyce you wanted us to let you know all the good eating places we found so here goes: Ryan's
Daughter at Cashel, Canty's Bar opposite main post office in Cork. Alyce your grandson is a wee cracker, and the dogs are so
friendly. Hope to see ye all again soon.
Kerry, Janet, Jayne and Tom...Scotland...March '08

night. Thanks for everything.
