Irish Landmark is a non-profit organisation that finds interesting and unusual properties that are in need of conservation, and we give them new life. Since 1992, we've been turning historic buildings into truly special self-catering holiday accommodation. Our properties range from lighthouses and schoolhouses, to castles and gate lodges.
As an educational charity, our primary aim is to conserve and sustain iconic buildings. That's why Irish Landmark properties are living buildings, not museum settings. Irish Landmark always respects the history and architectural integrity of the structures we conserve, but we also ensure they have all the contemporary comforts you want in a holiday home.
I always want come back here as my father was a lighthouse keeper and was stationed here 1971-75. I wanted to bring my family here to show them where I had spent some time. I was extremely lucky to get the very same house that we lived in. I had a fantastic weekend staying here. It was everything I expected and more. The staff couldn’t be more helpful. And the house felt like a home. I will definitely be back.
We loved the cottage, it was very clean, comfortable and warm as we had some chilly evenings. The decor was soothing ,blues and greens, lots of books to dip into about lighthouses which were very interesting. We were very pleased with our first Irish Landmark property and hooe to come again sometime.
I had an absolutely wonderful stay at this lighthouse last weekend. The place was incredibly cozy and simply amazing, it truly felt like a home away from home. Everything we needed was provided, and it was clear that a lot of thought had gone into making the space comfortable and welcoming.
The surrounding area was beautiful, with stunning views that made the whole experience even more special. It’s the perfect spot to relax and enjoy peaceful, scenic surroundings.
The manager Pamela , was also fantastic, very easy to deal with, friendly, and genuinely helpful.

From the first picture on Internet I was impressed but after coming it was even more than I expected. Beautiful place to stay, not just accommodation it's the location and people. From Pamela who was always there for any questions to the locals who made us welcome and want to come back again and staying longer next time .
Thank you !
Everything about our stay at Black Head was fantastic… The house, facilities in it , location , scenery, peace and quiet, .. time out of the craziness of life , was all just perfect… The road that leads to it from the Golf Course needs very careful and slow navigation… Pam was so helpful and kind .
Highly recommend it
Our stay at the Kiln Wing, Old Corn Mill capped a remarkably enjoyable holiday.
The building has been sensitively and painstakingly restored in a way that combines modern amenities and facilities with the retention of wonderful period details, sustainable use of materials wherever possible and a priceless view to an adjacent mill with a working water wheel on the opposite side of the river. The sound of running water over the weir between the two also makes for an incredibly relaxing stay.
We enjoyed reading about the building's history and remarkable restoration while also taking full ...more
The property is exceptional, beautifully maintained and an absolute joy to experience. The location is second to none, with the beach and the forest on your doorstep.
Really enjoyed our stay, The house was immaculately clean and Louise was so friendly, helpful and welcoming. We had everything we needed for a 3-night break and loved the quieter location. Gardens were well-kept and information provided helped us plan our outings. I would absolutely love to return again. Fully recommend if you like somewhere slightly out of the way but still close to shops and tourist spots.
Loved the quiet rural location, cosy sitting room and the large well equipped kitchen. The lodge has all the modern features needed for a comfortable stay while keeping the period details of the lodge. Great communication and support from our host.
