Accommodation & Food

We use custom built language colleges that have been designed from the ground up to suit students. We use two different locations in Kanturk and Liscarroll that both can cater up to 100 students at any given time. Private comfortable rooms will be provided. There are designated areas for male and female students with teachers rooms situated at the entry points to these wings. The students will have their own hang out areas for down time in the evening and we will work with both centres to provide an authentic rural irish experience. This includes evening ceili and traditional irish instrument classes. The menus are designed to be filling and wholsome and are all home made. We can cater for all dietary requirements once notified in advance (we will be asking for this two weeks prior to arrival.) 

Teachers & Supervision

There is a member of Ballyhass staff with your students at all times while on activities. At the accommodation we will have a designated house master assigned to you and your group. You are free to take part in the program as much or as little as you would like. During the activity days you have a full teachers lounge at your disposal with stove, wifi and comfortable chill out areas. The students will be using the main area as a hub to come back to after each activity phase so you will always be in touch with your group.
