The Old Schoolhouse – Exclusive Sea View Accommodation on Valentia Island
Welcome to The Old Schoolhouse – a unique place to stay on Valentia Island that perfectly blends history, style, and sustainability. Originally a historic building, it was carefully and beautifully renovated in 2023/2024 to meet the highest standards. Today, it combines traditional charm with modern luxury – just a few minutes' walk from the picturesque harbour town of Knightstown.

From the moment you wake up, you'll be greeted by spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean. Large windows throughout the house offer breathtaking panoramas – and on clear days, you might even spot a cruise ship passing by just offshore.

Living & Relaxing with a View
The accommodation features two spacious and stylish bedrooms:

One with a super king-size bed

One with a king-size bed

Each bedroom includes a private en-suite bathroom with walk-in rain showers, elegant glass partitions, and high-quality fittings. Both rooms are also equipped with flat-screen TVs and mirrored wardrobes.

In the main living room, guests can enjoy a large television with surround lighting, creating a unique viewing experience. For cosy evenings, there’s a built-in gas fireplace. The versatile lighting system throughout the home allows you to set just the right mood – whether warm and relaxing or bright and contemporary.

A second TV room provides an additional retreat, while two inviting seating areas with modern, generously sized armchairs offer wonderful ocean views. Whether you’re travelling solo, as a couple or in a small group – everyone will find their favourite spot here. This is a place to truly relax and enjoy life.

Cooking, Dining & Gathering
The open designer kitchen combines modern charm with premium appliances and a large American-style fridge. A true highlight is the use of Valentia slate – a local grey natural stone – for the kitchen countertops and bathroom vanities. This thoughtful use of regional materials adds character and elegance to the home.

The large dining table is perfect for shared meals, but also ideal for small meetings or workshops – a versatile space for both leisure and productivity.

Technology & Sustainability
The house is fully equipped for a comfortable stay:

Free Wi-Fi

Washer and dryer available to guests

EV charging station for electric vehicles

The property is also a model of sustainability: it is heated entirely by solar power and a heat pump, supported by a modern energy storage system. On sunny days, we achieve zero energy consumption from external sources. The Old Schoolhouse is fully self-sufficient and environmentally friendly.
