REVIEWS 

A once-in-a-lifetime experience! If you want to explore Ireland in a Classic Car (we had a wonderful Morgan 4+4) I can highly recommend this company !My son and I drove 1000 miles on the Wild Altlantic Way in this fantastic car and loved every minute. Rainer W. Fuchs - May 2025.

Bernard is a great professional and his cars are in top condition as we have witnessed time and time again ! Great memories in 2025 again, thank you. Guillaume Touza - October 2025.

Thank you Bernard for this very nice trip and the quality of your welcome and your vehicles ! Hope to see you soon ! Arnaud Guilloteau - October 2025

I contacted Bernard to hire a couple of cars for our wedding in April ‘25. From the start Bernard was incredible, we got two Mercedes. One for the wedding (Finnie) and then another one SL350 for our mini honeymoon. I would have no hesitation recommending Bernard. We were invited onto a Classic Car Tour in September ‘25 and it was such an amazing experience and I would recommend anyone to book one for 2026!!
Matt Boland - April & September 2025

We used courtyard classic cars to hire a Morgan for our big day. From first contacting Bernard, he couldn't have been any more professional and accommodating. Hiring the car really added something different to our big day and was a big hit with our guests. Really would recommend. Shane Mannering:-May 2025

Amazing from our first phone call, very easy to deal with and easy to talk to. Dropped the car down the day before my wedding and talked me through everything. Amazing! Lee Cairns:- May 2025

Bernard was a pleasure to deal with, very easy booking process and everything on the wedding day itself was super easy, dropped the car to the door and made sure everything went smoothly. We got the Green Morgan 4/4 and it couldn't have been better, can't thank courtyard classic cars enough! Mike O’Riordan - May 2025.

The car we rented was absolutely stunning, immaculately clean and running perfectly throughout the day. It added something really special to the occasion. The customer service was also fantastic from start to finish, everything was handled professionally and with great care. I’d highly recommend renting from Bernard for anyone looking for a reliable, stylish, and memorable experience. You won’t be disappointed. Ademola - May 2025.

We booked a red mg roadster with Bernard and we weren't disappointed. It was such a cool part of our day and something to always look back on. Was great to have something different as well and not something traditional. Bernard was so easy to deal with and so friendly we knew we were in good hands. Thanks so much 😊 Martina & Tommy November 2024.

Overall super supplier. Everything was super easy. Bernard was really responsive on emails and everything was well organised. Went for the green MGB roadster which looked fab on the wedding pics. Jonathan - August 2024.

I wanted to hire a red sports car for my brother to drive my Mum and I to my wedding. We lost my Dad this year very quickly after he received his cancer diagnosis. He was a big liverpool supporter so the car had to be red. Booking the car with Bernard was seemless and effortless. My brother arrived the morning of the wedding to collect it and parked it outside our house to surprise my Mum. The neighbours all came out to see is off the estate. We had great fun in it driving to our wedding venue with plenty of horns beeping us en route. The experience was worth the spend as we will never forget it. Thanks again!

Lauren O’Donovan August 2024.

Introduction: 1st contact very welcoming and informative.Meeting: I was booking a car for my nieces wedding, Bernard made it all about Grace and her and Jamie’s big day. When the day arrived, Bernard delivered. There were no hitches, no surprises, the process was transparent and flawless. The way it should be. Well done Classic Team. Shay Marron- August 2024

We rented a green, vintage MG and it was a beautiful addition to our wedding weekend. Had a lot of fun driving it. CCC came and picked it up for us after, which took a lot of the stress off of us. They were super communicative and we felt like they would be there if we ever needed them in a pinch. Eoghan O’Keefe - August 2024.

Best Wishes. Ciarán and Racheal (Cavan) - January 2020.

Just wanted to say thanks for everything...The Morgan is perfect... I had a wonderful few days... can’t wait to do it all again!... Best wishes to you and all the classics for 2020!       Denis (Wicklow) - December 2019.

We had a great time. The cars were excellent and the route wonderful. We went to Russborough House but not all the way to Rathwood (was a bit further than expected, we took it easy). We did have lunch in Mickey Finns, which was also very good.    Best and Many Thanks again!
Dierik (Amsterdam, Netherlands) -September 2019

Myself and my now wife booked the red MGB for our wedding day from Bernard at Courtyard Classic Cars and what a brilliant experience it was! Start to finish Bernard was incredibly helpful and did everything he could to make it a wonderful experience and an added special touch to our already special day. I would highly recommend Courtyard Classic Cars to anybody looking for a great experience behind the wheel of a classic car with the burble of an old engine, the wind in your hair and an unforgettable driving experience, Be it on your wedding day or just for a weekend driving around Ireland's beautiful countryside.  
I will 100% be back again to try out more of these amazing cars!

Thanks again,
Simon & Louise (London) - March 2019

—We love driving with you guys and will always come back.  Theresa & Paolo (Bergamo, Italy) - August 2018

— I throughly enjoyed my unforgettable experience driving your Mercedes SL350. It was in immaculate condition and the drive was so much more than I had expected. I found it very hard to hand back the key.
Bernard couldn't have been more helpful and I will most definitely book another car with Courtyard Classic Cars again. Only problem will be which car to pick next time.                  Katriona (Co. Wexford) - August 2018

— Fantastic company to deal with. Bernard was very helpful every step of the way. We rented a red MGB for a long weekend driving across Ireland and the car ran like a dream! Bernard very helpfully delivered and picked up the car from our Dublin Airport hotel. I could not have asked for better service.   Julian (East Sussex, UK)  - August 2018

— I rented Courtyard's Green MGB "Kermit" for three days as a surprise to my girlfriend. And man did she love it! The whole trip we felt as royals travelling through Ireland - in style! This was one of the best short trips ever done, in terms of experience easily equalling our trips to Iceland and Shri Lanka. Bernard was also the best host one can hope for, all went extremely smooth and he even allowed us to rent "Kermit" for another day. Courtyard Classics are definitely your pick if you are looking for adventure and want to go beyond the existing travel paths.     Rob (Netherlands) - July 2018

— Topping off an extended weekend in Dublin, my wife and I hired the Green MGB Roadster for a day trip into the Wicklow mountain area. Wicklow is close to Courtyard Classic Cars and was well suited for a day out in the countryside. Bernard at Courtyard Classic Cars gave us excellent route suggestions and guidance, which contributed to a super experience.
The Green MGB was an exciting, sporty car to drive, and in very good condition and good-looking. Bernard was very flexible with respect to timing, pickup and delivery of car, and provided excellent service all through the process.
Jan and Pia (Oslo, Norway) - July 2018

— Well I can certainly recommend the MGB Roadster "Kermit". It was fun to drive and brought back wonderful memories for us. I have attached 2 photos and a small movie clip which I hope maybe of benefit to your company. Looking forward to a repeat performance in the not too distant future. Many thanks for all your help.   Fiona & Brian (Dublin) - June 2018

— We used Courtyard Classics for our recent wedding in June. Bernard was just fantastic in helping us pick the car and arrange the logistics for the day. He gave me (the Bride!) a great tutorial and made sure I was completely comfortable in the car on the morning of the wedding as I was driving myself to Church. The car was absolutely beautiful, great to drive and looks absolutely stunning in all our photos. It was a real talking piece of the wedding. Thanks again!  Sophie & Liam (Manchester, UK) - June 2018

— We hired the red MGB roadster as a surprise for my sister’s wedding last week. Bernard was extremely helpful in arranging everything with us and dropped the car to the groom on the morning of the wedding, then picked it up that evening from the reception venue.
When my sister walked out of the church and realised she’d be whizzing to her wedding reception in such a cool car, with her new husband in the driving seat, she was delighted! They made a stylish entrance at the reception venue, and got a huge cheer from all the wedding guests. It definitely added to the fun of their big day and I know they’ll never forget it.
Thanks Bernard and everyone at Courtyard Classics for all your help.
Karen (Dublin) - June 2018

— We spent two marvellous days driving your Green MGB Roadster.
The car is in very good condition, it is a pleasure to drive it.
You were very kind to pick up the car after the two days even from where we were staying.. The service was very easy, kind and simple ! Really, we will come back to you as soon as we come back to Ireland! Thanks a lot. All the best for now,   Raphaëlle et Friedrich from Montpellier (France) - June 2018

— One of the highlights of my wedding day was being driven from the church to the venue in the red MGB Roadster. It was such an incredible experience being waved off by all our friends and family and having 15 minutes time out to ourselves. My now husband is hugely into cars and had a great time driving his parents and groomsmen around before the wedding. Booking the car was so easy. Courtyard really bent over backwards to accommodate a viewing of the car and all our emails were responded to so quickly. When we collected the car, it was presents so immaculately. Finally, Courtyard Classics made the collection so easy. We merely left the keys with reception and they came and collected it once our reception was underway so we had no hassle arranging the return. My one negative comment - we had to give the car back!!!        Linda and Nason (Dublin) - May 2018
— I booked their 1972 Rover P5B to drive myself, my bestman, groomsman and ring bearer to our wedding. Absolutely lovely car to drive and was a great picture opportunity for guests. When I met Bernard he walked me through the car, making sure I was confident to head off, while understanding I had plenty to do that morning. Thanks a mill, looking forward to the next occasion to show up in style again.   Niall (Co. Wicklow) - May 2018
