Where can i start. From the first moment I seen the bentley I fell in love with it. The car was fantastic. Then I met the brilliant, erudite, charming.bernard. What a cool man. I literally couldn't recommend any better. Great friendly service, and i felt immediately comfortable. Ill definitely use again and tell anyone I know to use courtyard classics . Delighted.
If you love cars, adventure or a new experience then a Courtyard Classic Cars road trip is for you. Frank loves cars, I like new adventures and dramatic landscapes so this was an ideal activity for us. I dressed up with hat and all and we enjoyed the journey in a Morgan, MGA and 350 SL Mercedes. Bernard, the owner could not have done more to make the day more perfect. We enjoyed a fresh scone at the Hollywood cafe, lunch at a delightful Gastro Pub. 150 km of sheer joy. We will be back. THANK YOU BERNARD. Frank and Vanessa, Blarney, Co Cork
My dad rented a 1988 Bentley Mulsanne for his 60th, just for the craic of driving around Dublin/Wicklow with myself and my brother. Wasn't with him for collection, but he had a great experience, shown the rest of the cars in their storage.
Car had been brilliantly kept, great drive and my dad spoke very highly of his experience with booking; easy to collect and return, with such trust and experience that he'll definitely be borrowing another.
While we rent classic cars all over Europe, we came back to Ireland since we had a very good souvenir with Courtyard classic cars. Bernard is providing cars in good condition that prevent unfortunate issues during our few days trips and his customer centricity makes a big difference. We highly recommend Courtyard classic cars to enjoy Ireland driving amazing cars full of history !
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!!
We were absolutely delighted with our experience with Courtyard Classic Cars, and we can’t thank Bernard enough for making everything so seamless and memorable.
For our wedding on September 2, 2023, we hired a beautiful British Racing Green MGB Roadster—and it was every bit the showstopper we hoped it would be. From the moment we first reached out, Bernard was an absolute pleasure to deal with. Friendly, professional, and incredibly helpful, he made the whole process of hiring a classic car not only easy but genuinely enjoyable.
The car was delivered all the way to Belfast on the morning of the wedding, spotless and gleaming, and added such a special touch to the day. Even more impressive: the car was collected that same evening without anyone even noticing—a true testament to the smooth and discreet service Bernard and his team provide.
The self-drive hire collection Bernard offers is incredible, and for anyone considering a classic car for their wedding or special event, we would wholeheartedly recommend Courtyard Classic Cars. The process was straightforward, the communication was great, and the MGB was an absolute dream to drive and to be photographed with. It really elevated the day and created some unforgettable moments.
Thank you, Bernard, for helping to make our wedding feel so uniquely “us.”
We rented the 1965 Mercedes Fintail for our wedding, a big highlight of the day and made for absolutely wonderful photos! Bernard was an absolute gem to deal with, highly recommend making the investment as it was a great addition. The car was immaculate and added such a touch of class to our wedding.
We were delighted to have used courtyard classic cars for our wedding day. The mercedes was in immaculate condition and had obviously been extremely well maintained during its almost 50 years. Bernard was a pleasure to deal with and a true gentleman - I would highly recommend courtyard classic cars.
We hired the Green MGB Roadster from Courtyard Classic Cars as our wedding car and it ended up being the star of show! Such a memorable experience driving it and Bernard was incredibly accommodating through the whole process - dropping it directly to my home on the wedding morning.
Can't recommend highly enough!
We hired ‘Kermit’ the MG Roadster from Bernard for our wedding day. My dad drove Kermit to the venue and it was so fun! The car looked amazing and so many of the guests got their photos taken with it. Bernard is a lovely guy and arranged drop off/collection of the car because we’re based in Northern Ireland. Highly recommended.
I recently hired the Mercedes SL 350 from courtyard classics, I have to say it's the best 3 days I've ever spent in a car, Bernard was friendly, flexible & professional his cars are top quality as is his service. This is a must for a car enthusiast imo the whole experience was great from start to finish.
