Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

There were 23 of us attending a multi course cooking adventure focusing on Irish traditional fare: a fish starter, followed by a flavorful beef stew and apple cake. Our group members learned great cooking tips from Mark Murphy: a very knowledgeable and passionate chef. What a great way to spend a rainy afternoon in Dingle! We will be back next year. Thank you Mark, MuireAnn and Caroline for your guidance, expertise and kindness.

We did the Yeast and Bread Masterclass this week and we had a great time. Having done some cookery courses before, we were very impressed with the standard of the course and it was excellent value for money. Mark is extremely knowledgeable and could answer any question we had! Neither of us could bake bread before we took the class, we came out of the class with a bag of different breads we had baked ourselves! Muireann and Mark didn't stop all day and were very hospitable. We even got a tour of the nearby bakery. Thanks guys! Eva and Mike

attended a class with Mark Murphy on making scones, it was like being in a friends kitchen. In our group of 16 the general consensus was a 5 star experience! and the scones were to die for! light crispy and flavorful. we were also showed how to make an easy and quick raspberry jam. I wish we were able to do more classes,I hope to return and this will definitely be on my list of places to return to.

Wow doesn't begin to discover how much fun we had on our day of traditional Irish Cooking. The class was awesome and because it is hands on, you remember it when you get home.
I still make the soda bread and salad that we were taught. I can't wait to go back for the Catch and Cook class.

The drive to Dingle, from any direction, is sublime, particularly if you go over the Conor Pass.
Having enjoyed the beautiful scenery we arrived at the Dingle Cookery School, clearly signposted and with easy parking, as it's just outside the often busy town centre.
We were warmly welcomed by Muireann and Mark, and tea, coffee and delicious scones and jam.
The premises look professional with high quality equipment and plenty of space for the 15 or so of us. Mark started with a fascinating talk about the history of Irish food, giving many insights into what has shaped modern day Ireland, mentioning both the good and the bad, and the effect this has had on the country's demographic. Mark admitted he could have talked about this all day, and that would have been a pleasure, but we had to crack on with the cooking.
Mark is a natural teacher and explains everything clearly and simply, not being flashy and trying to look smart, allowing plenty of time for questions and of course practice. Just the right amount of information, no overload, and we were given several printed pages of easy to follow recipes.
We all had a chance to prepare several dishes, which were served up for our lunch.
Truly a most enjoyable day.

We went for a day of traditional Irish cooking. The only way it could have been better is if we'd been there for a Catch of the Day school to be able to take advantage of whatever came into Dingle Harbor. The site is perfect, comfortable, roomy, well-equipped. The lessons were thorough and delicious, and included a lovely, concise history of Irish cuisine. I hope to get back for that Catch of the Day version.

Highly recommend this as an experience. We had friends visit us and it was a perfect activity to do as it entailed food, activity and a life time skill. We got to go fishing out on the ocean with a kind and experienced fisherman Packie. We were also lucky to see Fungi on the way back and then got to eat a 3 course meal that Muireann and Mark showed us how to cook our catch expertly. We will definitely be back for another course. Thank you for the memories!

We have been on the Irish Cooking course which started with a very good abbreviated food history given to us by Mark, the "chef" of the house over tea and scones. Then it was time for us to learn how to bake brown soda bread and apple-cake, followed by the highlight of cooking under the chef's baton: meat pies and hake with fresh vegatables. We learned about chopping and cooking techniques, about seasoning and presenting food. The place is spacious and well equipped, Muireann and Mark are wonderfull hosts. Enjoying the meal You cooked with the others in the group for lunch was a wonderfull finale to a great day!

When I informed my other half that we were spending the day at a cookery school while on honeymoon, he really thought I'd lost the plot & was trying to fully domesticate him in ways in never signed up to in the "I do" part of our ceremony. However, when I informed him that we were going fishing, then cleaning the fish, cooking & finally eating it; there was a totally different, far more overjoyed reaction from him. The day was amazing, our skipper Michael was fab, we met lovely people, Muireann was a true hostess & Marc a most engaging and talented chef. Not only did we learn about filleting and cooking our fish, we were treated to a starter & desert as well as our self cooked main course. ★★★★★ If I could rate this experience 100 stars - do it; so different, so fun, so enthralling.

I will be staying in Dingle in May2018 and am interested in the Thursday Irish Cooking class. I'm a published author and doing research for a romance novel in an Irish Cooking School. Do I need to sign up this far in advance for a class? There may be another author interested in taking the class, also.
