At TuriTop, we’re proud to support tour and activity operators. Every now and then, a story emerges that perfectly captures who we are: transformation, simplicity, and the joy of creating happy memories.
Today we’re highlighting one of those stories: the incredible evolution of Cuskinny Court, the creative force behind the beloved Cork North Pole Outpost Experience.
The Beginning of a Magical Idea
In June 2013, the founders of Cuskinny Court approached iTop with a question:
“How can we use our historic family home to create something meaningful… and generate income?”
The house, an elegant period property located in the heart of Cork, was brimming with charm and character. What it needed was a purpose.
That conversation gave life to an idea that would soon enchant thousands of families across Ireland: the Cork North Pole Outpost Experience.
Launched in December 2013, the event was an immediate success, capturing the imagination of children and parents alike. Behind the magic, the challenge was clear: how to manage high seasonal demand while delivering a seamless and magical experience for visitors?
