Those holes are called Ventricles, and together are part of the ventricular system. There are 4 ventricles altogether in the brain: 2 lateral ventricles (right and left) a third ventricle and a fourth ventricle (names are not very original, but thankfully easy to remember).

Are the spaces between the three meninges in man filled with cerebrospinal fluid?

Yes. Cerebrospinal fluid is a clear liquid produced within spaces in the brain called ventricles. It is a filtrate of blood. It is also found inside the subarachnoid space of the meninges which surrounds both the brain and the spinal chord. In addition, a space inside the spinal chord called the central canal also contains cerebrospinal fluid. It acts as a cushion for the neuraxis, also bringing nutrients to the brain and spinal cord and removing waste from the system.
