Description
"We are a small rural homestead nestled along the banks of the River Boyne in the UNESCO World Heritage Park near the historic Newgrange site.
Our homestead includes pet cats and dogs, vibrant vegetable gardens, beehives, a flourishing orchard, a mix of chickens, ducks and geese that all add life to the land.
We're passionate about sustainability and often engage in a variety of interesting projects, from eco-friendly builds to creative upcycling.
If you love nature, gardening, animals, or hands-on projects, our homestead offers a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in rural life. You'll have the chance to learn about organic gardening, help care for our animals and work with bees. You can learn to cook, bake, make jams and preserve food.
Join us to experience the peaceful charm of living by the river in Co Meath, while contributing to our sustainable way of life!".Types d'aide et opportunités d'apprendre

Living and sharing with the Family, we are multilingual. Our house is situated by the River Boyne in the heart of the UNESCO World Heritage Park and a short walk from Newgrange Visitor Centre, one of Ireland's 'must see' tourist sights.
We love to grow and eat yummy food. We'd be delighted to share all our knowledge on organic gardening, harvesting, cooking and baking. We make jams, pickles and harvest honey from our bees.
If you are interested to learn about our traditional building methods like whitewashing and willow builds using ecological and salvaged materials we'd be delighted to share this knowledge with you too.
In your free time, the local villages of Donore and Slane offer pubs with traditional music evenings and great food, sight seeing, historical walks, a museum, Slane Castle famous for its rock concerts etc. etc...
