Hi!
We are Jen and Fin, Irish/Dutch siblings and good friends. We have returned to Ireland to restore our family home and to bring our once beautiful garden back to life.
We are situated in the remote yet touristic McGillycuddy Reeks mountain range and are right on the Kerry Way walking trail.
We are a beautiful 30 minutes drive from Killarney (one of Ireland’s top tourist attractions) and Kenmare (a vibrant little town known for its food and music scene). We travel into town often.
If you enjoy walking and hiking there are many lovely trails close by. Purple Mountain, Strikeen, the Old Kenmare Road, Bridia Valley and many more! We love to get out walking and often with friends.
We have 2 - 3 bedrooms available and can arrange singles, doubles or more beds. The house is big and so there is plenty of space. We can fit a number of workawayers.
We love food, we are vegetarians and sometimes eat fish. We like to cook vegetarian but we want you to feel free to cook what you will here.
Our Dad lives on site too and kindly helps us out when he can.
We are excited to meet some friendly faces and make it a bit of fun together.
Chat soon,
Jen and Fin

Marcus stayed with us for 2 months. He is a true British gentleman and I loved every second of his accent.
He has a heart made of sugar and a mind so lovely you could cry.
He worked his bum off and we laughed, I think, every 20 seconds.
I gained a few kg while Marcus was here because his food is just… read more

The work is exactly what I would expect during such a workaway.
We did up the main living house by repainting walls and furniture,… read more
There is probably no other place in Ireland that could beat the Black Valley landscapewise. And the people just were great. Jen is an awesome host who really wants to make you feel at home. She would always drive us to Killarney for going out, we had great dancing sessions in the beautiful… read more
