Perfect experience here. Marie and Tom are so warm-hearted and kind that I really don’t want to leave. I had a big issue with my skin when I arrived, and Marie helped me heal it. We also had delicious Irish food all the time—I really loved the soda bread! She also took us to explore the surrounding areas and experience the local culture.

Once again, thank you for staying me for a long time. I really appreciate Marie and Tom. It was great experience and memories for me to come here. Both are proper kind and warm.

It's been an amazing experience. This was my first workaway experience and I couldn't choose a better host than Marie, Tom and their all family (that I met during my long stay, a month and half). There is not much work to do, basically cleaning the rooms when the guest do the check-out. They have an amazing house, amazing kitchen for who loves to

Marie and Tom are amazing hosts! Since the beginning I felt very welcomed and I could see that they really worry about me.
I stayed for 2 and a half months with them, in a house that is only for the volunteers, where there are three empty rooms, kitchen, bathroom and living room with everything you need, it is very cozy place and great if you need
… read more some privacy. Always when Marie went shopping she asked me if I wanted to join her or if I needed something ( she makes sure that the fridge will be always full), and I always could take anything I wanted to cook for myself.
The work was mainly help with the B&B, what it wasn't much even for one person, and I had plenty of free time to travel and walk around.
The house is in a amazing place with a beautiful nature, always when I went out for walking I thought how lucky I was to be there.
If I wanted to travel around, there is a bus stop 25min by walk from the house, but Marie always could drop me off and pick me up if I wanted.
Every Thursday I used meet up with Marie and her's friends to play bingo, what I really enjoyed ( I won twice and this made me very happy hahaha ). Marie also always used to invite me for some wine, dinner and nice chatting.
I'll never forget how generous they were with me and how they made me feel at home, they are people with a good heart.
I also need to thank Dany, Diane, Nana for always being so kind with me.
I hope see everyone again soon ❤️You can only contact Workawayers who have an active membership.

Sorry for the late feedback!
This was my first workaway experience and I highly recommend it.
The whole area is surrounded by beautiful views and you get lots of free time to explore.
The work was relatively easy, just house keeping, making breakfast, doing laundry and cleaning. Marie is thorough and explains everything to you so you always know

It does get very quiet at times so if you want to go abit further afield in Ireland during that time I recommend bringing a car.

I’ve spent 6 weeks at Marie’s house. The work is very easy (I must say tough that it was the end of the season). There are 3 apartments that helpers need to clean, then you must do the laundry. You work with another girl and you live together in a big house just for yourselves : that’s so nice ! At the end of my stay, I was alone because there
… read more were not a lot of guests and Marie really did take care of me :) I ate dinners with the family (good ones!), we played bingo (I won), she took me on trips to cities and she was always there to drive me or to pick me at the bus station !!
I cannot not speak about the surroundings of the house : it is so beautiful. I went on many walks on the cliffs, in the countryside with the bike, to the beach or to Clahane which is a nice place to take a bath in Liscannor. The towns around are also very very nice to visit and to go to the pub
To sum up, If you’re looking for a social and “going out” experiment maybe that wouldn’t suit you, but I enjoyed my stay a lot, very chill, and perfect if you like to be in nature ( however I wouldn’t have stayed more than 6 weeks, but it was autumn so probably chiller than spring or summer)
Sending the best wishes to Marie, Tom, Danny, Nana and Buddy !!You can only contact Workawayers who have an active membership.

I have spent seven wonderful weeks with this amazing family and the only thing that was hard to do was to say goodbye. I really felt like a family member. Apart from a small cleaning of the apartments, I had so much free time to discover all the beautiful places nearby; Galway, Ennis, Burren, Fanore, Doolin, Inis Oírr, Cliffs of Moher in all

My first workaway experience could not have been better! I have spent six weeks at Marie’s and Tom’s B&B, which is located very close to the Cliffs of Moher - a delightful part of Ireland!

When the work was done, I often went for a walk with their lovely little dog Buddy. Also Marie took me with her to all the surrounding towns many times. I visited Galway and Bunratty Castle and went to dancing classes and the Bingo with Marie - I loved it!
On top of this, Marie is a great cook! So apart from enjoying the dainty dishes, you can learn a lot from her on that front.
Thank you so much Marie and Tom (and all other family members - including the pets ;-) ) for your hospitality! It has been an unforgettable experience! I hope to see you again some day and wish you all the best!You can only contact Workawayers who have an active membership.

It was my first experience as a workawayer, it was great and was exactly what I was looking for.
Marie and Tom were amazing hosts, I spent four great weeks with them and their family at their b&b. The work was not hard (making breakfasts, cleaning up rooms after guests’ checkout, doing the laundry). Sometimes I helped Marie for more than 4/5
… read more hours a day, but on other days it would take less depending on the number of guests checking in/out. For this reason I didn’t have a fixed day off but I had enough time to go out and explore this wonderful part of Ireland which I had never seen before. I visited some places on my own but I also had the privilege of having Marie as a guide on some outings (I visited Bunratty Castle, Dromoland Castle and the Burren with her and I want to thank her very much for that once more). Marie and Tom were always very happy to give me advice on what to visit and where to go and I appreciated it very much. All in all it was a really positive experience and exchange and I learned a lot from Marie. Thank you so much for your kind hospitality.
