    Beschreibung

    Would you like to stay near the historic and beautiful sites of New Grange and the Hill of Tara, in County Meath, along with its rich and ancient history, there are beautiful gardens, walking trails, traditional music. I am looking for someone for two weeks minimum to a month approximately, thought this is flexible. You are offered your own room, broadband, and the usual household facilities, but no TV. This is a non-smoking household.
    The house is 3 miles, 4 kilometres from the nearest bus in a quiet rural area, I go to the bus stop a couple of times a week, and there are bicycles available. I can help with English language if that is required as I have a TfL English teaching qualification. I will collect and deliver to Dublin Airport where necessary.
    There is mostly outside maintenance and garden help needed now, cutting hedges, and strimming scrub areas, so experience with garden machinery is important and someone with knowledge of machinery maintenance and repairs would be great. Mowing the grass, clearing gutters, washing windows, etc. In short, the heavier side of garden and housework. The garden is not that big but nature moves quickly in Ireland. There are the usual household cleaning/ maintenance things that are required when sharing accommodation.
    As you can see there are several different opportunities to help, if some of these areas interest you and you have some experience with them, this is especially necessary with the gardening and machinery, that would be great.
    There is plenty to do and see in the area, from a nature/historical point of view as we are in the Boyne Valley and part of Ireland’s Ancient East, quite close to Newgrange World heritage centre among other interesting places. However, it is very quiet and not for someone looking for an exciting or romantic night life, however there are traditional music sessions, for those interested in Irish music. We are a 40 minutes’ drive to Dublin city centre, which can be accessed by bus, this city has something of interest for everyone. Check my calendar for availability.

    There is general maintenance around the property which includes, clearing gutters/leaves and chopping wood at this time of year. Areas for wet days, cleaning/clearing out clutter inside. As well as the usual cleaning and assisting with some small building or repair jobs from time to time. A willingness to help flexibly is very important, take initiative in suggesting things needing attention and offer help where it is needed.
