If flying to dublin then you can bus to limerick direct from airport.

Also please note we go to shows at weekends and so don't go on too many adventures outside of this we do go to the beach and sometimes to other places .
You will need to be independent to go sight seeing to other parts of the country .
We don't offer lifts after 10 pm at night or before 8 am in the morning if you want to go anywhere before 8 am or after 10 pm then you will have to get a taxi to the city as there are no buses outside of these times either .
Days off May not be weekends .
Winter is cold in ireland so if your generally a cold person then mobile home living is not for you .
I prefer people that can work on own initiative .
We also have dogs that are used for hunting and they live outside in separate kennels these are not house dogs and do not live inside so if you are a believer that dogs need to be inside on the sofa we would ask you not to apply here .
We are a family that hunt on horseback in winter and partake in other hunting sports so if you have views on this then sorry were not for you .
You will need Warm clothes
You will need outdoor boots
If replying please start our first conversation with I have read your profile .
If you are a first time workaway only apply if you can be independent and work on own initiative. If your parents have done every thing for you all your life then rethink applying as I don't baby sit adults over 18 .
Please google mobile home ,static caravan.
Google small holding /small farm
