    Description

    My name is Michelle. My fiancé and I would like to open our home to someone willing to help out with gardening, painting, house work, DIY projects, and caring for our three dogs.
    I love to cook and bake, and my fiancé has a keen interest in computers and gaming.
    We live in West Cork, 40 minutes from the City Centre, easily accessible by bus.
    Our town is full of traditional Irish culture with pubs, cafés and a weekly farmers market.

    We live in a 3 bed home with 2 full bathrooms and one WC in a quiet housing estate.
    You would have your own room with a double bed with under bed storage, a night stand and a chest of drawers for clothing.
    The main bathroom has a bath/shower combo.
    We have a garden that gets good sun in the summer evenings, a great place to unwind with a glass of wine!

    What else ...

    In your free time you can visit the local town, catch the bus into Cork City for some shopping, visit the seaside town of Kinsale which is also accessible by a very cheap local bus. Kinsale is on the water with lovely restaurants, pubs, shops and has a great equestrian centre which I myself attend if that’s an interest of yours!
