Description
Welcome to our smallholding just outside Cork City, Ireland!
We live on a peaceful 1-acre smallholding about 20 minutes’ walk from the nearest village, where you can catch a bus straight into Cork City. The area offers lovely woodland walks and plenty of quiet countryside to enjoy.
We share our home with three dogs, and we also board and groom dogs here—so there will be lots of doggos passing through! You’ll need to be comfortable around animals and happy in a lively, dog-friendly environment.
Most of the help we need is with cleaning, laundry, general household tasks, and simple food prep. There’s also some outdoor work like keeping the grass under control and looking after flower pots.
I am Ballymaloe-trained chefs, so when we’re around you can expect great food! 😊
Every now and then, though, you’ll need to be independent—including cooking for yourself when we’re not available.
If you’d like to earn a small amount of extra money, there are opportunities to help with walking dogs.
If you enjoy nature, dogs, and a relaxed country lifestyle with easy access to a vibrant city, we’d be delighted to welcome you to our home.
