Description
We have a rural cottage and 2 acres of land a few miles from the villages of Feakle and Tulla in Co Clare.
There are ongoing land projects involving clearing and managing the hedges etc as well as other ongoing builds and renovations. - many tasks always changing -
The van shown here will be accommodation for my helpers. It has a comfortable bed , a wood burner stove and a gas cooker and is connected to electricity. In a separate cabin there is hot water sink and shower facility.
This opportunity would suit a couple or one person - aged 25 or over - that is happy to help without supervision and can manage basic tools..
It is a quiet area and ones that seek peace and solitude will enjoy it most. Helpers will be helping alone some of the time it is important that they are happy in their own company.
Helpers would have their meals / or food .. will be provided in return for 25 hours help a week, or alternatively less hours can be done and helpers can look after their own food supply. This arrangement can be flexible and negotiated. This placement most suits a couple with their own transport . There are always eggs and veg available from here to help out.
There are numerous lakes and walks in the area as well as local music in the nearby village.
Galway and Limerick are an hour away although not that easy to reach without own transport , but there is the possibility i can drop helpers to bus stops and towns for exploring.
If you are interested in staying here and helping out for a bit contact me through workaway and i will get back to you as soon as possible.
many thanks and look forward to meeting you
