  Description

  Mom of 3 adult children, who often travel or work away, which allows available accommodation.
  I will welcome you to our humble home. We have recently bought a very old stone farmhouse with outbuildings near a town, and near the seaside, in Cork. The house, 1771, was left abandoned and we are giving it a new lease of life. The house needs everything renewed plumbing, electrical stonework repairs, lime plasterwork , gardening and other repairs that is not as easy for me to do as well as maintain it alone.
