We have a unique wedding venue located in the heart of the country. The house is a 17th century country house and there is 76 acres of woodland and a private lake with lots of interesting wild life. We have lots of local people employed who have a real interest and passion for this house and the area. During the high season we host a lot of weddings so positive attitude and willingness to work and learn is highly appreciated.

We will pay at least the minimum hourly wage for every hour worked and provide free accommodation. If you are a non-EU national you will need to present the correct visa or permit to work in Ireland.

Travelers can benefit by seeing how a wedding venue runs and by meeting people from all over the world. We also have a really good team of staff from the local community who are very friendly and who can give you a good insight into life in Ireland. All our staff and Workawayers are very friendly and helpful. Nenagh is a vibrant town with lots of local shops and good transport. We have a boat on the lake facing the house that makes for a lovely adventure on Lough Ourna.
This host offers accommodation and payment.
Host has indicated that they will pay at least the minimum hourly wage of their country for each hour worked and that accommodation will also be provided. They are asking for help with a business or business activity. Contact the host directly via the site messenger for more information and details about the wage provided. Any arrangements should be agreed in advance with your host.
Help is mostly needed in and around the house. This is an old country house, so general maintenance of guest rooms, painting, DIY projects and basic carpentry are potential work places for our helpers. We are also looking for a kitchen porter to assist our chefs. A good work ethic and enthusiasm are important as well as working in the team.
