Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Ireland has a very warm, welcoming culture - with a rich tradition of music, dance, poetry and literature
We live 15 minutes walk from Roundstone Village, one of the most picturesque villages in Ireland. Nestled between the sea and the 12 Bens mountain range - in summer it is a bustling hub of tourists with shops, restaurants, pubs and music galore. It is quieter in winter.
Clifden town is a 15 minute drive and serviced by a regular bus service.
There are two gorgeous beaches within easy walking distance, Plenty of walks, and hill walks in the vicinity. Swimming and water sports on the doorstep.
