Eanna is an excellent host, he always looks after our comfort, if everything is good and he gives us freedom, privacy and trust, creating a very comfortable and healthy environment.
He is fun and patient, he has no problem teaching us new things.
He also works alongside you and that creates a good host-worker bond. And it's an excellent… read more

Oriol and Adria are two absolute gentlemen. They are hard working and very quick learners. Everything I have asked of them they did to the best of their ability. Their English is excellent and they did a fine job of helping me with my spanish. They ate everything I have prepared for them and they made some delicious meals themselves.

Susanna and Cecelia were excellent workawayers. They kept their space clean, cooked nice dinners and helped me with my Spanish. They tried their best at everything that was asked of them which was painting, cleaning, moving furniture, weeding, cooking and organising!

Left by host for Workawayer (Sabrina)

Sabrina was an ideal Workawayer, did all the jobs I asked her to do and then always found other things to do that I had not thought of. This was particularly helpful as in many cases I needed the push to get small jobs and jobs that I had been avoiding done. We cooked for each other several times and she was very easy to cook for and she cooked… read more

My experience at Eanna’s house was marvelous! He is a super host, very welcoming and easy going. I helped organizing the house and a bit in the allotment and had plenty of time to explore Cork and its surroundings. He kindly gave me tour the very first night I arrived and not only made great suggestions on where to go but also answered my thousand… read more

Sofi and Eric were great workawayers. They were extremely friendly and respectful, helped with everything they were asked to and were clean and tidy. Sofi was also great for helping me with my Spanish. They made the most of their time in Cork and I had another workawayer at the time, also from Argentina and they got on great with him as well.

what to be said other than the fact that we spend an excellent time into and within Eanna house.
our stay was made so that we feel completely at ease, part of the walls, the real inhabitants of the house.

Ombeline and Vincent were a really great couple to host. They were both great workers who looked for work and really got the idea of what I needed help with. They cooked some delicious dinners and were always polite, respectful and friendly. The only disappointment was that they were at the end of their trip, I would have loved to have hosted them… read more
