    Description

    Hi, I live in a small Irish town, which is also home to Ireland 's first Eco Village in Co. Tipperary. I moved here 3 yrs ago and have been busy working as an artist in schools and community projects. The town is a very active social place to live in , public transportation to various towns and cities, lots of natural amenities close by. Ideal for those who would like to explore Ireland and have a base to travel from. Would suit an enthusiastically skilled and adventurous person. Single bedroom, shared cooking, and daily meals provided. Some light gardening and indoor painting would be a feature of the stay.

    I moved to Cloughjordan in 2023. Bought an old 1820's premises. I am almost finished renovations and hope to move in soon. I am currently renting half a house close to the one I'm renovating. I have two bedrooms , one of which is for guests and workaways. I like to cook, mostly plant based but eat meat occasionally. Happy to pick up new recipes and share the cooking of meals together, will provide ingredients for all meals. No indoor smoking, small garden available rear of house. Need your own WiFi Internet access. I use my phone's hot spot for laptop. If you like gardening and light indoor painting you will enjoy this part of Ireland.
