Details
Description
We are a family living in old farmhouse in South Donegal, the nearest village of Dunkineely, which is on the N56 between Killybegs and Donegal Town. We are close to beaches and lots of sights. We are looking for some help in the garden mainly :).
Types of help and learning opportunities
Gardening
DIY and building projects
General Maintenance
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We are both designers, an architect and a weaver we are interested in the local area and are happy to show you around. We live on the 'Wild Atlantic Way' close to lovely beaches and walks. There will be opportunity to explore Donegal Town (crafts/ cafes/ pubs - 15 min away), Killybegs (fishing port w/ lovely cafes - 5 min away) and Ardara (weaving and heritage town - 20 min away). I am a Conservation Architect working with some local buildings so would be happy to show you those, my partner is a Weaver of Traditional Donegal Tweed, and can show you his factory/workshop. I am also into horses and ride locally, this may also be an option if you are interested.
