    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We live a beautiful area of the countryside in rural Cork but with the benefit of easy access to Cork City (ranks in the Lonely Planet's top 10 cities of the world!). We're a lively, busy and friendly family who love to have people coming and going. We're always very keen to welcome someone equally friendly and enthusiastic to our home.

  • Help

    Help

    We're are happy to host 2-3 independent individuals who would do some gardening, fencing and tending to our orchard. We also require house/pet sitters at certain times for our dogs and horse.

    Accommodation is available in a newly converted loft apartment, adjacent to the house. We are a busy family who would prefer independent minded people who will be happy to take on their own adventures and look after themselves!

    Accommodation

    We have a newly converted loft apartment adjacent to the house, which will allow you privacy and independence. Contains two bedrooms, kitchen living room and bathroom.

    For pet sitting, the accommodation would be in the family home to keep the dogs company.

    This is a rural location. We are 2km from the village and 6km from the nearest town. Bikes, of course, are available - you'd need to be fit! Occasionally, a car may be available for use.
