My stay with Lorraine was really great. I spent 3 weeks with her and an other workawayer and the time just flew by ! She took care of me like a member of her own family. The job is pretty easy and once you know what you have to do, it can be fast, of course you still have to be rigorous. This is the perfect place for a first workaway experience.… read more

It was my first workaway experience and it was absolutely fantastic. I spent 3 weeks with Lorraine and she was really nice and caring. She took care of me and the other workaway just perfectly, like we were a member of her family. Plus she taught us everything about the job and how to do it. The tasks are not so difficult but you have to do them… read more

I spent two weeks with Lorraine and it was an absolutely lovely stay.
I wasn't too sure about being there at first (the distance from Doolin is considerable, but in no way a downside, the view is amazing), but when I got the hang of the job, got more comfortable and proactive and understood better her humor. Nothing could my happiness over there.… read more

I must say as a young traveller she was confident, independant and used her time and opportunity well at this house. Clara was respectful and interacted with my guests nicely. She also used free… read more

I spend 1 month working in the B&B of Lorraine and I had such a good time! Lorraine is a really kind and helpful person! The area around the B&B is amazing especially the Cliffs of Moher! There is not really a timetable of hours you have to work! It depends on you how long you're working and what you're doing with the rest of your day! Lorraine… read more

Lorraine was one of the most kind hearted people I've ever met. I came to Ireland not knowing that it was the end of the tourist season however didn't have any direction to where I was going to head after Doolin. Lorraine took me in and in exchange for a few hours (easy) work in the mornings I had food and accommodation. I even managed to do the… read more
