  Description

  Hi, we live in the West of Ireland in a large farmhouse, my brother and his family live on the farm in a separate house.
  
  Our home is along the wild Atlantic way with beaches within 10 minutes, the Burren and Connemara national Park all within driving distance. We are close to very good bus route and also have a train station 2 miles from our home.
  
  We would like to invite 1 or 2 workers to come stay with us experience living in our family home in exchange for some help around the house, general maintenance and some outdoor gardening and repairs.
  
  We have a long history of having people come stay with us, some up to a year at a time. We have had people from all over the world and have always enjoyed sharing our home with visitors.
  We can offer private en suite bedroom to any worker that would come to our home along with access to washing machine, kitchen, home cooked food.
  Please message and tell me about yourself and why you'd like to come stay with us.
