    Description

    We are a small hobby farm with a selection of different animals. We have several rescue animals and some that are quite old now but they are happy living their lives and we want them to have the best. We live in the West of Ireland and it is quite rural but there is a good bus services to Galway, Sligo, Westport and Dublin.

    It is nice and peaceful and we get lovely sunrises and sunsets.

    There is just the Denise and Vincent here but Denise is in a wheelchair and sometimes needs someone to be her legs (No care is needed at all).
