GardeningDIY and building projectsHelp around the houseGeneral MaintenanceCultural exchange and learning opportunities
We are an Irish- Finnish “ mature” couple interested in Irish traditional music and dancing and outdoor activities. We can share our interests and activities.
Help
We would welcome help with finishing building our timber framed/ stone house, restoring a small flat in our workshop and working in the poly tunnel and garden. Sometimes the help can be physically heavy. An open mind would be great!
Sometimes we need help with doing longer days, but instead the helper will have long weekends maybe for getting to know other parts of the country.Languages spoken

We live ca 7 km from the closest town Bantry next to the open sea. Our home is in a beautiful valley surrounded by mountains. We have had many woofers/ workawayers/ helpers and have great experiences from that.

We did a lot of activities together and they showed some things to do around Bantry.
The work was not too hard.
In the Noel's and Nina's house we felt like in a family and their cats were gorgeous.
Obviously, we recommend Nina and Noel!!
