Description
Hello, we are a small family run campsite on the West Coast of Ireland. We live on the coast and have direct access to the beach. We are looking for a couple perhaps with children or two friends to work with us for a minimum of 4 weeks during May and June and for 6 weeks for the month of July to the end of August.
You will have your own private accommodation which is located less than a minute walk from our house. The accommodation is a very comfortable mobile home which has its own living space, kitchen, bathroom and 2 bedrooms. This accommodation is provided free of charge and there are no additional bills to pay.
The area is a huge tourist destination and provides many opportunities to explore outdoor life. Swimming, kayaking, hill walking, fishing, hiking are some of the activities to do in the area.
The National Park and Kylemore Abby are 2 very popular attractions nearby.
There is a bus link to the local town of Clifden and Galway city in the local village and we can provide transport to the bus.
This work away would ideally suit a couple or two friends as you would have each other for company. If you are keen to explore the outdoors and nature then this is an ideal opportunity.
We look forward to welcoming you. We would require a strong level of conversational English. We have 3 teenage children and we all work together.
