Description
Hi my name is Thomas,
I am a single dad to Jolie aged 12 and Torin aged 9 who spend approximately half the week with me, and two Rottweilers Buddy and Spike. We live in the beautiful north cork countryside at the foot of the ballyhoura mountains, we have a busy family oriented household and a large veggie garden. I am currently working from home getting a startup off the ground. The place as you will see is a little piece of heaven if you like big skies and wild walks. Anyone wishing to come and stay will have their own guesthouse with wifi and underfloor heating in a bright airy space, we also have a sauna and hot tub in the garden and miles of mountain bike trails on the mountain. I am currently a bit overworked and could really do with a hand about the place if this sounds like something that interests you please drop me a line and we can organize a call.
Regards,
Thomas.

Thomas, his family and friends are amazing human beings, they welcomed me as I was a member of the family and made me feel at home.
Tom's house is cozy and peculiar, my duties were easy and didn't feel like working at all...
I hope the cucumber pickle came out nice!
