    Description

    We are a traditional irish family who love getting to know people from all over the world and making friends. We have a wide variety of animals at our home. We have fresh milk every morning from the cows, have fresh eggs every day from the hens. We have had a great mix of helpers over the years and we are all still in contact regularly and we remain firm friends with some of them. They come for a stay for 2 months and end up staying for 6 😉 Presently,we are looking for one or two people aged 25 + (insured to drive our car) who are seeking a cultural exchange.👍 A minimum stay of one month is desirable.

    *Please note that we are not a business nor are we looking for business. Please get in touch if you would like to come and stay with a friendly, Irish family and experience the best of Irish culture in the countryside!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    The workawayer will be very much part of the family. There are lots of different activities on here so it is a wonderful way of learning new skills.There are a lot of people coming and going to our house. No 2 days are the same. You can also practice your english and enjoy the green island. We are near a village where you can find a friendly pub, a community centre, church, etc. Newcastle West is 6 km, where you can get a bus to Limerick, Galway, Clare, Dublin, etc.
