Descripción
We are a family of 3 adults, 1 teen, 2 energetic dogs and a cute cat!
We live in a vibrant town with stunning local amenities, river walks, natural wooded walks, golf course and scenery.
I am a school teacher in a local school and my husband is a retired director.
Our house is almost 2 hundred years old, mostly built of stone with an additional stone cottage.
We have fun additions to our garden with a hot tub and sauna.Tipos de ayuda y oportunidades de aprendizaje

We would welcome our guest on our excursions be it a city break or a beach trip.
Ireland is a diverse country and our county Kilkenny is steeped in heritage, a must on any travellers itinerary.
Kilkenny is situation in the south east of the country. The city, 12km from our town Castlecomer, has its own tourist attractions, the Discovery Park, an 18 hole golf club, a fine hotel, cafes and a bank.
Kilkenny is a medieval city with numerous attractions and a Castle on the river.
Just over an hour from Dublin and easily accessible by bus or train.Proyectos con niños

Our family is dynamic and diverse in our activities. We love the outdoors, renovating our house, maintaining our garden but it’s a lot of work to keep it nice.
My husband is often away and one of my sons is at Uni, so normal home chores build up. Little skills are needed but a lot of common sense is useful.
A little help would go a long way in keeping the house guest ready!Idiomas hablados

Alojamiento
The cottage located adjacent to the house and within the perimeter is available for the guest with WiFi included.
Meals are shared.
No smoking please.
The house is large and old but comfortable. I will advise on suitable clothing and footwear depending on the time of year.
The cat is in the house (downstairs) but spends most time sleeping, so please be aware of any allergies you may have.
The dogs are mostly outside but occasionally come into the kitchen for a ‘social’ visit but mostly in their cages!Algo más...
Daily chores may vary but are not time restrictive. Some days there will be minimal help while other days will be full time.
We are easy going people with normal life busyness.
We are used to guests in our home.
Castlecomer, our town, has a link to the main bus route but with a little careful planning and some help from me we can make sure you get that connection for you to explore further afield.
The Discovery Park is local and within a short walking distance.
We have a golf club that gives lovely views.
We have 2 cafes, 2 beauticians, 1 nail bar, a charity shop, several Irish bars, a hotel, a library, a walking track, a bank, supermarket, hairdressers, newsagents, post office, hardware, 3 pharmacies and a vegetable shop. No bakery but a selection of freshly baked and cooked products are available at the supermarket.
Plenty to do and explore.
My youngest son is learning French so some time may be allocated to speaking French with him.Un poco más de información
