  Description

  Hello! We are a family of four, two boys, Jack aged 6 and Rían aged 3. Dad (Colin) works as a manger is a local medical device company and Mum (Tara) works at her home Psychology practice. We live in beautiful East Cork in the countryside 2km form the small village of Killeagh. We love animals and we have lots! We rehome equines and have two ex-racehorses and two ponies that we have given a second life to. We also have a third horse that Tara competes with in dressage. We have three lovely and energetic dogs and a cat who all love company. We live in a rural area, the village of Killeagh is a 15 min walk away and there is a regular bus connection to Cork City (45 minutes via Midleton) and Waterford City (1hour 30 minutes via Youghal). There is also a greenway bike route in Killeagh that takes you into Midleton (west) and Youghal (east) which we love to use.
  As well as being outdoors with our boys and animals, we love music, the boys love playing with their toys and are learning to swim, play rugby and hurling. We also love food, growing vegetables in our garden and cooking and baking as much as possible.
  
  This is an opportunity for someone who is happy in a rural location and likes children and animals. Midleton is a lovely market town 15 minutes by bus and Youghal is a lovely sea side town also 15 minutes by bus from Killeagh.
  
  No smokers, no drug users.
