  Description

  I am a Stained Glass Artist and teacher living on an acre smallholding in rural West Waterford. Over the winter months I train a wide variety of students in stained glass craft.
  
  During the summer I work on art projects and commissions and I grow a wide variety of fruit and vegetables. I have a large greyhound and a malinois x collie cross that are both rescue dogs.
  
  My cottage is within walking distance of 3 beaches from a small cove to 2 kms of sand and is near to the seaside resort of Youghal which is just over the border in County Cork.

  Aide

  I am mostly looking for help with garden maintainence and projects, including light clearance work, fencing projects and working in the organic vegetable garden. I am also hoping to repair the chicken enclosure and I have a 50ft polytunnel that needs attention. Now I am in my sixties the garden is a bit too much for me to maintain especially in high season.

  Beaches are in walking distance. There is local public transport to Youghal. There is lots to explore in this area. I would be happy to include helpers in excursions if appropriate and to facilitate access to public transport on their days off. This is a quiet rural area and helpers would need to respect this aspect especially as I work from home.
