Help at a gorgeous 1870 family home in Wexford, Ireland

  Description

  Gardening and DIY help at a 1870s registered manor home, on 7 acres, in County Wexford, Ireland. Our property is particularly special, but in need of further development, particularly in the garden and in various maintenance/DIY projects (from painting to upkeep to small construction). I am an American living in Wexford, and not particularly handy. The house's 7 acres include a lovely semi-formal garden, with greenhouse, formal gardens, and open pasture land, as well as 3 horse stables (not currently occupied). I'm looking to improve the gardens, build out the greenhouse, and maybe repurpose the stables to something more usable.
  
  I am open to suggestions, but I'd love to have someone help do the above, depending on skill level. Food would be provided on site, where we have a fully renovated kitchen with all the necessary items one would need. Some meals would be provided, but plentiful food would be available to prepare otherwise.
  
  We rarely, but occasionally rent the entire house to guests. No assistance will be provided to any paying guests, nor would any visitor (or your hosts) be on premises during such times, which occur rarely if at all.
  
  Presently, I'm looking for 5 days of assistance.

  Aide

  I own a 7 acre property in County Wexford, Ireland. I am not particularly handy, and am looking for assistance with various tasks, from developing our garden (installing beds for vegetables, making the existing greenhouse usable) to general DIY/building projects (from the small to the large type of project). The property is majestic, the area is beautiful, and the opportunities galore.

  Hébergement

  We have five bedrooms of which we are generally only using one - or sometimes when guests visit, two. We have 2 twin bedrooms and one double bedroom available, in a five bedroom manor home on 7 acres.
  
  Food will be provided in our gorgeously remodeled kitchen. Some meals would be provided, otherwise plentiful food will be provided for meals on your own. If you are into cooking that's great too.
