We spent two wonderful weeks with Fionnuala and Tony. From the very beginning until the end they made us feel like a part of their heartwarming family and never like we were strangers.
That's why working for them never felt like an obligation. We enjoyed working outside on their astonishing property. Our tasks included lawn mowing, wood chopping,

In our free time we loved sitting in their cozy living room playing board games, reading or simply relaxing. Tony and Finnuala also suggested us activities and were happy to show us around. We saw some of the most beautiful places driving around with them and experienced Ireland in every way. They always made sure we were comfortable and gave us our personal space!
They were extremely generous when it came to sharing and preparing meals. The food was always healthy and very delicious.
All in all Tony and Finnuala were amazing hosts and we would definitely recommend anyone to stay with them, especially if you want to experience the Irish culture!

I stayed with Fionnuala and Tony for 1 month and I loved it. They were generous, kind, understanding and patient (my English was not very good).
sunny days (yes there are some and they are beautiful) I gardened, collected wood, cut plants, and helped maintain the pretty garden! I hope the coriander has grown!
and on rainy days I painted inside.

Our stay with Tony and Fionuala gave us the best introduction we could have wanted to Ireland and Beara. We were looked after with sensitivity and provided with all we needed to enjoy our stay, meet locals, explore the district, learn the local culture AND do creative and productive jobs.

My stay at Tony's and Fionnuala's was absolutely wonderful. They are the loveliest people and immediately made me feel very welcome and comfortable in their home.

My stay with Fionnuala and Tony was magical from day one all the way until the end. They shared the comfort and warmth of their lovely home with me for three weeks and during that time I had plenty of opportunities to explore this stunning corner of Ireland as well as being able to offer some substantial improvements to their home and garden. My

But most importantly I got to know Tony and Fionnuala as people and hear their interesting life stories, learn from their wisdom and knowledge and I received a lot of direct and indirect healing. My journey to self-discovery is now forever intertwined with the bends and coils of the labyrinth 🙂 I enjoyed every aspect of my stay and the atmosphere was very friendly and laid back. I am so grateful for this experience and meeting such lovely people, and for any potential volunteers reading this, I highly encourage you to visit them.
