    Description

    We live in the small village of Castlelyons in north cork in Southern Ireland .

    We live on the edge of the village within minutes to the shop and 2 traditional pubs.
    The house has 3 acres of parkland and a traditional walled garden.
    There is a rose garden, a flower garden, a wild flower garden, an organic vegetable garden, a victorian knot garden and an orchard. There is also a small woodland area.

    We love our animals and have 2 cats, a dog, and 3 miniature horses. There are lots and lots of birds and wild life in the garden. we think we even have a resident fox who we see occasionally.
    Our 3 children and 3 grandchildren visit often as do friends and relatives.

    We really like food and are not vegetarian. if you like to cook the Aga is waiting always wanting to be cooked on.

    We would rather that smokers would not apply.

    Castlelyons is a very lovely and historic village with it's abbey and castle ruins dating back to the 1300's.
    We are very well placed for travelling north, south, east or west. We are 5Kms from the village of Rathcormack, 6 kms from the town of Fermoy and 40 minutes by car or bus from cork city. Its a great location for cycling if you bring your bike. There is good public transport from Rathcormack and Fermoy and we go into the city a couple of times a week if you need a lift! We are an hour from the rock of cashel and 45 mins to cork airport.

    We would like help in the garden and processing the fruit. need painting alongside the wicket fencing around the vegetable garden. Helping with the wood and chopping would be an advantage (but not necessary). Garden jobs include, weeding, watering, mowing the lawn and general maintenance. If it's raining there will be jobs in the house that can be done. Then there will be all the autumn jobs in the garden of clearing leaves and pruning. If you are interested in the garden it is a horticulturalists delight with our hardwoods being 2 or 300 years old.

    We would like to share the cooking with each person contributing and look forward to your favourite dishes.
