  Descrição

  We are a family of myself, my son (11) and 2 dogs, living in a town house in Portumna town.
  The house is Victorian in era and includes a stone barn and sheds to the rear with an archway leading to a long garden at the back. The courtyard is enclosed with stone walls and with a south facing and west facing aspect gets plenty of sun during the day and into the evening. We are interested in growing vegetables and we currently grow in the polytunnel, however could do with some help with the outside growling area and other areas of the property that need enhancement, including fencing and stone work and perhaps some other projects such as creating a pond. We also have hens in a run in the garden. Portumna has a lot to offering terms of nature and culture including the Portumna Forest Park, The swimming area at the lake and Portumna castle all walking distance as well as evening pubs and traditional music twice per week.
  I like to cook healthy meals which is why I like to grow, however, we are not strictly vegetarian so carefully sourced meat is also on offer.

  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  At least eating with myself and my son and spending time with us, you will be exposed to our culture and we are open to providing as much cultural exchange as possible. We like to interact with people and have evening BBQs.
  Our property itself was built in the 1800 and there's no shortage of character character.
  We like to take bike rides through the forest and swim at the lake and will give as much info as possible on how you'd like to spend free time.
