Castlehouse B+B

Castlehouse is in the third generation of my family and was originally built by my grand father, it is a house that oozes character and old world charm. My house
has a sea and mountain view and is just a five minute walk to the beach, Renvyle where I live is on the Wild Atlantic Way in north Connemara one of the most beautiful parts of Ireland. Castlehouse is located in a small village that has one small and one large shops, another village 1.5 km away has a couple of pubs and restaurants. Connemara National is 5 km away and Kylemore Abbey is 8 km. Any volunteer that comes will have the chance to improve there English and immerse themselves in Irish culture and our way of life, and you will have the chance to meet people from all over the world. Accommodation is a mixture of private and dorm where you will share with just one other person and this is only in peak season. Sorry lads but I only accept ladies as I don't have enough separate accommodation.You will be given three good meals a day and have two days a week off, you will also have the use of my mountain bike during your stay.
I also have a small sheep and Connemara pony farm and you are more than welcome to come along and see how things are done..

I have lived in Renvyle all my life apart from the five years I spent in boarding school. Cycling is my main hobby and the Renvyle area is well suited to it. I am a keen cook with an interest in experimenation I have been running a B+B since 1990 and I love meeting people from all over the world..I enjoy foreign travel and have visited most European countries. I am quiet an easy going person and I treat everybody with respect.

Staying at Castlehouse B&B was a great experience. The work was exactly what's in the description of the position, with some extra tasks depending on what needed to be done in the B&B. Usually we ended by 1 or 2 pm. Tasks were simple and mistakes were corrected by John in a respectful manner. He is a fantastic host. Always helpful, respectful and full of interesting stories. He created a friendly atmosphere in the house.
The area of the B&B is breathtaking. Wonderful for long walks and relaxing in nature. It 's very peaceful and quiet, the perfect place to take a break from big & loud cities

This is my first time volountering and the experience was way better than expected. John is a wonderful host who creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The job is easy and we never worked more than what was expected. I really had the best opportunity to get familiar with the local culture and John was very eager to tell his stories. It was very easy to explore the surroundings and if you are looking for beautiful nature there is few better places.
The food was so lovely, John is an exquisite cook and we also had the opportunity to cook are own food. I loved my time here

My stay at Castle House was unforgettable, I felt at home from the first day. The duties are simple—ironing, cleaning rooms, mopping, doing the dishes and helping serving breakfast—usually done by 1 pm so you have lots of free time. Tully is a lovely village where you can enjoy walks, the small or big beach, and peaceful views of nature. What makes it truly special is John: he is amazing, always making sure you don’t need anything, taking great care of his volunteers, cooking delicious dinners and sharing stories. More than a host, John becomes a lifelong friend you’ll always treasure.

My stay at castle house B&B was absolutely amazing!
From the day I arrived I immediately felt at home. The place is so cosy and John is such a nice person, he loves telling stories and he makes the most amazing dinners.
The work was not hard, making beds, serving breakfast and cleaning. There was plenty of time to explore the beautiful surroundings! The area is breathtaking and there are a lot of nice places you can walk to or you can take John’s bike or the bus.
I would highly recommend staying here if you love nature and cosy atmosphere!
