Help with big house and garden

I think words fail me when I try to describe my time at the guest house. I truly felt like part of the family. Annie, Pete, and Gus made me feel so welcome and comfortable. They were always checking in to see if I was happy, asking if I was tired, and telling me to take a 10-minute break. They made sure we had eaten and had plans to explore the beautiful region. You'll basically be living in peace and quiet, only hearing the sheep, cows, and chickens. I'm really going to miss everything! And of course, the interaction with Irish culture was incredible.

Je suis resté un mois dans la CreaghHouse, c'était une très belle expérience ! Il faut certes s'adapter à l'absence de chauffage et ne pas être très à cheval sur la propreté mais les hôtes sont incroyablement chaleureux ! J'ai appris la danse irlandaise, j'ai participé à mon premier ceili ! Les tâches sont très faciles, on ne dépasse jamais les heures indiquées dans l'annonce ! Merci pour ce séjour, Annie, Pete, Gus !

It was an amazing and immersive experience. I met a lot of people from all the world. The house was cold and little bit mess but I had been warned by Annie, so It's was ok for me. Annie and Pete are very nice and flexible. It was good for me to be in countryside, it's a beautiful, calm, nears to the forest and lake. I improved my English and I am more confidente to speak.

The guest house is the kind of place you don't expect much from when you arrive and when you're leaving you realize you've had more experiences than you imagined. The family has a beautiful energy, the house is always full of music, dancing, friends, parties and lots of love. The work is smooth, everyone is always very friendly, flexible and helpful. It's certainly a unique experience. Thank you Annie, Peter and all the incredible people I've met in this place I now call home. I'll miss you! ❤️

Fantastic experience! Annie, Pete, and everyone at the guest house are all incredible and kind people who make you feel right at home. They go out of their way to make sure you feel comfortable and included. The tasks vary, as there is always something to be done, and there is flexibility. I learned quite a lot about the traditional Irish dance and music, which was an awesome cultural immersion. The house was a tad cold, since it was winter time, but manageable in my opinion. My experience at the guest house will forever be in my heart. Thank you for everything!

I don't think the place has the minimum conditions of habitability. The house is basically in semi-ruins. Everything is very dirty and dusty. The kitchen is basically unhealthy. The bedroom is messy (that's the least of it), but it's also quite dirty. And the jewel in the crown is the bathroom. It has no ceiling and the walls are full of green mould up to waist height (there are cleaner stables). In short, when I saw that, I left.I feel sorry for Gus, because he seemed like a very nice guy, but I don't think that house is habitable.

It clearly states in the description that part of the house is still under renovation. It's not perfect but that is the reason we receive volunteers We receive many volunteers, if you look back at the reviews you'll see how many people have given us 5 star reviews and had a fantastic time here. I'm sorry it didn't suit you, but your opinion is not everybodys

We would strongly advice people not to go there! The water has dangerous amounts of lead in it, the food is all expired, dirty and mouldy. Our accommodation was awful, the room was very dusty and full of spiders, the sheets were very dirty and there was black mould on the walls and ceiling. There was mildew and blood stains on the mattress, duvets/ pillows. The only good part about our trip was meeting all the wonderful volunteers there, and the nature was beautiful too. We didn't even last 3 days before getting terribly sick.We were mislead by all the positive reviews so we need to be honest.

The water is safe, it doesn't have more lead in it than the average city house. You also didn't voice any of your concerns to us so that we could help you fix them. You did zero work and then faked a migraine and snuck out of the house without telling anyone. Most people who come here are clearly hardier than you and love it, hence the positive reviews.

A very enriching experience. Annie, Pete and Gus are simply the best. They will make sure to include you in their cultural and very enjoyable activities. Both Annie and Pete are well-informed people, so you can talk to them about a lot of things and learn too. I always felt like I was surrounded by nice people, family and friends. Everyone who frequents the house. I totally recommend this position, especially if you like dancing, music and nature.

My period was in Nov/Dec, it was a challenge for me to get used to the cold inside the house, especially my room, but electric blankets, duvets and clothes were provided and the dining room was always warm and for group interaction. It's a historic country house, it's like traveling back in time and it can be a little difficult for those who aren't used to farms, but it's an enriching experience that added a lot to my trip! ✨️ The people are kind, everyone welcomed me and was available for my needs. I had a lot of leisure time. I hope to see you guys in the summer! Thank you!!! 🫶
