What a beautiful experience! It was a real pleasure to meet Eoin and his family. I recommend this experience if you want to be in contact with nature and enjoying in a relax atmosphere. You also have the possibility to do different types of schedule and this is cool. We as a volunteers share our own little house, so there is the opportunity to meet people and practicing your English (if this is one of your goals). the farmis a small town, but you have a good public transport to get to Dublin, maybe there is just one “inconvenience”, you need to walk 10 minutes by road to get to town.

Perfect experience to connect with rural lifestyle, animals and nature. Eoin and his family are open and welcoming. Tasks were more related with house cleaning and gardening, than with childcare. But if you are looking for that it's perfect. Great experience to connect with nature and local people!

I worked in the house cleaning and watching the 2 daughters (6&8). They also have two teenage sons in the house but we didn't watch them. I would do dishes, vacuum, mop, and general cleaning. The house is a 30 minute walk and 45 minute bus ride into Dublin. From dublin you can get anywhere in the country. I also did some gardening work. The hours were respected and the family is super kind! They also provide food for you!

I had an incredible experience, I live in a big city, for me being in the countryside is always special! I love the silence of the countryside, it's been almost two months, and I say goodbye with a pain in my heart, I'm already missing the animals, Abbi (horse), Cammy, cats, chickens, birds, cows, sheep and everything I experienced in this work, which for me was a great pleasure! Eion helped me a lot, correcting my English and pronouncing patiently! I thank Eion and his family for the welcome!

This has been my first experience as a volunteer and Im very happy. Eoin and Marthena have been very kind to me, they have helped me when I needed it, they have been understanding with my English and they have helped me a lot to improve it. The housework is simple and if you like nature it is a very quiet and beautiful place. The house is 15 minutes walk from the town where you have all the services. As volunteers, we have a house for ourselves and I have shared space with 3 travelers and with them I have been able to practice the language. I am very grateful to the family and the girls!

I stayed at Eóin's house for a month, it was very quiet and the work is very easy, they are very flexible with the schedules. I was with other exchange students and I learned a lot from them too. The girls are lovely and quiet. The location is good, close to the city and Dublin 40 minutes. I recommend it to anyone who is looking for their first volunteering.

A great opportunity to experience rural living in a cute and authentic Irish village. Tasks are easy and hours can be flexible, plenty of time to explore neighbouring towns and cities. Eoin and his family are very welcoming and do what they can to make your experience as positive as possible.

It was great to meet an Irish family who were kind to their WorldPackers- I enjoyed helping as a volunteer and getting to know what the Irish families are like in Ireland

Eóin and his family are incredible hosts, they made us feel welcome and comfortable from the start. This was our first volunteering experience and we couldn't be happier! The tasks were simple, and the kids are lovely and a joy to be around, we had a lot of fun with them! We also got to share a home with other volunteers from different places and met incredible people there. We recommend this experience to anyone and hope to comeback sometime in the future!
