Family living: Forest House in Wexford, Ireland


The experience

Welcome to our family home in southeast Ireland. We live by a peaceful forest on a large plot of land with stunning countryside and sea views. We're are an easy-going family who love sharing home-cooked meals and the occasional Irish music session. Just 20 minutes from the seaside and 5 minutes from town, we have wonderful hillwalking nearby and much heritage. Volunteers share a comfortable ensuite room and become part of our family life.
