Please don't hesitate to ask if there is anything you would like to do while you stay with us, I can find information for you if it's not listed. I'm a qualified child care worker and understand children's emotions and worries when away from home, please know I am kind and patient and will listen and communicate so your child won't feel misunderstood. Sports camps are for children interested in taking part in or learning a new skill in football or hurling. Usually for children up to 13 years old. They need to be booked in and will receive some sports gear. They take place only twice during the summer, once in July and August. If interested, please ask if available before booking this activity.

Soccer camps are for children up to 17 years of age. A few camps take place during the summer months.

Full Immersion Guaranteed

The host family optionally guarantees that there will be no other people speaking the same language during the stay.

Life with your host family

Monday to Friday our children attend school, therefore the mornings are free for us to enjoy, such as shopping trips, trips to the beach, and walks in the woods. Climbing hills and mountains is where we can get close to the wind turbines and see the most beautiful views the southeast has to offer. When the children finish school, we enjoy trips to the woods, beaches, football, and hurling training. Colin is a GAA and hurling coach; he would be happy to teach your child a new skill.
