Dear guests, let me introduce you to our family! We are a family of 7 (Mom, Dad, and 5 kids) and live in the countryside on a farm. I work part-time from home, my husband works as a rigger, and our children all attend school. Our eldest is in secondary school, our 3 other children attend primary school, and our youngest is in her last year of preschool. We are a very active family. We love animals and have lots of pets! We are a very active family, and we love getting out of the house in the afternoon and on the weekend to visit places of interest, play games, go for walks, and attend any local events that are happening in the area. We have a wide range of interests, including baking, gardening, rugby, football, arts and crafts, sightseeing, paddleboarding, bowling, watching movies, playing tennis, board games, and card games. We enjoy spending time together as a family and are always interested in trying something new! We have been a host family for ten years. We have hosted long and short-term academic students as well as short-term students who come for English lessons and activities. We have hosted children as young as 8 up to 18. We enjoy meeting new people, showing them around Ireland, helping them with their English, and most importantly, helping to make wonderful memories. Our children love spending time with the kids that come to stay with us, and they keep in touch with them after they return home. We are looking forward to meeting you and making memories!
