Ireland
Hello and welcome to our family profile!
We are a family of six, Trish and Tom (mum and dad), Isabelle , Lucy, Bryan, Sadie and of course our dogs, Baloo & Freddie!
Trish is a Classroom Assistant who works in a local primary school and Tom works in banking. We are a very active family who spend our time off enjoying what our beautiful town of Killarney and County of Kerry has to offer. From walking and hiking the many treks and mountains in the area ( home to Carrauntoohill, Ireland’s highest mountain) to sightseeing and visiting the many beautiful heritage sights, to day trips and beach trips to the nearby coast where we love to practice water sports and relax. Our kids love to play Gaelic football, rugby and soccer with our local clubs and would love to introduce you to these sports!
We live 2km from Killarney town in a quiet area, on a family farm with beautiful views of the countryside, but yet within walking distance of the town centre. We have a large garden where we love to relax and have fun with our zip line, trampoline, swings, various ball sports, and finishing a summers day with a barbecue!
We offer our students total immersion when staying with our family along with a private double bedroom. We look forward to welcoming you to our home and family where we promise you will have an amazing experience!

If there are any specific activities or camps you would like to do please let us know and we will do our best to facilitate you. Depending on the activity or camp the price may change.
With four kids every day is different! During the summer we love days at the beach, hiking one of the many fantastic routes Killarney has to offer, or cheering on one of the kids at their soccer or Gaelic football games. Maybe you would enjoy joining one of Sadie in a summer camp? After a busy day we enjoy relaxing and cooking together.
Un immense merci à Trish et sa petite famille qui ont fait vivre une expérience formidable à ma fille Elisa. Elle a été très bien accueillie par toute la famille, rassurée sans cesse par Trish car Elisa n'avait pas un très bon niveau d'anglais. Toute la famille s'est occupée d'elle, la petite Saddie allant même jusqu'à coller des étoiles dans sa chambre pour la rassurer! Trish lui a beaucoup parlé, l'emmenait à la demande d'Elisa courir, faire du shopping. Tout a été mis en oeuvre pour qu'Elisa se sente bien. Les 10 jours sont passés très vite comme l'a expliqué Elisa. Des excursions, journées la mer étaient également prévues. Je recommande fortement cette charmante famille.
Très bon accueil, dans une grande chambre et une belle maison, dans une région magnifique, vraiment, avec beaucoup de choses à voir. J’ai pu accompagner Trish ou ses filles dans de nombreuses activités (balades, championnat de foot gaélique, films, plage). De très bons moments de vacances, tout en étant de plus en plus à l’aise en anglais. Je recommande totalement !
