Program Details

Hi everyone! 😊

We’re looking for lovely people to come and help us out with some maintenance, gardening and renovation work on our family property in the Irish mountains.

We are Jen and Fin, Irish/Dutch siblings who split our time between many different places.

A few years ago, we returned to Ireland to renovate our family property, with the hope of bringing some fun and life back to the place. With the help of friends and family, we managed to get a lot done.

We love having people around and meeting people from all over the world. It’s always been a great experience working together, sharing stories, learning from each other and making new friends along the way.

I (Jen) have also done a few volunteering experiences myself in Italy and always found it a really nice way to meet people and experience a place in a different way.

The property is tucked away in one of Ireland’s most stunning mountain landscapes, surrounded by nature, with a beautiful garden and plenty of peace and quiet. We also love to socialise, go hiking and explore the area together, so there’s usually plenty of opportunity to do something fun. We’re about a 40-minute drive from the closest towns, with plenty to do and see.

We’re looking for mature, kind-hearted and trustworthy people who genuinely want to come, help out and enjoy the experience, and who are also comfortable working independently.

Ideally, we’re looking for people who can stay for at least a month.


Activities & Shift

Jobs will include painting, gardening, planting, fencing, general maintenance and small renovation projects.

We sometimes work together and sometimes apart. We usually like to cook together or take turns and sometimes just do our own thing.

20 hours help per week and plenty of free time to relax and explore. 🌿 Usually Monday - Friday and we work in the mornings but always flexible.
