This was a really good volunteering experience - I learnt a lot while staying here and enjoyed hanging out with the family so much that I extended my stay to six weeks. Fleur's property is very central and it's super easy to get to Dublin, Bray, Greystones, Glendalough, Wicklow Town, ect. Fleur and her family are extremely welcoming and the cabin that you stay in is private and very insulated. 10/10 stay, I'm actually coming back in December lol :-)
