Doubly vettedAbout us
My family and I reside in the countryside of Cork, southern Ireland, approximately 1km from the village of Ballyclogh and 4km from Mallow town. Our home is a five-bedroom dormer bungalow that boasts a large kitchen and a spacious sunroom furnished with a grand piano. The garden is sizeable and features a large patio area, perfect for relaxing in the sun or during the late afternoons. My daughter attends Trinity College in Dublin, where she studies astrophysics, while my son is an emerging filmmaker and commutes to college in Cork City each morning via train, which costs less than 2 euros. Meanwhile, I am a teacher in a Special School, and my daily commute involves driving to Ballincollig. We enjoy a laid-back lifestyle and love taking walks, indulging in photography, and listening to music. Both my children are passionate musicians, and I love to sing. They are also computer game enthusiasts. Mallow town offers an array of activities and facilities, including Gallic games, soccer, rugby, running clubs, swimming, dance, drama, scouts, and more. Our home features the fastest fibre wifi available, ensuring a seamless online experience. We enjoy scouting and generally being together
