Trusted Host Family
Doubly vettedAbout us
We are a united family of four (our older son, 18, is currently studying and living in Dublin, our younger son, 13, is in 1st year secondary. We enjoy the outdoors – hiking in the beautiful nearby Comeraghs, swimming, surfing, kayaking on our Copper Coast beaches. We are interested in music, visual art, languages and literature. Having experienced - both my husband and myself - family hospitality during our studies abroad in the past, we would be happy to offer this experience to international students, and to have our younger son benefit from this too.
We live in a lovely bright welcoming renovated cottage with 4 bedrooms (180 m2) and a small garden in Annestown village, 2 minutes walk from a beautiful safe beach.
