About This House Sit

Someone who is reliable, tidy, loves cats, and can happily take care of them. Our home is in a quiet country setting, 4km from Bantry town. We would welcome a sitter arriving a day early. Feed cats morning and evening, keep their water bowl clean and filled. Water plants outdoors and the conservatory just once during the week. Water the polytunnel every other day. (Veg in season can be eaten!) Keep place tidy and clean up before you leave. Nestled into 3 acres of partially wooded land, my home has a mature pond, meadow and lots of beautiful trees. It's beautifully quiet, and there is a cottage directly beside the house which is rented out on a long term basis, to a lovely woman and her son. The home has double glazing, all mod cons, TV, wifi, laundry room, woodstove, central heating, etc. Only 4 kms from Bantry and close to the beautiful Mealagh river which is a lovely place to walk. Nearby is Glengarriff (25 minute drive) - gorgeous woodland walks and food truck park. Phosphorescent kayaking in Glengarriff Bay. Visit Garinish island. Ballydehob only 30 minutes drive; great restaurants and pubs there. Bantry House and Gardens in Bantry, recommended for visiting, walking. Friday market every week in Bantry; Saturday market in Skibbereen (45 minutes drive). House sitter will have their own large room and own bathroom with bath, shower, etc. Should have own car to get into town for groceries/ explore further afield. The lane up to the house is a unpaved, but we manage to drive our regular sedan car up and down it by staying to one side of the grass median! The house is in a countryside location, so it's ideal for someone wanting a quiet retreat/ access to lots of Nature, birdsong and flowers. No, sorry.
