NEW/NOUVEAU !! Welcome to our home!
Welcome to our home in the heart of West Limerick!
Audrey (36) is a holistic therapist and Adam (36) is a TEFL English and kundalini yoga teacher. Adam`s mother, Ibolya (63) is retired and she lives in a log cabin, next door. We all love dogs, we have a Chinese shar-pei called Neo, he is an outside dog and a quiet old gentleman. We are a kind and open-minded couple who lives an active lifestyle, and loves spending time in nature, walking on the beach, swimming, kayaking, cycling etc. We also have a passion for traveling, we like to get to know different nationalities and cultures, and hear different languages to broaden our horizons. When I was 14 years old, I stayed with a Croatian host family as an international student. It was a great experience for me, and I cherish the beautiful memories I gained to this day. Now as an adult, I would like to give the same opportunity to somebody else. We are looking forward to welcoming you to the magical Emerald Island called Ireland. We live in a beautiful scenic area in West Limerick, about 30 minutes from Ballybunion Beach. We live in a traditional Irish stone cottage in the beautiful Irish countryside surrounded by forests. Templeglantine, is a village in west County Limerick, between Newcastle West and Abbeyfeale on the N21, the main road from Limerick to Tralee. It`s a perfect place to explore the beautiful scenic counties of Limerick, Kerry, Cork, or Clare. We live 6.5 km from the Barnagh Greenway Hub which is directly on the Limerick Greenway with a 40 km cycling route. We will be happy to arrange days out with you during your stay with us, we are a busy family who always like to be out and about enjoying activities and adventures. Our family home is suitable for guests of all ages who would like to improve their English and gain confidence in speaking English. We offer our students fully immersive short and long-term stays with our family along with a private double bedroom and shared bathroom. If there are any specific activities or camps you would like to do, please let us know and we will do our best to facilitate you, depending on the activity or camp the price may change. We look forward to welcoming you to our home and family where we promise you will have an amazing experience and gain unforgettable memories!

With us every day is different! During the summer we love days at the beach, hiking one of the many fantastic routes County Kerry has to offer, or kayaking on the sea. We love to explore new places and nature. Each day during summer holiday, we like to explore or do an event together, swimming, walking, water sports or a day at one of our many local beaches and if the weather is not good we choose shopping or the cinema. We also enjoy reading a book, watching films, or playing card games.
During school days, the guests are usually up at about 8 am. Everyone gets ready for the day and we all sit down and have breakfast together. They will attend school from 9am – 3.30pm. They will be picked up from school and we return to the house. If the guests have homework, they are encouraged to complete their homework straight away. After homework, they can head out to play in one of the green areas around our house or meet up with other children from their school. Dinner is usually between 6-8 pm.
During the weekend they meet up with their friends, attend local clubs for sports and hobbies and most importantly relax after a long week of learning English.
Mon fils Evan a passé presque 2 semaines au mois de juillet chez Adam et Audrey. Tout était parfait ! Lui qui est timide s'est senti à l'aise très rapidement. Il a apprécié les nombreuses visites, balades faites en famille, les soirées jeux de société et les cours avec Adam. En plus de passer un très bon moment, il est plus en confiance avec la langue anglaise et les progrès sont là. Un grand merci pour votre accueil, vos attentions, le temps passé avec Evan. Evan veut déjà renouveler l'aventure ... alors à bientôt.
J'ai passé un très bon séjour chez Adam et Audrey. J'avais choisi de suivre quelques cours d'Anglais et une excursion dans les Dingle. La semaine est passée trop vite. Tout était parfait. Mélange d'apprentissage, détente et découverte. De très beaux échanges. La session de massage avec Audrey est inoubliable. J'espère y retourner et je recommande vivement à toute personne qui souhaite vivre en Immersion en Irlande.
Ma fille Constance a passé presque 2 semaines chez Adam et Audrey. Elle était ravie et enchantée du séjour. Tout s'est très bien passé ! Nous avons pris les options transfert aéroport ainsi que 2 excursions (Dingle et falaises de Moher). C'était parfait pour l'organisation du séjour. Les échanges avec Audrey et Adam se sont très bien passés, à refaire sans hésiter !
