Eoin McCann

Both my partner and I have extensive experience working in hospitality and managerial roles.

We are a hard working professional couple in our 30's and we feel we would be perfect for this role as we LOVE Europe, rural settings and have a wealth of experience providing excellent customer service with over 15 years each experience in the hospitality sector and managerial roles.

We spent a lot of time renovating/refurbishing our own home before we went travelling and we did all of it ourselves as we a very detailed individuals who strive for perfection as we believe it is important to complete each task to the highest possible standard and to the best of our abilities. We also owned and managed a successful scented candle and fragrance company from 2018-2022 which we later sold.

We are extremely fastidious individuals and have a passion for entertaining guests. We have a full driving licence and love animals. We are both quite good cooks who love making seasonal dishes from fresh produce. We like to take inspiration from all cultures around the world. Our specialities are Irish, Italian ,Chinese, Middle Eastern and a little Indian as well as vegetarian/vegan options. We feel It is always good to be diverse in life and are always open to try new things we're possible.

Myself and my partner would describe ourselves as calm, loyal, respectful, reflective & composed individuals who love to meet new people, learning new skills and taking on new challenges. We also love travelling and exploring new countries/cultures and immersing ourselves in the cultures of where we travel & stay around the globe.

Having mastered our previous roles and gained beneficial life & professional skills in the Retail, Financial & Hospitality Sectors we now feel that we could apply these skills to a more settled role as we feel we have a lot to give but now understand what it is that we want in life and that is stability.
 

My family had holiday lets growing up so I can cook, clean, wash, iron and do gardening work. From a young age I was taught hospitality skills which fed my love of all things hospitality. Having to look after properties and helping guests with their day to day needs and over seeing the maintenance and up keep of these properties then lead me into a career in management.

Thank you for taking the time to read about us, we are available to start immediately and we are EU (Irish) Citizens.

Career Break
(November 2020 – February 2022)
In the initial after-math of COVID19 I reflected upon my life and decided to step away from full time employment and take time to recoup and rest as I had been working over 60/70 hour weeks to support the business in this time.
• I decided to explore the holistic world
• Take courses such as Reiki, breath work 
• Travel (when safe to do so)
• Spend time with loved ones

Once I felt I had achieved and explored everything I wanted to I decided it was time for me to re-enter to work place.
