A VERY POLITE REQUEST - Hi everyone, hope you’re all doing great! Just a quick one, if you happen to know, or recognise, where we have chosen to buy, we’d really appreciate it if you didn’t give our location away in the comments. Given the trouble we’ve had in the past we want to be as discreet as possible with where we are, hope you understand. Secondly, thanks to all the Irish who have so far been overwhelmingly welcoming, it means a lot. Thirdly, hope you all love our new home as much as we do and we can’t wait to share all the ups and downs of restoring this place with you all! 😃

I was expecting it to be falling asunder but, from what I’ve seen, it looks a great wee spot on a nicely manageable plot. Exciting times ahead for the 4 of you! It’s always nice to see people who fall for Ireland make a huge commitment and come and live here. I hope we as a country live up to your expectations! The very best of luck to you, you’re Irish now!! 🤣

I'm a grown man of 52 this year and I will admit to having happy tears in my eyes watching this, your complete happiness and joy. I will probably never get to live my dreams so you go girls and live it for me, so heartwarmingly happy for all 4 of you x.

So excited for you girls. We moved to France 4 years ago, into a farmhouse with lots of out buildings. I carried on my business as a handyman and gardener and love it over here. I remember the first day we came over with our caravan. We were so excited and that excitement has never left us. I hope you are as happy as we are, take care and look forward to your videos and adventure.

Melted my heart watching Summer and AJ be so evidently delighted ❤❤❤

The Excitement and Happiness you are both giving out in this video brought tears to the eyes of this old man. I haven't seen anyone so happy for so many years you two are just a joy to see. Thanks for allowing me to see how great life can be after all the stresses youve endured on the way to this fantastic day. Change the locks Lou. Em will never feel safe there alone without you putting a decent lock on the door. Grandad advice - always change the locks you never know who has been handed a copy of the old ones.

The positive side of your new home is that you have a lifetime to upgrade it. Enjoy!!!

Congratulation girls. Myself and my wife we are Polish but living in Ireland for the last 20 years, so we call ourselves Irish by now :-) Only 3 years ago we fulfilled our dream of a house in the countryside. We are only 10mins form the next small town, but the house in nature is amazing especially having 3 year old twin girls which enjoy the surroundings a lot. Ireland is beautiful and people here can't compare with any other country they are just amazing. Weather could be better ,but you can't have everything in your life :-)

You can see that AJ and Summer KNOW that this is their house and they are so glad to have the space. Your new place is gorgeous. I know it will take a lot of work but that will only prove to make it more "YOURS".

CONGRATULATIONS. I nearly cried watching your excitement, and AJ and Summer’s reaction to their new home. It’s going to be a beautiful home for you all 🤗💕

Excited to follow the refurbishing and renovating tour... from Sunny South Africa!

My tip is dont gut everything to start with, i did that and ended up taking nearly 2yrs before i could move in. I would suggest concentrate on the outbuildings, do the workshop you will need it, do the office space so you have somewhere comfortable in the day and evenings, dont touch the bath and the kitchen till last. Sleep in the van if worried about the mould, and then even though you are ripping the walls, try to concentrate on a room at a time. Obviously roof first but you know that already. Also the damp could just be as its empty.. if you get the fires working and heat clean and air it, it might be okay

I am so excited when Sunday rolls around and I get to watch another video of yours. My top pick for the redesign is #1. I love that you would keep the integrity of the original cottage and then add on to the far side. I like the L shape of it and the original stone front and then the wood addition. Keep up the good work and Craig, I especially love the new hair clips and bows, they really bring out your eyes ❤

Don't forget to dance on those kitchen tyles to the Irish music. The kitchen is where everything happens in Ireland. That kitchen table could tell stories. Welcome to Ireland xxxx

Seeing AJ and Summer - brings a tear to my eye at how happy they are! Loved AJ's antics. 🥰

Oooohhhh girls! I couldn't keep the smile off my face, either! We are both so thrilled for you.

Hello, good to see your enthusiasm for renovating the cottage. I have renovated 3 properties in FRANCE all stone built and with compacted earth floors. Now a bit of reality you will need to damp proof the floors and insulate the external walls. Stone built walls no matter how thick are a heat sink. Don’t be mislead by going for a natural wall appearance,in winter you need to be warm in your hose.

@mariekellHigg

Old stone buildings need to 'breath' therefore they need a special insulation board that won't trap moisture in. The board recommended to me was called 'Calcitherm'. Hope this helps! Looking forward to following you on your exciting journey. Best of Luck and welcome to Ireland!
