Ciara O’Brien was an accountant for large companies before Covid hit, when she returned home to Mitchelstown in Co Cork.

Leaving her comfort zone far behind, she has since decided to go into the bed and breakfast game - on her own and pouring her life savings into the venture.

Will it all add up? We find out in the next episode of At Your Service on RTÉ1 on Sunday at 7.30pm.

The Brennan brothers, Francis and John, are worried for Ciara – she only has four rooms. How is she ever going to make a success of her business?

Ciara O'Brien, of Mitchelstown, is on At Your Service on RTE1 on Sunday, October 6.

This is the second episode of the latest series of the hit show, and as usual, the straight-talking Brennans travel the country bringing their expertise and knowledge to one brand new hospitality business each week.

Later in the series, they will head to Cork again, to advise sisters with a passion for wellness, who dream of opening their very own retreat and spa in Glengarriff, Co Cork.
