Work

We would welcome the participation on a volunteer basis from someone to assist us in exchange for tipi or rattan house in the seaside garden along with accommodation & food (which by the way is fab!) starting on a trial period of 5 - 7 days at first, with the optional extension, should both parties wish to (sometimes people just don't get on). The exchange hours would be flexible, with a minimum of 6 to 7 hours per day and the opportunity to switch and extend the week-ends off for traveling and the period could be from mid October 2009 up to May or a portion of that time depending. Being part of a family type atmosphere it would be expected of you to be as flexible and willing to be proactive and either have a knowledge about or have a very keen interest in the natural environment, growing vegetables/herbs, animals, landscaping, cooking etc. Being a confident driver is a pre-requisite and the ability to drive a motorbike or scooter would be very useful. Last but by no means least a people person is an absolute plus.

Accommodation

Either a tipi native american style in either the upper vegetable garden area or in the seaside garden, alternatively a rattan/wood in the upper garden area. Tipi can sleep 2 singles comfortably. Electricity and socket. We are unable to secure the temporary accomodation and therefore are also unable to guarantee security of any photographic or computer equipment you may wish to travel with. Please do so at your own risk. The food is 5* so we have been told by many of our previous guest! 3 wholesome meals are provided during work hours.
