Work

The vineyard requires lots of maintenance during the summer. Although the real work starts in late April and continues till late August. There is also an opportunity for one person to start in March to help finish up pruning. The vines need training and tieing, pruning and thinning. The grass always needs cutting, the dogs always want to go walking and the horse needs to be ridden! We have a boat which we use whenever we can and love to take people out for a cruise!

Accommodation

We have a large house so you would have a private bedroom with shared bathroom. We live on a quiet street on 5 acres within 5 minutes walk of the beach.
