Casey & Will stayed with us for nearly 3 weeks. They were an absolute pleasure to host and have around. Casey & Will worked independently with the daily tasks allocated to them with the house & garden maintenance. They are both good cooks and relished in the kitchen creating wholesome salads and helping with the cooking.

We met Ian during the weekend only cause he was busy working in the desert. He is a really funny authentic Aussie and he knows very well how to make a bbq. It's so interesting listening to all his stories about his job.
We will never forget our Saturday dinner making gnocchi and tiramisu for them and enjoying Ian's bbq :)
The tasks given are not hard at all and enjoyable because the view that surrounds the property is gorgeous.
Chapman Valley is absolutely stunning, especially on sunrise and sunset time, peaceful and in a great location to explore Geraldton and the area.
We are still in touch with Felicity who has helped us to solve other concerns after we left and we look forward to welcoming both in Sardinia :)
Thanks for open your place to us. So grateful you guys came into our lives, especially during an uncertain time like 2020. We will never forget it! :)
