Help
We have three farms with horses, cattle and dogs within a distance from 40 minutes. We are a fun loving family who spend time outdoors and enjoy the beautiful Australian bush. Our accommodation is basic and we are experienced hosts. I travel to Brisbane regularly so picking you up from a train station or the city is not a problem. We expect help with our horses, feeding, watering and general maintenance - no special skills required but just a willingness to give things a go. Preparing and cooking meals and general household chores. Helpers need to be self motivated and able to be self sufficient.
