Beschreibung
A small rural property located half way between two beautiful tourist cities - Rotorua and Taupo where travellers are welcomed! There is a large garden and vegetable patch which are always in desperate need of constant weeding and there may be other odd jobs around the property - depending on your skills and what needs doing. :-) There may be some help required for feeding out my horse and picking up poop 😬 (but tools are provided!) but she may or may not be on the property - depending on grass availability. There may be small maintenance jobs to do and sometimes cleaning - what can be done will be dependent on skills available but we are keen mainly for any assistance with gardening work, pasture/paddock maintenance. Any landscaping skills or building skills would be very much appreciated!
The property is cute and has a beautiful, peaceful outlook over a river.
We are about 35 mins away from the very popular tourist city of Rotorua - lots of thermal baths and activity to see as well as tourist attractions like the luge, gondola and Redwood forest and biking trail. Taupo - also a very beautiful city with one of the largest lakes in New Zealand and close to the Tongaraio Crossing - is 25 mins away.(The Alpine crossing is 1hr 25mins). We also have the thermal island, Orakei Korako about 20 mins drive up the road. Other places to see a little further away are Hobbiton and Waitomo Glow worm caves. Days off to site see can be negotiated depending on length of stay.
We are on a tank water only and have a septic tank.

Hours can be a little negotiable depending on circumstances but normally between 3-4 hrs daily. If you enjoy cooking, your skills would also be appreciated.
