    Beschreibung

    Our place in Errington, BC, nestled on 5 acres of serene forest land, is a tranquil retreat just a stone's throw away from the stunning beauty of Parksville on Vancouver Island .During the summer, we operate a charming traditional B&B, and in the off-season, we also love to wander off at times. Lately, hosting Workawayers has brought even more vibrancy to our lives. We appreciate the fresh perspectives and energy that people bring into our home.

    Current Needs;

    At this moment, we need help outside with various tasks:

    Garden work and Clean-Up: This includes the removal of small dead trees and branches.chainsaw if you have experiences.
    Cleaning Outdoor Furniture: Ensuring our outdoor spaces are inviting for guests.
    Raking Gravel and Leaves: Keeping our garden tidy is essential.
    Repair Projects: Some minor repairs around the property may be needed.
    Manage chicken coop and get to know our vocal girls. no rooster.

    Requirements
    Transportation: Having a car is a must since public transport isn’t an option in our area. This will allow you to explore the beautiful surroundings on your own time.

    Seasonal Staffing
    Just to clarify, we hire local staff during the high summer season to cater to our B&B guests. Unfortunately, we cannot offer live-in accommodations at high season times but we do have an extra outdoor building with single bed.

    Perks of Staying Here

    Our WIFI is great, and people love the tranquility here. People like the food I love to prepare. You’ll find stunning waterfalls and beautiful beaches nearby. If you’re into skiing, there’s a slope just an hour and a quarter away. Come and experience life on our beautiful Vancouver Island - it’s truly something special!

    Join us for an enriching experience!
