    Beschreibung

    We have two separate jobs in different parts of our farm and tourism business. As we have two roles going, this may suit two friends or a couple or two separate people.

    1. Housekeeper/Cleaner
    Working in the tourism business (The Hideaway Experience, ), housekeeping in the 5 lodges on the farm. No experience of housekeeping is necessary but a first class attention to detail is required.

    2. Farm Worker
    The role involves driving a tractor, forklift and operating a quad bike. Looking after cows and sheep. We are only looking for a person who has recent experience of operating this type of farm machinery.

    Please note that our farm is not far from the City of Dundee (5 miles) but that we are not on a bus route and we are looking for someone who has a car, or who will buy a car. We have helped previous workaways select a car for sale nearby.

    We are a small family beef, sheep and cropping farm in South Angus. Our farm sits on the Sidlaw hills overlooking the city of Dundee, with beautiful views of the local area. We run a 5 star tourism business on the farm.

    We have experience with international people working for us and we have also travelled a lot ourselves including two years in Australia and New Zealand in our 20s .



    The roles will also include looking after the farm, house, accommodation, dogs and cat while the owners are away from time to time.

    You will work over 4 or 5 days most weeks, 30 to 40 hours per week with time off to explore the local area.

    We pay Workaways for all hours they work at minimum wage UK levels currently £11.44 per hour age over 21 and £10.50 per hour aged 18 to 21.

    Accommodation is in a large static caravan. There are facilities for you to cook meals. There is no charge for the accommodation but we take off around £40 per week for gas and electricity - if more is used then that amount is charged, if less is used, then the exact amount is charged.

    Ross and Caroline have two children, Finlay who is 19 and Sophie who is 17.
