Description
We are a family who live on a lovely one and a half acre block on the outskirts of Mount Barker. I work long hours and need help with garden maintenance and general tidying up around the property. You get to stay in a beautiful self contained cottage with its own kitchen and bathroom. Linen etc... is provided.

Help
We ask that Workawayers guests do 3 hours per day (21 hours per week) of general garden maintenance and any extra tasks that need doing (such as painting etc..) as needed. We are close to the township of Mount Barker, which has everything from shops, cafes, cinema, library and excellent public transport to the city or Adelaide. Helpers without a car can catch local busses and visit the beautiful Adelaide Hills and the city of Adelaide.

English: Fluent
Accommodation
We have beautiful private accommodation for you – a self-contained 1 bedroom cottage on our block which could suit up to 2 helpers (More if you are all travelling together and don't mind a fold out bed in the cottage lounge room). It has its own bathroom, kitchen and garden, so you get lots of space. It is perfect for travelers who are independent and like their own house.
What else ...
We are flexible with work hours. Helpers often do more work early in the week so they can have days off and explore the region. We have local busses that go to the city, Hahndorf and Strathalbyn. If you have a car, Victor Harbour is about a 45 minute drive and has beautiful beaches and scenery
