Description
We are a family of 5, originally from the UK, but have been living in Australia for 20 years. We live on an acre 20 mins from Byron Bay, NSW, and 5 mins from Bangalow. The 3 boys are aged 13, 10 and 8 and are active outdoor kids who love animals, nature and surfing. We have a very friendly dog called Pip.
We have spent the last year and a half living in tents and our cabin while our new roundhouse was being built. It is now finished and is truly beautiful.
However we now have a lovely, empty, self contained cabin. It is a studio style, with a small kitchen and shower/kitchen and a lovely deck area.
There are an abundance of jobs on our land, especially since finishing the build. Such as, helping to unpack the shipping container, building a chicken coop, creating a veggie patch, generally clearing the land.
It is a lovely spot to explore the best of Australia, stunning beaches, rolling hills, waterfalls and stunning hidden hinterland gems. Our family would love to meet and get to know new people and work together. We live on a beautiful block of land, with a pool and would be happy to share it all.
We are offering self contained accommodation in exchange for 15 hours help for a single person and 8 hours per person for a couple. It would be necessary for you to have a car. We would be happy to discuss offering meals if required.
