    Description

    Hi there! We’re looking for help with some projects at our lifestyle block in Matakana. We have loads of gardening to do, as well as some other projects. Is this something you’d be interested in? Our property is off grid, we have a couple of tiny houses, we’re on solar and have an outdoor lounge. It’s not the easiest property, but it’s got the most beautiful views and is perfect for anyone who loves nature, bush walks and bird life. We don’t live at the property, just come up in weekends.

    Thanks!
    John & Sandy

    Accommodation

    We live in Birkenhead, Auckland, so the property will be all yours during the week. We normally stay in Matakana in the weekends, but there’s plenty of room for up to 4 pax.

    The tiny houses are small cottages, 2x bedrooms and 1x kitchen/dining. There’s an outdoor Lounge with a large fire/pizza oven.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    Matakana Is a great location really close to the city (only 50mins by car). We are happy for you interact with us as much or as little as you like. The house you are staying in will have WiFi access. You can choose to eat on your own or with us and we will provide food in the house.

    We can talk about the work more upon meeting but we will be happy for you to work to your own timetable.

    Thanks Sperrie and Sandy
