We are looking for a person who loves horses to join our team. You will be asked to ask to take care of the horses as well as cleaning the stable and also move horses (riding - if wanted but not necessary, lunging, working from the ground). We will offer you food& accomodation. We are flexible for the time of the job, of course ideal would be a month of trial and then talking about it.

In the time off, remaining on site, she could enjoy the swimming pool, going for a walk, do some horse riding (if she is confident and independent) enjoy the coseby river, go for a ride bike or else, taking the bus and visiting Siena, Florence and all Tuscany. Of course we would be flexible if she wants to go away for a weekend or so.
