Description
We are 50km from nearest town (Hastings/Napier) A caravan is set up for accommodation close to main house where shower and toilet facilities are available. We are on a honey bee farm, so people with severe bee sting allergies could get stung, but the probability is very low. The bee business specializes in Queen bee breeding and production & is separate from the help we need to maintain our property. There is no commercial help required, only domestic help.
Self catering or eating at the main house are two options for meals. Judy & I are in our 70’s and my 3 daughters, their husbands & seasonal workers are set up on the property as well but not seen as much. Power & Wi-Fi are available along with e- bikes & ordinary bikes. We are based at the top of a hill, so biking around the district requires some level of fitness. The local primary school is 2.6km on the other side of our gorge. There is some bush handy for walking & our road is flat for 3km. There are some spectacular places to visit in your free time. Also predator free with trap lines to check.
We can use some help with quite a few tasks to maintain the property including gardening, housekeeping & general jobs around the place. We look forward to meeting new people as we have in past times employed people from many countries during our busy times.
