Description
I am a single guy living in the hinterland area near Byron Bay in a beautiful hilltop property with spectacular views, 20 metre swimming pool, hot tub and sauna. I have a 35 acre property with small organic raised bed veggie garden, citrus grove, and very large, beautiful old growth rainforest accessed with cool walking tracks.
I sometimes need helpers for short periods for a few days to a week for gardening, weeding, property maintenance, and other types of work.
I usually ask or 4 hours a day work for 6 days a week in exchange for room (in the guest room in the house) and 3 meals a day.
My workers can use the swimming pool and hot tub. And I often go to Byron Bay for surfing trips.

We spend more than a week with Guy and it was definitely our best experience we´ve ever had. Guy is such a nice, open, friendly and funny person you can always talk to and the place he lives in is simply amazing. After a few hours of work in the garden, house or on his walking tracks, we just cooled down in the pool or if we were too cold at one… read more

Jonas and Jule were perhaps my best workers ever. They stayed at my house for about 10 days. They are very personable, easygoing and friendly and were fluent in English. They were only 19 years old but far more mature and responsible than their age. They performed every task with perfection (much better than I could) and minimal supervision. They… read more

Very nice host, Guy is very nice, friendly and accommodating. The house is amazing. He brought us to the beaches and waterfalls after work and during our days off. The work is not hard. Thank you Guy!

We stayed 3 days with Guy. It's a nice man with a beautiful house. He took us for going to surf with him, it was a good experience for both of us, first time surfing in Australia. We met his best friend, it's a nice man too. Work outside the house was hard because of sun but did in a good atmosphere, the rest of the work was inside the house,… read more

Staying with Guy was definitely an experience! One of the most beautiful places I have ever stayed.

Guy is a cool person that looks really younger than his age. Was really good to pass time with him, we went in really nice beaches for surfing and his house is simply amazing.
The work was just gardening and a bit of cleaning but nothing of really hard and we could relax in the jacuzzi at the end of the day. And always good music :)
