    Description

    I have a small farm and some horses and have spent my life competing in show jumping, eventing and dressage. I have ceased competing but still love to be around horses. I love to travel and also own a mill in mid Pyrinees in France. On my farm I would like general farming help and experienced help with horses. I was a WWOOF host for 20 years. I like to recycle reuse and reduce so I'm interested in farming without the use of chemicals. I also have a cute JR bitch for light comic relief. My house has a self contained guest room with bathroom and sitting room. I also love art and making things from recycled materials.

    I'm close to fabulous surf beaches, lovely forests and lakes. If you like fishing it's a nice walk to the lake, for bream, whiting and flathead. Buchan Caves are an hour's drive away if you like exploring underground.
