We live close to Halls Gap, right in the middle of the Grampians National Park (public transport available). We've been volunteers in the past ourselves and therefore want you to have a good time with us as much as we're looking forward to some help. We've hosted over 100 people throughout the years on other platforms.
It might interest you that there's usually paid work to be found in Halls Gap, in restaurants, hotels or vinyards.

You would get to stay in a large room by yourself or with your partner in our spectacular home with views to remember on 20 acres of grassland. The bathroom is shared with us. You can use the kitchen and living space as long as you clean after yourself. We have unlimited high speed internet. We are 10 car minutes out of Halls Gap but drive into town almost daily (and can take you along). It's beneficial if you have your own car but not a requirement.
If you love the outdoors you can spend years exploring this area (we've done so for 14 years by now). The town of Halls Gap (10 minute drive) has a service station, small super market and post office. The next bigger town is 15 minutes away. V-line offers public transport to Halls Gap and we head into town daily. We get kangaroos, emus, deer and an amazing selection of birds on our property, right at the edge of the National Park.
Please contact us with a bit about yourself, past experience, skills, etc.
