  • Description

    Description

    I am a yoga teacher and my daughter is 4 years old. My husband is currently stuck overseas for approximately 3 months and we are looking for help while he is away. We have a 1,000 sq m block and large house. We have lots of fruit and vegetables growing in our garden as well as chickens in the back yard. We enjoy outdoor activities like going to play grounds, the beach, outings to the zoo and aquarium. We also love doing art and craft, cooking and playing board games. We are very down to earth.

    Space for parking camper vans

    There are a few level areas that are big enough and have access for large motorhomes and buses. Note, the driveway is steep and gravel, so not ideal for towing heavy caravans in 2WD vehicles. A normal 2WD vehicle will get up fine, it is only when towing a heavy load that there might be a problem. We have a 4WD farm ute that can assist to tow up the driveway if needed.
