Description
We are busy family of 4 on a little hobby farm in Murphys Creek. Myself (Rebecca),husband and two boys, 9 & 10 who are both at school. Toowoomba is the largest inland regional city in Australia and is an easy 20min drive.
We have 40 acres with chickens for eggs, a large St Bernard, a pug and 3 British Bulldogs to play with, large heated swimming pool, open top treehouse to star gaze at night and a decent pub just down the road.
You will have your own queen room with toilet.
Our boys will no doubt want you to include you in games and have nurf gun battles every day. If you don’t enjoy children or animals, this is not the place for you.
We kindly ask you to do some garden/outdoor help. This will include picking up sticks, clearing lantana, clearing paddocks mowing and helping to look after a litter of puppies.
We love food and to cook. If you like to/can cook, that would be a bonus for our tastebuds 😃
You must be a non smoker and have excellent hygiene standards.

There is a pub which do tasty meals just 2 mins drive away.
Toowoomba has many parks and gardens to explore, hiking destinations nearby and great shopping, food and nightlife.
We are an hour and half drive from Brisbane and 2hrs from the Sunshine Coast or Gold Coast.
