Description
We are a family living in an old big house in the woods. We have a variety of different tasks, inside and outside. We have rented 3 old houses in the woods, situated 45 minutes by train from Copenhagen - one house for living - one for guests - one for work.
We came here 4 years ago and fully enjoy to be surrounded by trees - train to Copenhagen 15 minutes away - walking through the woods. Workawayers, often 3-5 at a time have their own room in their own house. In this house there is kitchen for workawayers and 2 bathrooms. You can stay min 3 weeks or perhaps you are interested in a long time stay?
We are interested in music, theatre, nature and food. 4 children are studying classical music and form together a professional string Quartet. You help 5 hours 5 days a week, daytime Monday- Tuesday off.
