Descripción
Hidden away in the forested foothills of the Andes, this is a stunningly beautiful property with a stream running through it, native woodlands, vineyards and an abundance of trails, flora and fauna.
Tumuñan lodge and vineyard was established in 2006. It's a family run project and care for the environment is taken very seriously.
Everyday there is a different challenge, we have a vineyard, vegetable garden, two dogs, plus clients to attend to!
Help in the garden and vineyard is needed, and also looking after guests at the lodge too.
Computer and photography skills would be a bonus!
Experience in outdoor work would be great. The vineyard is 3 acres and requires quite a bit of work too.
Applicants should be comfortable with solitude and living independently.Tipos de ayuda y oportunidades de aprendizaje

We are looking for dynamic people between the age of 25 and 35. We need help in the garden and help in the vineyard. There are self catering cabins that need to be cleaned and prepared for guests.
Some Spanish language proficiency would be great.
We are looking for people who can spend more than 3 weeks here, maybe even a whole season if you like it!
There is a bus service that gets you to the cabin and from San Fernando (nearest city, 33km away, 80,000 people)

The outdoor work such as digging ditches, building fences, cutting brush and weeds can be physically demanding.
Indoor help is also needed, with website design, promotional offers as well as cleaning and laundry help.
Please remember that we are in a remote rural setting and you should be comfortable enjoying past times such as hiking and reading

Superb in all areas. Kitchen, office, garden and vineyard.
Her energy, positive vibes and work ethic were transmitted to other staff members and volunteers.

We would have him back in a shot!
Best wishes and thank you for everything Leon!
I originally planned to stay for 4 weeks and ended up staying for 7 weeks!
This lodge is amazing! A luxury lodge set in a large estate with rivers, waterfalls and of course the vineyard. Every view is stunning as you are surrounded snow-capped mountains - perfect for hiking and horse-trails.

This was my first workaway and I really enjoyed it. I spent three weeks here even though there weren’t guests every day I always had something to do and was able to work independently which was nice. Will helped a lot with picking me up and dropping me off at the bus stop, making sure I had adequate food and gave me… read more

If I could award them 6 stars I would.
Basically they were so good that I felt I was on vacation.The lodge ran better without me here!
Great in all areas.Indoors and outdoors. Nice people to have around. Quick, intelligent and fun.
Charming hostess to the guests. Good kitchen skills and never afraid to muck in where needed.
thanks so much!
We stayed for about 2 weeks on Wills property. The lodge is in an amazing location. The cabin is very private for volunteers and contains everything you will need. There is usually a lot of work to be done, either in the kitchen/lodge or on the property, but the workaway still feels relaxed and there is no pressure… read more
The guests loved them and so did we!
Highly recommended
But also they did some excellent work around the property. Stefan is a very skilled handyman.
I can't recommend this couple more highly.
Best wishes,
Will
The surrounding is absolutely stunning and perfect to go for hikes on your day off.
William and Nisa are very friendly and look after the volunteers perfectly. And of course the 2 dogs we really fell in love them.

Willing and able to do any task that running a lodge and vineyard in the mountains requires.
Always happy, smiling and positive.
I'd have them back to manage the business any day!
Highly motivated and competent in all areas. Was an enormous help on the wine project going through years and years of receipts and accounts, as well as having some useful insights with launching a brand. She was also great in the kitchen and then lodge, customer service.
We wish her the best and she is always… read more

Great with guests. Great in the office. Great in the garden and vineyard.
We really miss her.
Anyone who accepts her application will not be disappointed
We have had some incredible volunteers over the years, but none have surpassed Brittney. It's only a shame ther is not a 7 star platinum rating we could post.
Many thanks for everything Brittney.
A typical day for me was helping out with cleaning up after breakfast service & then doing work on the computer to help with more marketing/biz related items until the early afternoon. I… read more

Good luck Milo, and thank you.
We wish they could have stayed longer. Several years would be ideal!

We wish you the best.

A highly intelligent young women who will go far!
The surronding area is beautiful and peaceful.
Thank you again Will and Carolina for receiving me, I wish you the best in Tumunan !
They were a brilliant help in all areas, especially promotional work, reservation systems, calendars and technology in general.
We were sad to see them go and I would really recommend them for any other hosts looking for highly skilled people.
All the volunteers stay together in a cabin. Everyone or every couple has a private bedroom, which was was very comfortable and clean, and so was the cabin. Being very cozy and well equipped, we particularly appreciated the wood… read more
Very polite, well presented and extremely good people to have around.

Every task was met with enthusiasm and I would not hesitate to recommend them to other hosts, or in fact anybody who they might work for in the future.
We very much appreciate that they have recommended us to other travellers.
All the best!
If all volunteers of were this calibre then we would be home and dry.
Ross is multi talented and can attend demanding guests as well as just get on with vineyard tasks. especially useful is Ross's ability to connect with other volunteers and explain what needs to be done.

Great people to have around they very quickly became integrated into our team and family.
We really enjoyed the enthusiasm and interest they showed in all our operations, from vineyard work, attending to guests, cleaning the kitchen and cooking.

Much of our time was spent in the vineyard as we prepared it for spring however the work can also be varied and acting as a helping hand inside their luxury lodge can split up the working week quite nicely.
We were accommodated in a cosy 3 bed cabin… read more
The vineyard was in desperate need of work and in sometimes adverse weather conditions the put 100% in at all times.
When they finished one task they simply found another thing that needed doing and got to it.

Steve and Heger were at the lodge for 3 weeks. They transformed the entrance and the garden, and were also talented and helpful around guests and in the kitchen. We were particularly impressed with their work ethic. At times I had to stop them because they working too much!

Outstanding work in the vineyard, in the kitchen and behind the computer.
Thank you Declan and good luck in the future.
Alexa's strength is definitely on computers and she was a great help to our business on that front.
Charlie is an extremely talented photographer, though don't expect him to tell you as he is very modest! While he wasn't taking professional quality pictures for the lodge, he was very helpful in the garden and… read more
For us it was our first volunteer experience. At first we were a little
irritated that the volunteers are less integrated into the family, as we
had expected. Overall, however, it was a very friendly atmosphere.
After we have passed to a task list, we were able to… read more
Good luck in the future!
Will & Carolina
Also we really enjoyed their company and hope to meet again sometime. We wish you the best of success and good luck in Brazil!

Wonderful company, great attitude and very skilled at all the tasks they were set.
In fact we invited them back, but sadly they can't come. I recommend them to anyone looking for great people with a great work ethic.
Our working day started after breakfast at 9 am at the vineyard. We have fixed and shorted the vine plants for four hours. It was quite hard work, but we enjoyed it because we learnt a lot about wine. After this shift… read more
