Videa is a bright sunny warm and respectful person. She is lovely to be around, works hard and listens well. She is good at folllowing instructions and a fast learner. Very self effacing and able to laugh at herself. She was especially kind with my pets .She is a joy to be around, I wish I'd had her company for longer

I love Zoe's energy and the house is truly a hippy paradise with lots of cute animals by your side like Harmione and Harvey the doggos, as well as Bruce and Bo the cattos.

Staying with Zoe was a life-changing experience. Not just the place and its magical, almost fantastic location, but the warm of Zoe's heart and her amazing ensemble of living companions: the most charming Harvey dog, the mystical bruce cat, and the family of ducks and chickens. All that together, with a mix of philosophical talks, music enjoyment,… read more

I was only with Zoe for a few days due to a planning mix up on my part, but she helped me out a lot anyway. The food is good and plentiful, the place is very scenic and you wouldn't think you were still in Auckland. The work can be hard but its good to be outdoors and seeing the fruits of your labours at the end of the day.
Cheers Zoe.
Cheers Zoe.

Thank you Zoe for a great stay! It was fun getting stuck in with all the outside work, cutting bamboo, strimming the field and feeding the chickens. I particularly enjoyed our hiking day in Waitakere, playing scrabble and cooking some nice food. Hope you and your dogs are doing well!
