Hi, we are Mel & Pete.
Would you like a comfortable bedroom in the main house, occasional coffee and breakfast at the beach, see kangaroos and native Australian birds, while helping on the farm?
Join us on the mid north coast of NSW where we look after 2 beautiful properties with many trees, cows and some horses.
We live 15 minutes drive from the beach and at times we stay 30 minutes away on the other property in the countryside.
We prefer a 10 day minimum stay.

We love to share our country NSW lifestyle:
Sunrise coffee and breakfast at the beach
Relax in the hot tub
Yoga
Learn animal husbandry
Learn basic farm duties
Experience native wildlife including kangaroos, kookaburras, Rosellas and cockatoos.
We enjoy sitting around the dinner table to talk about what is going on here in Australia as well as discussing many things from around the world. We believe we can all learn from each other.
We provide food and accommodation in exchange for help.
Our past helpers have also had time for a surf lesson at the local beach, visit the koala hospital, and enjoy the coastal walks.
