    Description

    Looking for a single, couple or 2 friends together, energetic, for all sorts of tasks in country life: Housework,gardening, feed chickens ,firewood, and general tidying up around the property. At the moment we are also looking specifically for people who can lift things as we are sorting several sheds, moving furniture around etc.. Our home is a heritage property and we want to preserve it well. Good English speakers, long term stayers preferred, we look for helpers year round.

    You will stay in your own independent cottage with free unlimited internet. We have great views of Mt Hutt and Alps. We are 45 mins from Christchurch and 25 to Mt Hutt skifields. Great tourist area area here with skiing, bush walks, rivers (the mighty Rakaia) lakes etc

    We have had workawayers from various parts of the world for many years now and we really enjoy meeting people. Our children have left home, we have grandchildren, one of us is a teacher of languages, the other a builder and we own a luxury lodge with also three houses for guests who want self-catering accommodation .

    We cannot take smokers. If you are squeamish or 'delicate' this is not the place for you, we are in the country, totally rural NZ high country.

    There is no public transport where we are, so having your own vehicle is essential if you want to go and explore the countryside and general tourist area we are in. It is New Zealand.
