    Description

    Welcome to our slice of paradise on the Mid-North Coast of New South Wales, Australia!

    We are three siblings — along with our partners and children — who share a stunning 45-acre property surrounded by mountain views, magical forested areas, and peaceful open spaces. Our land has multiple dwellings, a 20-horse stable, serene dams, a thriving food forest, veggie gardens, and a pool. It’s a truly idyllic setting, full of birdsong, clean air, and natural beauty.

    We also share the land with some much-loved animal companions. There are three friendly dogs who are very much part of the family, one independent but affectionate cat, and three beautiful horses, including a sassy little pony.

    We’re a creative, nature-loving family who enjoys working on the land, building community, and sharing the lifestyle we’ve created. There’s always something happening here — from tending to the gardens, improving the land, or working on projects around the stables and dwellings.

    Our property is also in a fantastic location — just 20 minutes from the vibrant and artistic town of Bellingen, 25 minutes from Coffs Harbour Airport, and only 15 minutes from the nearest beach.

    We’re able to host Workawayers from time to time, and we love the opportunity to meet new people, share stories, and exchange knowledge. Whether you’re keen on gardening, helping with general maintenance, working with horses, or just enjoying time in nature while lending a hand, we’d love to hear from you.

    We offer a peaceful, friendly, and welcoming environment — and a chance to be part of a little community in a beautiful corner of the world.

    Please note that we are a private residence and don’t grow food to sell.

    Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

    We love spending time in nature and often head out for bushwalks, canyoning /rick climbing adventures, surfing sessions, or chill arvos down by the river. We also enjoy relaxed social time, like catching up with friends at the local brewery or community events. Workawayers are welcome to join us for activities when it fits.
    We’re happy to share our knowledge of gardening, land care, animal handling, and sustainable living, and in return, we’re excited to learn from others, whether it’s new ideas, skills, stories, or perspectives from different cultures.

  • Aide

    Aide

    We’re a hands-on family with a wide range of ongoing projects across the property, and we love collaborating with people who are keen to contribute in a way that suits their strengths and passions.

    Some of the regular tasks include working in the veggie gardens, weed management, mowing and slashing with the tractor, and general property maintenance. At times we also have building projects, painting, decorating, and other creative or practical tasks. Depending on what’s happening when you visit, there could be opportunities to help with the horses, tidy up forested areas, assist with household projects, or bring a fresh perspective to something we haven’t even thought of yet. We’re open-minded and flexible — the most important thing is that you’re willing, respectful, and enjoy being part of a shared environment.

    Hébergement

    Workawayers will stay in a comfortable two-bedroom cottage that offers privacy, peace, and a relaxed atmosphere. The cottage features a wood fire heater for cosy nights, a full kitchen and bathroom, and a large undercover outdoor area with beautiful views across the mountains — the perfect spot to unwind and take in the scenery. There’s also a dining room and lounge room available to use. One of our sweet dogs, Dizzie, also lives in the cottage. The swimming pool is right next door, and you’re very welcome to use it during your stay.

    We will provide food for your stay, although you’re very welcome to cook and eat independently in the cottage using the full kitchen provided.

    You’re also welcome to join us in our homes to share meals, depending on what suits everyone. We enjoy creating a relaxed and flexible atmosphere around food, whether that means cooking together occasionally or giving you the space to do your own thing.
