Description
I am Ali, mum and self-employed running a small land-use / environmental consultancy, living in a remote but stunning location miles up a Highland glen with partner Donnie who is a head stalker/keeper/wildlife ranger for a local estate. Location is beautiful and remote, deep in the hills with plenty of fresh air and amazing scenery with villages of Kingussie (10 miles), Newtonmore (13 miles) and Aviemore (19 miles) nearby.
Both boys are at school or nursery through week days. I am looking for casual help around the house and garden, support on work projects (if computer literate) and occasionally entertaining boys if I need the odd hour of work at weekends.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
Visitors will be made most welcome and can learn and experience life in one of the most stunning and remote estates in the Cairngorms, once a traditional sporting estate now focuses on wildlife and habitat management, as well as be able to learn of environmental / ecological projects undertaken by Ali if interested and come along on farm or woodland visits. Excellent outdoor opportunities (walking, hiking, biking, etc) throughout the Cairngorm area or from the doorstep and social activity in Aviemore.

Aide
I am seeking someone who would be able to give me time to focus on my home and field-based work, by giving general help around the house/garden and (where needed) entertaining the children after school for an hour or very occasionally weekends. Board and lodgings given and runs to village (own car would also be helpful due to our remote location but definitely not essential).
Can have have time to walk, roam and see the local area. Lots of bits and bobs to do in the garden to amuse but also not essential.

This place is a writers dream. You follow the road running parallel to the river for eight miles to the lodge, with mountains either side. Perfect for star gazing.

It's been an amazing two weeks with a lovely family. From the beginning Ali and his family made me feel at home. From Monday to Friday, my task was to help Ali with little Maghnus (he is lovely) in the mornings, either being at home or going to where she had to do her work.
Maghnus is a love with a lot of energy and it has been a… read more
