    Description

    We have a sweet cottage available in exchange for pet/plant sitting coming up, a perfect writer's retreat opportunity in the mountains of British Columbia.

    Would you be interested in staying in our cozy cottage for a month+, with just a couple chores (~45 min daily) as an exchange?

    Where: Slocan Valley, BC

    Opportunity: perfect place to write a book, retreat, wander the beautiful land which has river access, enjoy views and quiet, lots of privacy, lie on the ground and do nothing…

    Exchange: feed our two horses twice a day (take 10 min. each time), and keep our two friendly dogs company (all they need is food/water, the occasional cuddle, and will accompany you on walks), water deck flowers every 3rd day, and houseplants 1-2x the entire stay.

    So, it’s the perfect scenario to have lots of time to yourself while having to go outside and move once in a while 😊

    Please be in touch if this speaks to you, and/or pass it on to a good friend!

    With gratitude
    Miriam & family

    The cottage is on a gorgeous land with trails and river access, splendid views and lots of peace and quiet. It is in a rural valley, with a bike trail running through it. Lots of places to hike, swim, explore nature. 45-minute drive from one of the cutest towns in BC (Nelson), artsy, cafes, farmers markets etc. 10 km either direction from villages with small grocery stores.
