    If you are looking for a great time while on holiday then contact us about our work away experience. We run a 30 bed backpacker on the border of the Addo Elephant National Park. We prefer volunteers to stay at least a month and longer. We are looking for folk to help out in our backpackers. Part of your duties will include a reception work, interacting with guests, little cooking and bar work in the evenings.
    Helping us with a bit of building, plumbing, woodwork etc.
    Day duties is reception work, answering emails, checking housekeeping.

    Always looking for someone with artistic flair.

    We are in the process of setting up and starting a veggie garden here and would love help in that process as well.

    Please note.
    A lot of folks seem to think we are an elephant park and want to volunteer and work with the animals. We are not and we do not have any elephants.
