Detalhes
Descrição
We are a couple living in one of the most beautiful places of Germany, the Eifel. We share our little farm with two cats and five horses, one of them a senior, two adults and two youngsters.
Farm and horses are solely private use, no business nor riding facility.
We are looking for someone to help us with all the work around the animals, including stablework, education of the young horses, excercising the old ones and playing and cuddling the cats. We also need help around the house and garden.
Our farm is located in the literal "middle of nowhere". The village consists of two farmhouses, the next villages, not very much bigger, are about two km away through the forest. So living here is very relaxing, but never boring.
For our and your own safety, we can only accept guests who are fully vaccinated against Covid.Tipos de ajuda e oportunidades de aprendizado

Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado
You will learn a lot about horses, and experience to live with horses as friends and partners, not as tools for sports.
If you want to improve your German, it will be helpful that I used to work as a teacher for German as a foreign language.
I work as a hoofcare practitioner and I have learned some saddle fitting. If you are interested in learning about it, I can teach you everything you want to know.Ajuda
Daily feeding of the horses, cleaning stable and paddock, fence building and repairing. Help with housekeeping and cleaning.
We grow our own vegetables for private use, so we need help for gardening, lawn mowing, cutting hedges etc. Also picking fruits and cooking jam.
The firewood for the winter has to be sawed and chopped (by help of machines of course).
Like every old house, our house is always under construction, so there are still rooms to be papered and painted, wooden floor to be laid etc.
Of course you will not have to do all of these things, it is all dependend on your skills and interest.
Our adult horses are mostly retired and the young ones are in a difficult phase. We don't have a horse for unexperienced riders at the moment so we cannot promise you an opportunity to ride.
If you are a very experienced rider with a soft hand maybe you can help us educating the young horses. Experience in Natural Horsemanship, groundwork and dressage would be great.Idiomas

You will have your own room in the first floor, and as long as there are no other guests in the house, you will have a bathroom for your own.
We do cooking and housework together and have all meals together, if possible.Algo mais...
The region Eifel offers a lot of opportunities for outdoor sports like hiking, cycling, trail riding. The landscape is quite montainous and full of varieties: forest, heath, moors, volcanic lakes etc.
Especially our district has got a very low density of population, that's why people call it "Little Canada".
The next town (Ahrbrück) with supermarkets and a train station is 10 km away. From there you can reach the bigger cities Bonn and Cologne.
Update 2021: due to the Ahr flood there is no train between Ahrbrück and Bonn anymore. Closest train stations are Ahrweiler, Bonn or Koblenz.
We cook and bake gluten free and eat mostly vegetarian.Mais alguns detalhes

Going into the experience I was pretty anxious/ overwhelmed, considering it was my first WorkAway stay.
Nevertheless, it still didn’t take long for me to feel comfortable and welcomed living on their farm. I got the chance to learn a lot about animals and especially hoofcare which was completely new to me… read more
Melina spent 3 weeks at our place and helped with gardening, horsecare, training of the horses, painting fences, housekeeping, and everything else you can think of (like the saarländisch way of cooking with lots of… read more
Once instructed, Esmeé took the responsability for the horses completely by herself, I never had to ask twice, I could easily rely on her and was free to concentrate on other tasks.
She also showed that she is a very good and gentle rider and did a very good job riding one of the… read more

They work incredibly hard, thoroughly and quickly. Within one day they finished the work that we had planned for the whole week.

We hope to see you again one day, here or there!
I had a truly lovely time staying with Anke and Stefan! The animals here are all extremely respected and well cared for, and during my time here I was able to learn lots of new horse training and care techniques. Although the farmhouse is rather isolated, this shouldn’t bother any nature lover because it’s in the most… read more
Anything she does, she does with fun, she can really brighten up your day.
People say, our horses look all the same. Zannah could distinguish them right from the start, because she looked them in the eyes and in their hearts. The affection was defititely from both sides.

Vielen dank fur meine Erfahrung !!! I had a great stay with Anke and Stephan, they have a beautiful home which I feel very lucky to have shared for the 20 days I spent with them.

The fences and gates are painted, the horse trailer looks like new and the firewood for the winter is split and stacked. We owe this to the hard-working workawayers who visited us this summer. One of them was Eneko, who had a big part in it.
