Detalhes
Descrição
Couples preferred,
A week to 14 days would be about right for us.
Ditch clearing, pruning and general all round garden clearing. Depending on weather possibly painting garden walls.
Many other projects may be attempted depending on skills of helpers.
(we work up to five hours per day and will discuss before you agree what is acceptable for both parties.
Accommodation provided in log cabin (click on our website link for more details about the log cabin), one double and one twin room .Area available for camper-vans/ camping weather depending of course.
In return for approx 5 hours with rest of day to explore the local beaches or just relax.
All meals provided.
Free WiFi available in main house and cabin.
Own transport is ideal, but many helpers in the past have been just on foot using public transport ( public transport locally isn’t brilliant)
We are situated about in a rural setting 5/6 km from nearest town and there is no shop in our small village. No night life to speak of, but plenty of olive groves, Greek dogs barking, the Ionian sea is about 6 km away (60 km of unspoiled beach to explore and enjoy) and there is a mountain behind us, so plenty of walking areas to explore. We love to hear about travelers experiences and both have a good sense of humour. Life is about getting the most out of any situation and having some fun too.
We look forward to hearing from you.

We welcome helpers who are happy to work up to 5 hours a day (dep on number of days worked) (negotiable) we can discuss what suits us both. in return for accommodation and meals. usually Saturday s and Sundays free(or we check the forcast and arrange to suit us both if you want to do sightseeing) to explore & do your own thing. Internet available. We live approx 20 mins walk from local town (Kyparissia) and local beaches another 10 mins walk, 5 mins walk to local taverna in village. Very quiet location with lots of beautiful walks. The Ionian sea is our view and behind the house is a small mountain. The area is full of olive trees, so lots of local farmers. Its a quiet location with no night life..so if you are seeking clubs etc then this location is not for you.
