Descrição
Hello traveler,
we are in the middle of the season and if you love nature, animals and good company, then it might be your next place to stay. Take a look at our profile and if it sounds right for you, send us a message.
We offer payment for the hours worked and housing in our teepee village. We expect 3-5 hours of good work, depending on the program and courses that are running. We offer 7 € per hour.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Here is some general information about us ... we are a Natural HorseManShip Academy in the tradition of an American Ranch, in summer, we give courses and seminars about how to relate to horses in a natural way and host courses regarding conscious living and personal development.
We mainly need help with hospitality, keeping things clean and nice for our guests. If you don't mind dish washing and mopping floors, then this is a great opportunity to get out of the city and enjoy life in nature.
We do our best to produce our vegetables and we can always use a good hand in the garden. Handy Man's are always specially welcome.
Our season genereally run's between April and September. In the winter months we sometime could use some help on farm work and occasional proejcts.
We are located near the village of Pieve Santo Stefano in the Province of Arezzo, Tuscany, the place is also known as the Garden of St. Francis, with big oak trees and vast slopes and meadows.
What to expect ... being outside, being responsible at work and put in effort and positive attitude ... enjoy great company, pure nature, dogs, cats and horses, a relaxed atmosphere, transparency and honesty, a nice refreshing river to swim in close by and a perfect work-play balance.

We had the most amazing time at the ranch! Everyone made us feel so welcome and near the end we felt like we were a part of the family :) The work was straight-forward and the location was magical. We can’t imagine anything that would have made our stay in Tuscany any better, thank you for hosting us!
