Descrição
Hi everyone, we are a family of 8 and two dogs we run a non-for-profit horse Sanctuary we currently have 9 horses. We live on a beautiful 25 acre property surrounded by rainforest and waterfalls and crocodile free creeks to swim in. Just down the road we have the iconic historical Lion's Den Hotel we are also a 20-minute drive away from the historical Cooktown. There are many wonderful things to do in Cooktown and the surrounding areas, beaches, walks and you can get to the reef and islands. The world-famous Daintree Rainforest is only just down the Bloomfield Track, and Cairns is 4 hours away. We have limited wifi and no mobile reception but there is a landline that you are more than welcome to use.Both my husband and I have traveled and I am from the UK. Our children are ranging from 16 to 6 years and are all girls, I homeschool one daughter and part-time homeschool another due to her autism. Our horses are all different breeds with many different physical and mental problems all in rehab. We also do therapeutic horse riding with our rehabilitated horses.

We are looking for people that are interested in cooking, a little bit of childcare housework fencing general maintenance and know about horses and how to work with them. Obviously you don't need to do all of those things if you're only interested in cooking and cleaning or childcare that's fine. Or if you prefer the outdoor work that's also fine one or the other is perfect that's why two people would be great because it is a lot of work for just one or you can do a little bit of something different each day we don't mind we'll work it out.
