We live in a rural area 30 mins south of Whangarei, in quiet surroundings, close to some of Northland's loveliest beaches (even in winter!) We are looking for someone responsible and careful to take care of our house, grounds, farm dog, cats and hens whilst we are on holiday in Europe. Our local village (5 mins drive) provides all the basic services including Post Office, supermarket, hardware, pharmacy, butcher, garage and library, plus gift shops and a local museum. There are many well-known tourist attractions within an hour's driving radius. Please note - as there are water troughs and working electric fences on the farm, this situation is not suitable for young children. No pets please.
