We live on the North West Coast of Tasmania, close to Cradle Mountain and the Tarkine. Our house has wonderful views of Bass Strait and is very sunny and warm. We have a cat and dog (Border Collie Cross) who would need looking after. It will be the lawn growing season in Tasmania, so some care of the garden would be great. October is a wonderful month here, all the spring tulips, blossoms will be in full bloom. Our town is the Tasmanian terminal for the Spirit of Tasmania. It has all the facilities you would need.
