We need a caring person/couple to look after our small farm located 15 mins from Bendigo. Situated next to the Wellsford State Forest (with great walking trails), our 20 acre property is a little slice of country just a short drive to a regional centre with a great arts/theatre culture, historical buildings and attractions, and lots of fantastic restaurants.
If you love dogs, this is the place to be! We have three dogs (German Sheppard X (7yrs), Border Collie X (18mths) and Kelpie X (3yrs)). All three are very friendly and well mannered, however the youngest is very energetic and boisterous but lots of fun. They will need feeding twice a day, and played with or taken for a run in the paddocks daily. They are outside dogs with their own kennels in a yard where they sleep at night.
We also have two lovely Clydesdale horses who enjoy a carrot or three (and will be cared for by friends whilst we are away).
Our house is a three-bedroom weatherboard home with evaporative cooling. The houseyard has many fruit trees, big shade trees and a great vegie patch. There may be a bit of watering required , depending on the weather, but nothing too involved.
If this sounds like somewhere you'd like to spend Christmas and New Year, please drop us a line!
