About this house sitting position in Exeter
Welcome to our spacious, rural home in the Southern Highlands, set in a large, rambling garden, on 5 acres surrounded by open farmland, in rolling green hills. There are two beloved, well trained border collie dogs, a house cat, and chickens (so fresh eggs every day!).
To housesit here you need to be of average fitness, as the dogs need a good 30-40 minutes walk every day. There are are extensive bush walks close by and further afield (maps provided).
Two of the Southern Highland's prettiest villages, Exeter and Bundanoon, are only 7 minutes away with great coffee shops and markets, and regular supermarkets are only 20 minutes away in Moss Vale.
The only duties for the house sitters apart from walking the dogs is feeding them and the resident cat, and 14 chickens. And hopefully giving them all the love they are used to! The chickens free range each afternoon, and must be locked up at night (this is super imporatant as there are always foxes lurking).
We are on rain (tank) water only, and the fire wood is all coming from trees felled on the farm, so we live sustainably, which means using resources thoughtfully. If you are after extravagant hotel luxury with little to do, this probably isn't the place for you. But if you are happy with thoughtful and economical use of resources and enjoy animals and nature you will be very comfortable.
Please note that you will need to bring your own wifi - Optus is ok, and Telstra better. To use my computer, I hotspot off my mobile phone, and it works very well.
Housesitters are welcome to the fresh eggs laid daily, and organic pickings from the large veggie garden. This is a quiet, idyllic spot with lots of room. Welcome! Read more...
