Forest, Tasmania

About this house sitting position in Forest

We live in Northwest Tasmania on a 60 acre hobby farm located 20 kilometres south of Stanley. We are looking for a couple or someone to live in our home for approximately 8 weeks from the beginning of July until early September 2026.
Our warm, comfortable small home has a wood heater for heating and back up hot water. Otherwise hot water is solar and the stove is gas. There is a plentiful supply of wood on hand.
We are looking for people who have experience with farm animals because the position entails moving quiet beef cattle and feeding out hay several times a week, checking electric fences and stock water. We also have a small flock of sheep, a pet dog and chooks. We would like to do an exchange with the right people, our home at no charge with eggs and some farm produce in exchange for approximately 1 hour every second day feeding or moving the cattle.
There are beaches, cafe's and supermarket within 15 minutes at either Smithton or Stanley. Burnie is 1 hour away.
More information is available on request.
