Help care for animals and land on a scenic Scottish retreat
The experience
Please see www.callanishalpacas.co.uk for info on what we do. You’ll be living in a fully equipped caravan on site with washing/drying facilities in the house. We’d like help looking after our 180+ animals, interacting with our many visitors and some work on the 12 acres of land please. Any questions please message me on 07759 534455 via WhatsApp. Thanks! Clare
