The experience

Need help getting my rural Hawke’s Bay retreat ready for sale. It’s a peaceful spot with lovely views, private downstairs area. Tasks: mainly gardening (weather permitting), general upkeep and household chores. You’ll have a comfy private room, with shared kitchen/living room, flexible hours, plenty of good times: BBQs, bonfires, stargazing, and exploring the area. If you enjoy outdoors, hands-on work and good company, I’d love to hear from you.
