TLDR - Spent a good week with Natalie and Damo who are both lovely, would recommend to others. About 20 mins outside of Bundaberg on a rural plot of land. They have a lovely family, a dog and other animals. Most time during the weekdays I was home alone and given free rein over my hours, and you are trusted to do the hours on my own schedule. I had my own room with a nice double bed, and got taken to the beach and also into town on my day off - rum distillery was worth a visit! Thanks Natalie, Damo, Holly, Banjo (and Sid) !
