Short Property Description
We live in an original farmhouse in the hills behind Apollo Bay, overlooking the southern ocean and the Great Ocean Rd, and close to NPs. We try to live a self-sufficient lifestyle, growing as much of our own food as we can, recycling and repairing rather than consuming. Rusty is a master at fixing things and Deb is an English teacher and can help with language learning. We have a large orchard and vegetable garden, plus a large ornamental garden which meanders through the rainforest. Wallabies, glow worms, koalas, king parrots and other wildlife surround us. Work includes making & maintaining garden beds & tending the orchard, pruning, weeding, mulching, planting & seed propagation. We’re fixing the house, so carpentry & painting is also possible. We love to eat good food, enjoy a glass of wine & hear travel stories. We have travelled extensively, and love hosting other travellers, so do come for a visit. Accom for up to 4 in our home, with own room & bathroom. Mixed diet, shared with the family. NSI.
