Hours

25+ hours a week

More than 2,000 native species have been replanted on this land, and the retreat propagates plants for a local koala sanctuary. Guests stay in six architect-designed chalets and a main residence for groups.

There's no duty list yet. The experience they ask for covers booking management and front office, guest liaison, housekeeping and hygiene, and stock.

Some chalets are reached by short, hilly bush walks, and two of them (Hideaway and Hidden Valley) get no phone reception, though Starlink reaches them.

It pays A$33 an hour for 25 or more hours a week. For the right person, living on site in a workers cottage can be arranged, with gas, electricity and internet included.
