We stayed with this lovely family, Susan, Jerome, Pia and Ludo, Fergus the dog, Sam the cat and the chickens initially as volunteers and then as house sitters when they went away for a break on the main island.
We helped in their garden with weeding, pruning and clearing plants ready for a wood store that Ged built. We power washed the decking around the cabin that we were staying in and carried out repairs on the decking around the main house and made good a wall and ceiling in the kitchen with filler and some paint. We really had a great time with the family - each night we enjoyed their company and we were transported to a different country with the fantastic meals Susan cooked.
Fergus loved to be near you all the time, he was so affectionate and we just loved taking him to the beach.
Sam the cat made sure we woke up each morning to give him his breakfast by first tapping his water bowl, if that did not work he would start knocking things off the bedside cabinet. He is quite a character .
Pia and Ludo liked to spend the time with us in the garden, Pia with your chickens and Ludo giving us a helping hand, waddling around in his dads gum boots!
