About the role
We are seeking a reliable and detail-oriented cleaner to uphold a high standard of cleanliness and presentation across our two (soon to be three) short stay accommodation properties.
This is a casual position with consistent and regular hours each week, averaging approximately 25–30 hours. While you will primarily work independently, you will be part of a supporting, close-knit team that collectively manages the farm and accommodation operations.
Working hours must align with guest bookings, however work shifts are usually between Monday and Friday. Occasionally, you will be required to work on a Saturday or Sunday, however this is not frequent (i.e. 2-4 times per year).

About the properties
We currently operate two popular short-stay accommodation properties on site, with a third house currently being built. The properties are located a few minutes drive from one another.
The Farmhouse is a spacious 7-bedroom, 5-bathroom home that caters to large group bookings and events such as weddings, birthdays and family gatherings. It is typically booked out ~ 1 year in advance.
The Barn is a luxurious yet cosy 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom retreat, ideal for couples or small families, and is usually booked a few months in advance.
The Quarters is currently under construction, but will be a 5-bedroom entertainer's delight. It is expected to open for bookings in mid 2027.
