About this house sitting position in Tregaron
We live in a very rural and remote area of the Cambrian mountains 4 miles outside of Tregaron on a single track road surrounded by fields and woodland with the nearest neighbour several miles away. This is the perfect location for the enjoyment of nature, forest and hill walking, off-road cycling, and wild swimming in the nearby lake. The property is bisected by a pretty stream and is very peaceful.
Accommodation is not within the main house but in the adjacent building known as the Outdoor Centre which is a purpose built timber structure available to house 16 x people with 4 x bathrooms, kitchen and garden. The Centre has recently been fully renovated to a high standard but is not used for its intended purpose and so will be for the exclusive use of the pet sitter(s).
The pet care is to let 5 geese (2 adults and 3 goslings) out of their house each morning and secure them again at night time. They will require feeding in the morning and once more during the day. Apart from that they are self-sufficient and do not require any other maintenance other than a daily clean and refresh of bedding if required and clearing goose poo outside if it becomes a problem. In the unlikely event they fly out of the garden (1.5 acre) they will need rescuing, which they are quite happy to be, but requires someone with experience of handling geese, and this can be taught by us if required.
Some rockery, and outside window and pot plants will require daily watering but a hose is available for most of this.
Rubbish is put out once per week. Read more...
