Volunteer on a farm in Sussex, England – requirements and tasks

We live on the farm but we also have Airbnb units and need assistance with housekeeping for these spaces as well as building, fixing, carpentry, and maintaining the house and gardens. There is always plenty to do!

We need help with some physical tasks as well as childcare, housekeeping. There is always help needed around the garden and house with painting, cleaning and looking after the animals.

For example currently we are doing lots of gardening (and watering!), cutting steps into a bank leading under a platform, painting the outside of some barns, and Shepherds Hut, converting a boat into a bedroom and tidying our storage area ready for summer.

We would love to welcome a couple.

Volunteer on a farm in Sussex, England – what we offer

You stay in a gorgeous guest house and enjoy a weekly food allowance of £50 per week per couple. You will be surrounded by rolling fields and a picturesque lake which is a home to lots of birds and wildlife (including peacocks!) and you’ll feel as though you’re in the middle of the countryside, yet in 15 minutes walk you are in the village of Henfield with shops, cafes and pubs.

We are also open to a long-term paid stay over the summer.
