We need a live-in housekeeper for our beautiful property on Bronte Road East
Accommodation is in a cozy and comfortable independent cottage with its own kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and laundry.
The Cottage is offered rent-free in exchange for 18 hours work per week. Electricity, gas and unlimited fast internet are included.
