Other opportunities

Voluntary internship – work experience with accommodation

We offer internships of between 4 months and 1 year and find that this suits most people living and working on the farm, park or with the visitors. The park is an extremely diverse enterprise and we can tailor each internship to suit your talents or interests from animal husbandry, camping, visitor attraction through to marketing and business analytics or even a combination of areas.

 

We provide shared accommodation (with paid utility bills) in one of our 2 bungalows, uniform, free range eggs and expenses of £50.00 per week. In return we ask that volunteers work at least 5 days and week with hours ranging from 8.30 to 5pm in the winter and 8.30 up to dusk in the summer and are willing to be flexible to help out where the business needs help. It can be physically demanding, is outside for most if not all of the time depending on your role and is great fun. You will learn a lot about yourself as well as new skills for future.
