Our clients are a couple who have recently returned to the UK from Switzerland and are seeking an experienced Housekeeper, Gardener and Handyman (M/F) couple.

Their home is a stunning 6-bedroom recently renovated Georgian manor house situated in 7.5 acres of beautiful gardens in a quiet hamlet, close to Chepstow.

The gardens comprise of mostly lawn, with trees including redwoods and beech. There is a large bedding area at the front of the house with roses and other perennials planned.

The principals enjoy cooking themselves but will need very occasional help with preparation for dinner parties or for friends staying overnight.

Housekeeper duties include general cleaning, all laundry, silver polishing, mopping marble floors. The Gardener/Handyman (m/f) duties include trimming hedges, cutting grass, planting and weeding. During the winter when there is less gardening, some light handywork such as gutter cleaning may be required.

The couple must be well-presented, professional and trustworthy, with meticulous attention to detail.

Working Hours: Monday-Friday, 9-5pm, with the very occasional dinner party help at a weekend and time off will be given in lieu.

Accommodation: A well-appointed, spacious three-bedroom cottage with own entrance and own terrace. The cottage has a fully equipped kitchen, sitting room and dining room.

Owing to the location, a driving licence and own car are required with the occasional driving the owners to and from the airport.

Sorry no pets allowed.

A competitive salary including pension are on offer.

Recent checkable references, and a valid DBS are required. (AGY).
