I really enjoyed my time at the reserve. The work was tough but very rewarding, and I've come away with a whole heap of forest-conservation knowledge, and a camera roll full of different animals and plants. Alan and Helen were perfect hosts, and very accommodating.

I had a wonderful time staying with Alan and Helen. They are cery welcoming and hospitable. While staying with Alan and Helen, i learned many things about bush regeneration and about local bird species as well. They provided me with good facilities and wonderful vegetarian meals for dinner. I was provided with all necessary meals like breakfast and lunch and well. There is plenty of nature and beaches to explore during your stay at Red Head. You will also be taken up to their reserve property at Killabakh where you will have a great experience exploring the forest and helping them remove weeds
