Now this sounds like a great job to me. Located in what I regard as one of the most stunning parts of the UK aswell.

It`s a shame I`m not qualified, is it possible to do a home study HND in Countryside Management ?

It looks like we're looking in the same place Shewie..( I phoned after that one this morning to see if they had a position with accommodation - they don't :( Like you I have no qualifications, and my age may be agin me but I've sent off a couple of applications and highlighted by positives as well as acknowledging my 'gaps'. Nothing so far so I reckon I'll head down the volunteer route with a day a week at college towards NVQ2.

If you are in the same boat I wish you well :)
