Area: Languedoc region

We are Sundara and David, a retired but still very active Scottish couple. Our only home is a large mansionhouse ('maison de maître') overlooking the Canal du Midi in the Languedoc region. It is used for various purposes including B&B, and occasional voice workshops and recitals. We have a large Mediterranean garden and a 12.5 m pool.

Area: Wagga wagga

We own a large scale working wheat, sheep and cattle property. Where guests are invited to observe or participate in helping with farm chores or simply to enjoy the tranquil environment of this pretty secluded pocket of Australia. Every morning children and adults alike can help with the farm round, feeding the ducks, chooks, pigs, pet lambs and milk the goat etc. Revive yourself with a scrumptious morning tea before embarking upon a walking pony or horse ride around the farmyard or an invigorating canter out in the wild, open fields

Area: Arcevia

In the middle of Italy in a Natural park you will find our typical countryhouse. The next little village is about 6 km. We have been living here since 1995 and we create workshops with the intention to exchange creative workings and ideas involving ceramics, paperclay, painting, Raku and more.

Area: Coromandel Peninsula

We own a comfortable farmstay set on six acres of peaceful pasture a few minutes drive from Coromandel township. The Coromandel Peninsula is renowned for its scenic coastal route, magnificent beaches, bush walks, art trails and historic gold-mining sites.

Area: Gütersloh

We are running a dog school in the area of Guetersloh since several years, that means we give courses in educating dogs - or better in educating dog owners. On several times a week we offer our courses and people make single appointments, too. Also we visit people at home, if they have special problems with their dogs. Four times a week we offer so called play groups in the afternoon, where people come with their dogs to let them play. At the end of 2008 we bought a house with 10.000 qm land and a little lake on it. We are running the dog school there now and we also build up a dog hotel. Up to 10 dogs can stay with us. They stay in the group altogether during the day, only at night they stay in kennels. Therefore we only take dogs that are getting along with other dogs. Even though our business is running already, we are not finished in renovating our house and fixing the garden. There are still fences to be put up, rooms to paint ecetera. We also need help in caring for the dogs. Especially when we are busy with courses or playgroups, somebody needs to look after our hotel dogs. It would be perfect if you were able to handle a group of dogs. We are a Lesbian couple, 43 and 44 years old, Ilona & Linda. We have a 17 years old daughter staying with us. We have three dogs on our own, a white canadian shepherd, a Great Dane and a small Terrier Mix from Greece. Also we have 4 cats. At least one of them will try to sleep in your bed.
