  Description

  Hello,
  
  Myself and fiance Jason both British, have bought a house in the south of France. We have a 2 year old daughter, two dogs and a cat.
  
  We are looking for someone that won't mind sleeping in our camper van. It has electric, hot water, fast internet, a fridge and a comfortable mattress.
  
  The campervan isn't quite big enough for two people but does have a double bed so we would be happy for a couple to stay as well.
  
  I'm looking for someone who could babysit so I am able to continue working. I am mostly busy July through to September so if someone could come during that time that would be fantastic. The winter months I focus on the garden and assisting Jason with jobs he needs doing around the house.
  
  Last year I had three workaways over the summer period and it was great and they've all said they would return so we like to think we are doing something right and making new friends.
  
  In terms of food Jason is a great cook and we are happy to make vegetarian and vegan food if necessary !
  
  We live in a very pretty region in France surrounded by vineyards.
  
  Lots of Villages to visit in your downtime that are full of history Minerve is beautiful, there are some great places for swimming Bize Minervois & Mirepeisset. Puicheric has canoeing available. There is a grotte to visit in Capresbrine. Plenty of wine tours, wine tasting & wine walks. Local events are regular. The beach is 40minutes away lots of cool beach clubs to visit for the day! Restaurants are all great especially value for money if you go for the menu of the day at lunchtime. My village has a lake within walking distance and the canal du midi. I can organise horse riding, reiki & beauty treatments for your downtime.
  
  Thanks for reading so far, please feel free to ask any questions?
  
  Lizzie & Jason
