Description
My husband and I moved to France two ago, we have been working hard to make our home and gardens nice. We have renovated a gite, re-done our kitchen, decorated bedrooms, completed a new bathroom project and the biggest of all is built a swimming pool. We are now looking to make the place look attractive, so gardening, decorating, outdoor lighting, etc is really what we need help with.
We have adopted some chickens, a dog and 2 miniture shetland ponies in our time here and are loving it.
We are close to the market towns of Auch, Mirande and Trie sur Baise. the nearest airports are Lourdes or Toulouse and we are about an hour ish away from the midi pyrenee's for the keen skiers!
We have a double room with private en suite for the right person/couple
