Description
Denis and I moved to the south of France 10 years ago ago. We started off with a bed and breakfast and had some great workawayers to help us get the house into shape.
We have now moved to a small village close by and are looking for help in the garden, a bit of painting and some maintenance. Mostly someone strong as we are a couple of weaklings
The village is small with very few facilities, for this reason we would prefer a couple or two friends and your own transport would be a huge benefit to enable you to see the fabulous area we live in.
We have good accommodation and will feed you well.Types of help and learning opportunities

Help
We need help with building projects around the house. Some joinery would be fantastic but it is mostly general help.
In return we have excellent accommodation and Denis is a great cook.Languages

They were very easy to have around and used their initiative to do extra work without being asked. We were very pleased with the work they did.
The house is spacious and comfortable, and we were always fed very well. Denis is a great cook (he cooked for the Queen!) and we felt very welcome and comfortable in their home.
