Description
We moved to St Michel in Gers Dec 2020, the house we bought had been empty for over 4 years , the fields and woodland is very overgrown, we moved here for lots of land for our horses which we breed and a quiet rural way life. If you are comfortable using farm machinery and motorised gardening tools that would be a bonus. Also if you have any mechanical knowledge, there are always viechles and tools that need a service. First availability September 2024. We would prefer couples as we can leave you to your work autonomously and we can get on with the running of the farm and our businesses.
