Description
My wife and I have been building our home here in Roche le Peyroux, a small commune, in this beautiful area of France for a few years with the help of family and friends from Scotland. Now we are able to be here more often we are looking for someone who can help with the building of a house, someone perhaps with experience in woodworking, plastering or general building work.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Gardening
DIY and building projects
General Maintenance
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We have found our neighbours to be very friendly and willing to share in all the activities within our commune.
There are sporting and recreational activities all around us for example kayaking, fishing, hillwalking, swimming to name just a few.
We have fresh local produce available at markets held in the local towns and villages.
Experiencing life in rural France has been very rewarding for us and we would like to share this with others.
Help
We have nearly finished building our first house on our land and are seeking help with the construction of the second property. We hope that someone with woodworking, plastering or general building skills would like to come and enjoy the beautiful countryside, friendly neighbours and leisure activities which surround us.
