Aide
To enjoy being here you need to like:
- children & animals
- other people & time alone
The help here is varied and can be anything from mowing the grass to pointing the house, along side the care to our adorable, very patient animals.
Animals include:
- 4 equines (3 middle-aged ponies, 1young horse )
- 2 cats
- 4 dogs
- 2 rabbits
- 1 parrot
- 1 chickens
- 4 tortoise
We can be away at times and would need helpers to be happy house-sitting also.
In general helpers help about 20 hours a week, but in a very flexible way,
Langues parlées
Anglais: Courant

Hébergement
Rural France, the Dordogne.
We do not expect people to share a bedroom unless they arrive as such (couples or friends), we also have a caravan for those which wish to have a more private stay.
We provide all the food ( 3 meals a day) but do expect help with prep/ cooking of the lunch and evening meal.
Autres infos...
Local activities & sights range from walking, hiking, cycling, canoeing and swimming to prehistoric caves and medieval chateaux, there is a train station 6 miles away which we pass twice a day mid week or you are more than welcome to cycle there.
We are a happy household, interests are varied with learning going both ways, whether that is a new mechanical skill or a song from your native country all are welcomed.
We do expect helpers to be happy and open people who leave the home as they found it and engage fully in the experience.
Lastly, non-smokers preferred (horses, hay, straw, children...).
This is very rural, if you enjoy the party lifestyle this is not the place for you.
