Beschreibung
We have been fortunate to spend the last few long summers at our beautiful, old manor house in South West France and have hosted some fabulous Workaways during that time.
We have experience of Workaways who have both worked with us and those who have acted as 'housesitters' and taken great care of the house during our time back in the UK. Many of these Workaways keep in touch & some have already planned return visits. We love sharing stories with our visitors over dinner in the evenings or whilst weeding, cleaning or painting together.
This year, we are looking for mature single women or workaway couples who can work with us on house & garden maintenance. Experience of pool maintenance and gardening would be an advantage.
We love the Chalosse countryside in Les Landes. The locals are friendly, the weather is mild and we are just an hour away from beautiful beaches and a couple of hours away from the Pyrenees. -

The locality itself and the friendly locals will enable opportunities for those wishing to improve their French. We both speak some french and would love to introduce beginners to the language.
We have lots of local knowledge to share with our Workaways. -

We have a gardener who comes once a month but there are always gardening duties to do. When we are there, we love working together with our workaway volunteers and exchanging stories and ideas. -

Was noch ...
The village location is quiet and peaceful.
There are lovely walks and places to visit both towards the coast (from Capbreton to Biarritz & St Jean de Luz) towards the pretty Pyrenees.
The local market in Dax (25 min drive) is full of fabulous local produce and is a Saturday highlight. -

From the moment I met Kerry and then Martin, the experience started.
Made to feel completely at “home” from the very first moment until the day I left the home sparkling clean and tidy, I enjoyed working hard along side the incredible pair of hosts. We laughed and we drank wine and ate amazing food.

They put me at ease from the moment I arrived. Kerry and Martin are natural hosts: warm, kind, understanding, interested in you and interesting people themselves. It's a gift not many people possess.
