Family with an old farmhouse near LeMans in a rural location in France

Beschreibung

We are an English family who own an old farm house and barn near LeMans in a rural location. We need general assistance around the place, for example gardening, painting, building and plastering. We are also going to develop a barn into a gite.
We have plenty of room and lots of land and the wild life is a real feature. It's a nice, fairly remote, area with castles and villages that make it a good holiday retreat. Night life is located in Laval 30mins away.
We have a swimming pool and would make you one of the family during your stay. Please note we have 4 dogs.
