- Cutting trees down
- refencing sheep field
Indoor jobs:
- preparing and painting windows/shutters/doors/furniture/gates
- April - sorting books and setting up for one of our annual Charity Book Fairs
The house is quite rural, about 4.5km from two towns. There are bikes available to use.
Very large lake nearby - Lac de Vassiviere.
Internet access is good and unlimited.
The accommodation is a fully equipped, comfortable apartment attached to the house, suitable for 1 person or a couple.

We live in small, friendly hamlet and have both English and French friends. We play boules regularly, in the village, with our French and English neighbours. We enjoy board games and I enjoy various crafts.
Lots of outdoor work: gardening; landscaping; maintenance; clearing; digging; etc. etc.
Englisch: Fließend
Französisch: Gute Kenntnisse
Deutsch: Grundkenntnisse
Double apartment. Comfortable and fully equipped. Also bedrooms in main house.
We will provide 3 meals a day and accommodation in return
Accommodation is of a very good standard. We have unlimited wifi, however reception can be variable in very bad weather and has to be disconnected if it's stormy.
We are British but do mix with our French neighbours in the area so there will be some opportunities for improving your French.
Please feel free to ask any questions with no obligation.
I'm not very good at the selling of this but your help would be appreciated and you would get a real idea of living in rural France.
Thanks for taking the time to read this listing.
