We are an active Dutch couple, living in southwest France. We work partly as translator and gardener, and we have a house on a very quiet and beautiful location near the Lot Valley. There is a biological garden, an orchard and a lot of wildlife in the surrounding natural woodland.

This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
You can taste some Dutch and French culture and learn the languages we speak, and of course about all the activities you will do...
We are looking for people who can help us with gardening, maintenance, wood construction, wood chopping, painting and sometimes some help in the house. Certain skills would be very welcome... Especially in painting because we have some delicate painting to do, e.g. the small square windows you see on the main picture of our house. In spring and summer there will be painting to do and work in the garden, like weeding and harvesting and conservation of vegetables and fruit. Work with concrete and natural stones and other general maintenance.

A room of your own in the guesthouse or in the main house. We serve breakfast with our home made bread and cook vegetarian, mostly with vegetables from our garden.
The Lot Valley offers many activities in spring, summer and fall in the actractive villages. There are numerous hiking and cycling trails in the beautiful landscape and the river is just 3 km from the house.
