    We renovate our 13th/18th century's old château with 10 hectares of land
    Participate in these activities and learn traditional crafts like blacksmithing, stone masonry
    Minimum stay; 21 days

    We answer to ALL of your requests within a few HOURS max!
    You'll get a positive or negative answer almost mediately
    Every request is inducting people work in order to read, analyse your profile, discuss with our team , checking the planning etc
    So please don't waste our time by just asking, checking the feasibility, or asking more than one host every time, behind the internet or your screen there are real people with limited time.
    When we get a request, spend time analyzing it, and finally answer positively, we don't appreciate at all to get a no! just because you've checked more options in the same time.
    By wasting our time, you are ruining this amazing system
