    Description

    Hello,
    We are a couple of about sixty years old and we have a campsite in the Creuse (Limousin - Nouvelle Aquitaine).
    We have installed unusual accommodation "vintage American".
    We also have a bar/ restaurant and a swimming pool and at home, everything revolves around the 50s/60s American (pin-up, gas pumps, old cars, etc...).
    We are close to Aubusson, World Capital of the Tapestry listed by UNESCO, in a green and quiet setting.
    We are in the middle of preparing for the season and we need a lot of help to set everything up and ensure the season.
    We mainly need help with maintenance work (pruning, mowing, clearing, DIY ...) but also to repaint, lasure, build pallet furniture etc... and help us in maintenance during the season (maintenance of sanitary facilities, cleaning of accommodation,...).
    We are also looking for someone who can help us in the restaurant, on duty and know how to cook (grill meat, prepare dishes, set plates,...) would be a plus.
    In short, we are looking for someone who is jovial, autonomous, and who wants to work in a family atmosphere and in a rather nice place.
    You will be housed (e) and fed and you can enjoy your free time to stroll in the countryside, along the rivers, go picking mushrooms, ...
    In addition to being housed (e) and fed (e), we offer a remuneration of 10 € per hour worked.
    We’re waiting for you !

    Bonjour,
    Nous sommes un couple d'une soixantaine d'années et nous avons un camping dans la Creuse (Limousin - Nouvelle Aquitaine).
    Nous y avons installé des hébergements insolites "vintage américains".
    Nous avons également un bar/restaurant et une piscine et chez nous, tout tourne autour des années 50/60 américaines (pin-up, pompes à essence, vieilles voitures, etc ...).
    Nous sommes à deux pas d'Aubusson, Capitale Mondiale de la Tapisserie inscrite à l'UNESCO, dans un écrin de verdure et de calme.
    Nous sommes en pleine préparation de la saison et nous avons un grand besoin d'aide pour tout mettre en place et assurer la saison.
    Nous avons principalement besoin d'aide pour les travaux d'entretien du terrain (taille, tonte, débroussaillage, bricolage ...) mais aussi pour repeindre, lasurer, construire du mobilier en palettes, etc... et nous aider dans l'entretien pendant la saison (entretien des sanitaires, nettoyage des hébergements, ...).
    Nous recherchons également quelqu'un qui puisse nous aider au restaurant, en service et savoir cuisiner (faire griller des viandes, préparer des plats, dresser des assiettes, ...) serait un plus.
    En bref, nous recherchons quelqu'un qui soit jovial, autonome, et qui ait envie de travailler dans une ambiance familiale et dans un lieu plutôt sympa.
    Vous serez logé(e) et nourri et vous pourrez profiter de votre temps libre pour aller flâner dans la campagne, le long des rivières, aller à la cueillette des champignons, ...
    En plus d'être logé(e) et nourri(e), nous vous proposons une rémunération de 10€ de l'heure travaillée.
    On vous attend !
