    Hello
    If your looking for a true French experience we are it!
    Please note we can only host people from March to August.
    We recently moved into a beautiful chateau in France, it's so big you can get lost inside. My husband is busy working on the farm. I am looking for an extra pair of hands about the castle. I work full-time and we have a 3 year old boy and a very silly English Setter dog.
    There are so many fun projects you can pick as you like.
    We are expecting a newborn baby towards the end of the year.
    It really is an adventure living here you could spend hours reading the old books in the library or walking around the garden. I just need someone or an couple to help me please keep on top of our family life. Washing, Garden, Cleaning, Supermarket shop. If you want you can help my husband with the animals on the farm. Our son is at a nanny all week and we have a cleaner for castle.
    I just need help with our daily family life. Room, food ect all provided.
    We are in the countryside but 30 mins to an excellent train line and village.
    We speak English and French at home.
    I am super chilled person you can do whatever you like all day as I am busy at work.
    The nice part about living here is all the space so you can have your private space.
    If you would like to learn more please let me know.
    Thank you.
