    Description

    Hi, we are a couple living in southwest France, renovating an old house in the Gers. We live with our animals, 6 horses, 2 goats, chickens , cats and dogs. We have a vegetable garden where we could use some help, as even with cuddling our animals. The stay can be in your own camping car or van (march-oct/Nov), or in our Bell tent (from, depends on weather, april- sept). Do not hesitate to contact us if you have questions or want to stay with us.
