Description
Joe and Vivienne after 21 years in our beautiful castle we moved, 4 years ago, just 30 minutes away to another, smaller, but very beautiful home.
We are able to offer free accommodation and food in exchange for gardening and a small amount of maintenance. We are in St Vigor des Monts - 14 kilometres from the beautiful town of Villedieu Les Poeles. We are in a rural position surrounded by stunning hills and amazing bike rides and walks for those that enjoy the countryside.
We have 2 dogs and 3 cats.
