    Description

    I am à Dutch woman, that lives with my dog Bibi in France for 6 months a year in an old watermill in the most southern part of the Bourgogne and I need help with the maintenance of the grounds, but also some handymen in the house. Its a lovely spot with a lake and surrounded by meadows full of wild flowers and the typical white Charolais cows. I have an extra room with a double bed but camping on the grounds is also possible. The Loire is 5 minutes walk from here. The Roman churches are famous and worth visiting.
