    Description

    Hello !
    My name is Cassandre, I live in a french castle with my husband, my daughters of 4 and 1 and my father.
    I just came back home to help my father with the property and I need help with my daughters to get some time to work.

    There is a lot to do in a domain like ours , I 'm about to launch a new activity there and I need time to work on it so my need would be someone who loves spending time with children and who can take care of my two daughters while I'm working ( always around ).
    But my dad is also a hardworker and just started some constructions around our house so I guess someone to help him would be welcome !

    Right now it's also weddings season so we have weddings every weekends : if you are able to help with cleaning it's perfect !

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    You will sleep in a room of the property :) 2 beds or queen size bed , bathroom and beautiful style in a room.
    You can cook in a huge kitchen.
    During Summer : As all rooms are booked during weekends ( weddings ), we can't provide accommodation on saturday nights and sometimes friday nights. So the best is if you have a camper or a tent for these days.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    As the castle is in the forest, you should like the calm and the serenity if you come :) Even if during the weekend we have sometimes events with a lot of people, most of the time the property is quiet.
    You could go to the village Mènestreau by walk or bike and also take the bus to go to Orléans ( city of Jeanne of Arc). There is 2 buses by day but we are also going to the city with our cars so you could come with us if you want.

    All around you have "Les châteaux de la Loire' and different activities around culture and history :)
