  Description

  We are Claus and Margriet 64 and 65 yo. We live with our dogs and 8 horses in Lot et Garonne SW France. We need help maintaining the 12 ha property, taking care and training of the horses and gardening. As Margriet is often traveling we need some help with maintenance of the property and taking care of the horses. You will stay in one of the big bedrooms/apartment with bathroom and toilet. It is not a paid position. We provide accommodation and food and will help you to feel at home, meet people and see something of the region.
