    Description

    3 years ago, I was a workawayer working with my now ex girlfriend in the exact restaurant and Gites that are now mine!
    I came back in 2020 and am building up the business. The restaurant is very seasonal, but very popular. I am looking for help in the kitchen and garden, mowing the lawn, weeding, and hedge cutting. In the kitchen I need help washing up and waitressing/waitering. Also if you're mechanically able, some help with car mechanics.
    A good grasp of french would be good but not vital!
    I have 2 cats, Croissant and Baguette, baguette is 10 months old, croissant is 13 years old. Clair and Corey, my friends and helpers, have a dog, Rocket, and 2 cats. The atmosphere in the restaurant is very relaxed and calm, but weekends it does become vibrant and have a party atmosphere after 8pm.
    Please.excuse.the low.reply rate, I was inundated last year with offers of help, and trying to run this place and answer every one was too much. This year I'm much more organised!
