    Description

    Do you love nature and helping out in the garden?

    I'm offering to stay in a teepee tent in exchange for a little help on my 3-hectare plot:
    - cutting gorse
    - helping with ongoing garden projects

    I acquired this plot of land, along with a stone house that will be renovated in 2026, two years ago. I started clearing the land, cleaning it, and putting up small stone walls.
    For the moment, the house is awaiting renovation, but the bathroom is usable (and clean), and there's a gas stove and sink with hot water where you can cook.

    I'd like this place to host artistic creations in the future.
    I enjoy meeting people, sharing, and creating. I paint and I love poetry, and I dedicate energy to this place, which I hope will become a meeting space.
    From here, you can explore several pretty trails along streams and through the forest. The village of La Vraie-Croix is also accessible on foot in just 10 minutes.
    By car, we are 30 minutes from Damgan Beach and Suscinio. Vannes is 20 minutes away.
    The tent can accommodate one or two people (1 double bed), but you can also bring your own tent.
    A welcoming, peaceful place, perfect for those looking to recharge their batteries!

    The hours can be concentrated into fewer than 5 days depending on the weather and our schedule.

    Vous aimez la nature et aider au jardin pour y contribuer à sa beauté ?

    Je vous propose de loger dans une tente tipi en échange d'un petit coup de main sur mon terrain de 3ha :
    - couper les ajoncs
    - aider aux projets en cours dans l'aménagement du terrain

    J'ai acquis ce terrain avec une maison en pierre qui sera rénovée en 2026 il y a 2 ans. J'ai commencé à éclaircir le terrain, le nettoyer et remonter des petits murets en pierre.
    Pour le moment la maison est en attente de rénovation mais la salle de bain est viable (et propre) et il y a aussi une cuisinière à gaz + évier avec eau chaude où vous pourrez cuisinier.

    J'aimerais que ce lieu puisse accueillir à l'avenir des créations artistiques.

    J'aime les rencontres, le partage et créer. Je peins,j'aime la poésie et consacrer de l'énergie à ce lieu qui je l'espère deviendra un espace de rencontre.

    A partir d'ici, vous pouvez partir à pied vous baladez dans plusieurs jolis sentiers au bord de ruisseaux et en forêt. Le village de la Vraie-Croix est aussi accessible à pied en 10min à peine (boulangerie, restaurant, épicerie, bar tabac) épicerie bio à Sulniac.

    Avec votre véhicule, nous sommes à 30min de la plage de Damgan et de Suscinio. Vannes est à 20min.

    La tente peut accueillir une ou deux personnes (1 lit double) mais vous pouvez aussi amener votre propre tente. Un véhicule est nécessaire si vous souhaitez découvrir les environs.

    Lieu bienveillant, calme, pour quelqu'un qui a envie de se ressourcer !

    Les heures peuvent être concentré sur moins de 5 jours selon la météo et nos rythmes.
