Description
I'm living in an outdoor domain in the mountain between Lyon and Clermont-Ferrand in the Loire county, above the vineyard.
The surrounding domain is 7Ha large and I can't care it by my own only.
The domain of Ermitage les Roches has a such peculiar situation that people find here energy, quietness, and deep feeling of nature, in order to rebuild as much spirit and body in a perfect equilibrium.
However to enable hosting I need to enhance capacity and comfort as well as to ensure maintenance of the outdoors (terraces, natural stones walls, wood cleaning and timbering, gardening, wood building, masonry etc.)
Unfortunately I can't do it alone on my own as I'm now 62 years old.
This is why I need some help, and I'll be pleased to host people ready to help me maintaining and restoring the domain in a cultural exchange spirit, sharing experiences and expertises.
I'll be happy to make people profit by my experience of life as I also did mentoring of young entrepreneurs and professionals in my business life. Together with a nice stay home with good cooking.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I'll be happy to share all my life experience, spiritual moments, french cooking, and to transmit what I learned from life.
Help
Everything related to building and restoring old stone house, timbering, wood framing, designing outdoor surroundings. Welcoming people who are keen to help maintaining the domain against a healthy stay in an exceptional place where you face a 360 view on the Loire valley, live surrounded by nature only, meet deers and fox, birds and wild boars.
as the house is isolated I have to achieve most works by my own in a self-construction approach. When it's possible I hire tradespeople for specific works but it's hard to motivate people coming there, that's why I have to do the work by myself.
I do not want any help regarding the hosts I welcome when I rent the house. I only need help to work in the domain outside when I'm there.
