  Description

  We are looking for a couple who like to combine Holiday and labour in the comfort of our House. In général it’s only for about 2-3 weeks. Besides enjoying the house, treat the house as it was yours, you need to mow at least ones a week (2 hours) and taking car of our cat. Little work will be in general some painting activities. It depends on where we are with the renovation of the big house. We will be there to make you known with the house and get to know each other. Then we are off to Holland for family visit or for holiday.
  If you are not coming by car, an old Audi A4 is available.
