Description
Hi! We are Janeck (39) & Jo (37) from the Netherlands, but we are building a Glamping in France.
Last summer we started Glamping Auvergne in Gouttières (central France). We are building luxury safari tents on our 2,5 ha land surrounded by nature! You are away from the crowd, it is a quiet beautifull place!
On top of the hill there is a large farm with 4 rooms, 4 bathrooms, living area and kitchen. Down the hill we have a pool and a natural lake to swim.
From march-june & september-october we are mainly creating and setting up new facilities on the terrain, we also do gardening and cleaning on the terrain. We are looking for English or Dutch speakers (single or couples) that like to create things. The months of juli & august we are looking for (preferable) Dutch speakers that can really help us running the glamping, hosting guests, serving guests, cleaning tents and bathrooms, helping with dinners etc. In exchange for some work we offer food, accomodation and wage.
If you like to help us creating, building or running Glamping Auvergne? Contact us!
We hope to see you soon!
Jo & Janeck
