Dejado por el anfitrión para el workawayer (Fred & Franziska)
Fred, Pacha and their kids were with us for 3 weeks in early spring. They are a very relaxed, personable and interesting family. They approached all their jobs with enthuisiasm and competence, and got lots done :) They were great guests, we cooked together, learnt new skills and had interesting discussions about everything from education to

Good luck in finding yourselves a community and home!

This was our 11th (and last?) work away host, and definitely one of the best. Accommodations in their gite were truly first rate, private and spacious enough for our family of four. We were there in March so we got to help prepare the gardens for spring. We also helped with painting the guest rooms that they've converted out of an old barn. The
… read more renovations were an inspiration to us, because we're hoping to buy and restore some old property too, and we learned a lot about how to do it right. The setting in central France is absolutely beautiful, and Gabi, Ian and the kids were all wonderful hosts. Four stars!Solo puedes ponerte en contacto con workawayers con membresías activas.

Ryoma, Machi and Ten stayed with us for 3 weeks in late summer. What a lovely family - polite, helpful and hard working. While they were here they weeded and re-built my vegetable beds, did some terrace-laying and generally helped with whatever needed doing. We had fun cooking together and had some really good times :)
Machi's English is good,

We wish them lots of luck on their onward adventures and would highly recommend them to any host.

We spent three beautiful weeks at Gabrielle's and Ian's great house. It was already few months ago (sorry for the delay in the review!), but we still keep the memories alive with us. It was our first workaway experience and couldn't have asked for anything better.
Their project is huge and we hope all the best in their future. Gianluca helped

As a family, we had part of the gite for ourselves and it turned out very convenient and comfortable. Gabrielle and Ian are very helpful for anything we needed, we had an issue with our car and Gabrielle very kindly recommended a mechanic and gave us a lift when our car was unavailable.
The region they live in is just amazing, we visited Clermont Ferrand, Vichy, the stunning Puy de Dome and many little villages in the surroundings. Again, they were very kind to provide us with travel info and maps.
Their children are the sweetest and our daughter had a great time with them, she still talks about her friends Louis and Flo :)
We would definitely recommend this place to other workawayers and we would be very happy to come back one day.

We spent three lovely weeks at Gabrielle and Iain’s beautiful abode. We felt welcomed, appreciated and were extremely well looked after the whole time.
Our accommodation was their nearly-finished Gite. The kitchen and the upper floor bathroom with spa bath were yet to be completed but the Gite was just fantastic to stay in. Gabrielle and Iain
… read more really ARE going High End with their fixtures and finishings to the Gite and they intend to mirror the quality and style to the other three Gite complex that makes the rest of the huge old barn that is being converted in the most sympathetic manner.
Our task for the period was to complete as much as possible of the huge terrace area that fronts these lovely Gites. Steve laid the Travertine slabs and I had the lovely task of using the beautiful mineral-laden shimmering stones that had been dug out of the barn’s floor to make a kind of large mosaic-patterned, deep edging around the many flower beds within the terrace. It was hard work for both of us but what was lovely was that Iain was out there every day, working away alongside us, building small decorative walls - which Steve also helped on. Gabrielle came and helped with the mosaicking whenever she could in between looking after their two lovely children Flo and Louie and cooking up the most glorious evening meals! We got fed like kings! Whenever the weather allowed, it was al-fresco lunches with masses of cheese, ham, salami, salads, breads…. Dinners were always a gastronomic delight. Gabrielle intends to host dinner events for her Gite guests and I guarantee that these events will be a massive hit, she definitely has a talent there. Their young children are also an absolute delight. They are friendly, inquisitive and extremely polite – a joy to be around.
So, to conclude Steve and I had a fantastic time with Gabrielle and Iain. We worked hard and received absolutely first class accommodation and food in return, along with a lot of pleasant compliments. I thoroughly recommend anyone to go and Workaway for them. The location is also just stunning with breath-taking scenery, lots of places for countryside or woodland walks or cycle rides, with a mass of pretty villages in between. A perfect place for their little complex of Gites. We wish them very much luck with them – they deserve it.

Flo and Felix stayed with us for 10 days in summer 2014. They worked harder than expected (decorating our huge sitting room in our coach house!), learnt fast, played with the children, helped around the house and kitchen, enjoyed the local area and generally fitted in really well with our family. I would highly recommend them. Good luck with your

We stayed with Gaby, Iain, Louie and Flo for 10 days in the latter part of July - our first Workaway experience and we couldn't have asked for a better one. During our stay, in exchange for painting the walls of their barn, soon to be chambres d'hote, and ceiling of the gite, plus a bit of weed destruction, they made us feel like a part of their

They are a fun and welcoming family and Gaby is an incredible chef, impressing us daily (will never forget that redcurrant + elderflower sorbet, but also the roast pork belly, falafels... the guests to the gite will be spoiled!). They were fab company over dinner and wine and it was great to get to know them, Louie and Flo, and learn about life in Auvergne and their plans for the gite/chambres d'hote. Plus, in our down time they were very kind in showing us the local area - a beautiful and tranquil part of France - and recommending places to run and cycle.
We highly recommend them as hosts and cannot wait to see how the barn will turn out - be sure to send us some photos!
Best of luck for the future, Flo + FelixSolo puedes ponerte en contacto con workawayers con membresías activas.
