Descripción
We have mostly finished the renovation on the edge of a national park. It is in a magical position of calm but only 2 km from Valbonne and 20 minutes form Nice airport... the sea is 12Km away!
very interested in anyone that knows about helping to run the bed and breakfast when we have guests, gardening / carpentry / painting / electrics / tiling / forestry

Also have an 1952 BMW to restore if you know anything about cars!!!

The project involves development of the beautiful old stone house . landscaping, forestry and creation of a vineyard from scratch... the list is endless. Also have a 1950's old BMW to restore if you know anything about cars!

Yurt / bedroom within the house or camping... plenty of space to park up a camper van.
Algo más...
There is so much to do in the Cote d'azure... we are in the middle of a vast cultural and sporting area! However, with Covid I would ask that anyone coming here to be careful about where they went during their downtime.

Lovely easy going lad, a real pleasure to have about the place. just gets on with things without needing to be told but will follow directives when given.
In his downtime, he takes himself off to work on his writing or goes and explores.

Highly recommend and sorry to see him move on.
Not a bad word came from him the whole time he was here ... a… read more

Lulu is a fantastic woman. I was only a week, but enough to know the history of this amazing couple. I have greatly enjoyed his sense of humor and his incredible positive energy to realize his dreams.
I would love to know that this incredible project is improving every day.
A big hug to both of you!

I had about a month with Lulu, Karl, Jake and Sergii and it was a really nice experience. Great place in a beautiful spot next to the Brague. Everyone is working hard for making that place more beautiful and I wish I could come back to see the end of this project. Such a nice time. See you. Arnaud

Lulu is a generous, funny and lively woman. She's very patient, kind and optimistic.
She needs different kinds of help, so probably she'll ask for different tasks and you'll not be bored. She's flexible about job timetables. You'll work for 5 hours per day, respecting workaway rules.
She uses to host about 5 workawayers at the same time, and this… read more

What great guy!

Mr Bean (slight look alike ;) ) was such a pleasure to have about. He is pretty handy with appliances and electrics and is quick to take initiative and fit in with everyone.

Was very sorry to see him go and he is welcome back at any time !

A new beautiful experience very rewarding humanly
A beautiful place and a super warm and cool atmosphere thanks to Lulu.
In this natural setting, you seem to be cut off the world and yet close to everything (Antibes, Cannes, Grasse ...) And if you like walking, this place will be perfect for you. Starting just by… read more

I spent all 4 months in this lovely place (my friend Justas left earlier to finish his studies) and it was extraordinary experience. The atmosphere was warm and friendly, people are openminded and welcoming. Places around are just waiting to be explored - forest paths by the river, Valbonne village, hills with beautiful views. We were doing… read more

I had about a month with Lulu and the gang and it was a really nice experience. Was made to feel very welcome, learnt some super handy skills (especially stone walling) and got to meet some great characters! I was the only workawayer but there were plenty of other people working on or popping in to the site/house to hang out with. The place is… read more
