Descripción
We are a South African family living in a beautiful spot in Aurignac.
We have 3 boys and a dog called Blue.
We have turned the old pigstys into a restaurant with the best view the Pyrenees has to offer. We need help with further renovations, in the garden looking after kids and cooking for them.
Ideally we would like someone who has someone French speaking and with a drivers license.

We also have a large polytunnel and would love some one interested in growing vegetables for the house

My boyfriend and I stayed here for about two weeks. We can assure you that its a wonderful place.

From the landscape point of view it is a very beautiful place, with a view of the Pyrenees and with wonderful surroundings to explore by bicycle (which very kindly Jess and Grant lent us whenever we wanted). It is super quiet ideal to relax and… read more

My stay was 2.5 weeks. Had a wonderful time here and met some fantastic people. Jess and Grant were friendly and generous, so thanks again to both of you.

It was a beautiful location and restaurant. Lovely kids and 'child care' was essentially driving them to places every so often. Able to use said car for small trips to villages and lake. Was… read more

I recently spent 6 weeks in Aurignac with Jess, Grant and the boys and it was an absolutely brilliant experience. Everyone was very welcoming and made me feel right at home. I really enjoyed playing outside with the kids, whether that be on the trampoline, table tennis or introducing them to cricket! One of my jobs was to help in the restaurant,… read more

I spent just under four weeks with Jess and Grant and it was really some of the best weeks of my life. As soon as I arrived, I was treated like part of the family. I was really happy to do any type of job they wanted me to because they were such kind people. I loved spending time with the three boys, Josh, Tyler and Zach, and also all their… read more

Arnaud was wonderful! Very capable warm and friendly. He was super helpful and not in a "can I help you?" Kind of way but a can-see-what-needs-to-done and just does it kind of way. He instantly became part of the family and was great with the kids. We loved having him and he is always welcome back.

So much things to say after only 2 weeks in this lovely family. It was really hard to say good bye !

Jess and Grant work with passion on their wonderful restaurant ! I made some sanding, paint, fence building and electricity connection, they are really open on the work you want to do.

For a first workaway, I felt like a member of the family and… read more

I spent three weeks at Jess and Grant's house last summer and it was a beautiful experience. I collaborated in the construction of the restaurant and on very specific occasions in the house. At all times they respected the work hours and I had everything I needed at home. I felt very comfortable, the place was beautiful and quiet. Your animals are… read more

We stayed with Grant, Jess and their wonderful family for two weeks and had a great time. Their home and soon to be restaurant is beautiful and welcoming. We enjoyed amazing views of the Pyrennes both from the restaurant windows while working and from the day trip they shared with us. We can’t wait to come back to Europe to eat at their… read more

Emma and Jordan were like an Australian breath of fresh air coming through our little piece of France. This was their first workaway experience and we could not recommend them highly enough. Hard working in their working day and really helpful in our house and kitchen too. And actually helpfulness is a very underrated quality... they were… read more

We were Magrit's first workaway experience and we could not recommend her more highly. She is helpful, happy to do anything from labouring in the mud to mopping floors. She was lovely with our 3 boys and we were sad to say goodbye!

Grant and Jess were nothing short of wonderful from the moment we met them making us feel like part of the family treating us with love and respect and their kids zach, josh and tyler also welcomed us into their world by giving us tours of the local woods and thrashing us at hide and seek and football alike. They kindly let us stay in their… read more

We loved having these two here with us! They were keen to do anything, worked hard and were so lovely with our three boys. They entertained us with their music and Marky left behind a beautiful drawing of our family which I have already framed and put up!
We wish them all the best for their travels and would not hesitate to recommend them as… read more

We loved having Laércio staying here with us. He is keen to give anything a go and got stuff done! He did some drumming lessons with our 8 year old and really inspired him with an introduction to the 'Blues'. He fitted right into our family and was a great guest! Our only complaint was that he did not stay long enough! We wish him the best of… read more

Jess, Grant and the kids were all good... I only spent 7 days at their house, but I felt I was part of the family. The room, the bed, the whole house and the ambience of the farm were cosy. They have a lot of plans about organizing the farm, I hope they get everything they want! They deserve it!
