  Hi there…
  
  My name is jacqui and my partner is Dave, we run fishing holidays and a Gite business in the south of France on the River Lot.
  
  Medieval hilltop villages, crystal clear streams, limestone cliff faces and deep gorges, just incredible..,ideal for outdoor pursuits such as hiking, fishing, climbing, horse riding, etc etc…and the scenery is breathtaking, inspiration for artists, writers and photographers..
  
  we are lucky enough to have found a small holding right by the river which we share with our two horses and three dogs..
  
  We are looking for motivated people to help out with our project which could be anything from helping out in the kitchen preparing meals, dog walking, helping out with the horses, help keeping the garden tidy and generally being another pair of hands to help out around the place.
  
  As a keen renovator i’m happy to share some DIY skills to beginners , ive just finished the kitchen which I made using all recycled furniture and i loves to refurbish old furniture so you’d definitely pick up some painting tips….
  
  I love to be creative, love DIY, making things and being busy..
  
  i worked in London as an interior designer in the UK for many years before coming to france over ten years ago… somewhere along the road I met dave (he was in between one of his many fishing trips) and we finally ended up in a committed relationship.
  
  Dave is a passionate Carp fisherman who has travelled france on a shoestring following his passion and fishing in some of the most amazing places you could possibly imagine…he has spent months in tents on the banks of vasts lakes and rivers in lure of the big catch and wow ha she caught some incredible carp…
  
  we have launched a boat rental business which is promising to be a very popular with bookings already in place for the 2025 season..there will be lots of visitors wanting to catch fish!!!
  
  For accomadation there is a spare bedroom in the house and we also have the gite which we are currently working on, but its a nice wee place to sleep if you want some privacy…
  the house is a work in progress but its quite comfortable and the location is amazing, there is a local bus that goes from Cahors to Cajarc and figeac so its easy enough to explore..there are lots of fetes during late spring through to autumn, and good markets! Its a great place…
  
  Please message for more info…thanks Jacqui and Dave…
