  Descripción

  Until 2018, we have been "part timers" in France but have now become almost full timers! Lee and I have owned our little Chateau for almost 4 years now - we fell in love with it at first sight! We also have a cottage in Lower Normandy which we have owned for 11 years . We are totally in love with France and all things French! Our little Medieval chateau is in the Vienne region and we have now turned this into a delightful holiday/events destination with a luxury 6m x 12m pool. If you don't know rural France we can certainly recommend it - come and see for yourself! When in the UK, we stay in Kent where we have friends and family. My passion is cooking and I promise, you will eat splendidly when staying with us.

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  We are both English and English speaking, I speak fluent (almost) French and we both speak German. Lee is running a Design Consultancy business which was formerly based in London and I am a retired business commercial director. I also have recently owned and run a food business and cooking is my absolute passion, so good food is always on the menu, plus I am happy to teach cookery also. Lee is a budding artist and attends art classes locally, if this is one of your interests, I know he would love to share it with you.
  
  The chateau itself is set in a beautiful rural location with lots of wildlife, especially all types of birds.

  Ayuda

  The Chateau is set in it's own domain and has a large garden, private river banks, fields and a small forested area. We are currently renovating some of the buildings and developing the garden areas. We need help with gardening, possibly fruit picking, maybe some housework and general chores.
