Description
Hello,
We’re looking for someone to house-sit for a few days at Christmas (22- 28 December) and take care of our animals; a small dog, (mini schnauzer called Dotty), 3 cats,(Rufus, Lenny & Maurice), 2 goats, (Chris & Carla) 15 hens and a pony, Tempo. All very easy.
They are all friendly but we ask that you have previous experience with animals, and particularly with handling ponies and mucking out stables (there will be no riding involved).
Farm location in rural Normandy, you will need a car or be happy to use a bike (nearest shop is 2.5km) and you must have health insurance.
The house is equipped with an Aga and log burner, lovely for the festive season.
Looking forward to hearing from you, Kate

My first Workaway experience and straight away great one!
Delicious meals, horse riding events, taking care of the "boys" (ponies) and hanging around with Dotty and cats.

This was my first workaway experience and a wonderful one at that. Kate and Stephane are kind, hardworking people with a wonderful family. I recommend a daily run to keep the consistently amazing food from fattening you up! Kate and Lesley are brilliant cooks and we had many fascinating conversations.

They are above and beyond hard-working; no physical task was ever too much for them, whether chopping huge hedges, cleaning junk out of barns, painting, weeding, taking care of the animals - they took on all tasks with great willingness and always… read more

My time with this family on their beautiful farm, was just wonderful. Kate and Stéphane are lovely people, who made me feel very welcome and the children are funny and kind. Kate's food was just awesome and my room was gorgeous. I also loved the dog, the horses and the cute chickens and I would highly recommend this workaway experience.
Thank you!

I spent 6 weeks with the Le Moigne family in the Spring of 2010, and I had a lovely time. The whole family made me feel very much at home, and in the few spare minutes that we had, Kate was wonderful to talk to. It's a busy but vibrant place to work; there's always something to be doing. I was able to help on a diverse range of projects -… read more

I stayed here for almost 3 weeks and really enjoyed my time there. Wonderful house and location, great kids and lovely, generous people. I worked in the garden, prepared for redecorating inside, with the animals, helping in the B&B and milking the cows on the farm. Enjoyed learning about the farm, the history of the house and local area and… read more

Laissé par l'hôte pour le workawayer (Franz-Josef)
Franz stayed on our farm in Normandy from mid- October to the end of December 2009 and was very helpful, hard working, quiet and polite. He always did the jobs he was asked to do (for us, it was lots of painting) and was a pleasant person to have staying with our family. We would recommend him as a reliable Workaway-er.
