Description
Hi, we are Ernest and Mireille (Europeans with a Dutch passport). Almost twenty years ago we moved to Sweden, seven years later to the United Kingdom and three years ago we settled in Normandy, France in a beautiful old notary's house from 1791. Our small animal kingdom consists of two Jack Russells, a cats, chickens and runner ducks. We have started a food forest and flower meadow in the field behind our large garden. Our house is a place for family and friends and friends of friends who want to take a break. We live on the edge of a small village with all the necessary amenities. Ernest is a great chef and his international dishes are a daily treat.

Our native language is Dutch. We are fluent in English and also intermediate French. We both work from home. Ernest in finance at a large international company and Mireille currently as a jack of all trades.

We need help with the food forest (weeding, planting) and plan out the crops for next year. Cooking a few times a week is greatly appreciated.

Hébergement
We offer you your own bedroom and bathroom and of course all meals are included in your stay with us. Ernest is a great chef but would like to have a couple of evenings off to cook. So if you could prepare meals as well that would be great. We eat healthy food, cooked from scratch. We also offer you free WIFI.
