  Description

  Hi, we are a couple living in southwest France, renovating an old house in the Gers. We live with our animals,we have 5 (abandoned ) horses, 2 goats, chickens , cats and dogs. We have a vegetable garden where we could use some help, as even with feeding and cuddling our animals. And if you like cooking, maybe you can cook meal for us. As nearest village is about 4 km , you need to have your own transport as we need our own car for work. The stay can be in your own camping car or van (march-oct/Nov), or in our Bell tent (from, depends on weather, may- sept). Do not hesitate to contact us if you have questions or want to stay with us.

  Aide

  What we need during spring and summer is some help with our animals, vegetable garden, and some help with creating our paddock paradise for abandoned horses and ponies. Maybe some mowing, cleaning bushes, and after some storms we had, some trees has to put down. Depends what you like and what we need at that time.
  If you like Cooking and some small household, we are quit flexible. All in good agreement. It is Just for a couple of hours a day the rest of the day you can enjoy French lifestyle. There is a swimming lake nearby with small beach, bar, restaurant in the nearest village 4 km away, wakeboard, canoeing, paintbal, etc at 5 to 10 km
