Description
I am an English nurse, I have lived in south Normandy with my partner Ralph for five years, developing my gîte business and renovating my beautiful traditional French granite longere and large garden…

I am developing and evolving a gite business , however I do not need and I am not looking for any help or interaction with this business or with guests.

I have arthritis in my knee and a chronically injured ankle and I am looking for people who want to spend a few days helping with my own land/ garden..my own home ( housework and diy) and my animals….
In exchange I can offer a lovely large bedroom with newly renovated wet room..the use of a large fully equipped kitchen a very central location for Normandy attractions and a very tranquil and laid back environment
A car is essential here…this is rural Normandy with very limited public transport and all shops are too far to walk.

I do not provide meal’s ..I am only asking 2-3 hours help per day… ,however workers are welcome to use the large and well equipped kitchen in the house.

The village was originally built for the granite workers at the 50 plus granit quarries in the area… there is now only one viable quarry and a granite museum.
