  Description

  A few years ago I bought this chocolate box Little cottage and medieval historic barn in the french countryside. It is a fixer upper which I have been working on. I had hoped to turn the barn into an art and yoga studios but haven’t got very far with it at all. There is still loads to do on the house itself / and also its upkeep….(cleaning etc) and potential dog sitting…
  It is small and cute house - only a two bedroom and we would share the bathroom…
  The area is lovely - about 5 minutes in the car to 3 gorgeous different bastides, and many more slightly further. It is just me and my elderly chihuahua and now a little local cat who comes to call and get fed every day. The views are out to fields. I really had great plans to plant flowers but sadly I dont have green fingers though I have great ideas to do that. Anyway if you are in the Dordogne or want to visit and help me out for a bit, please reach out!

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  I am English but speak French and Spanish conversation so can certainly help someone learn English. I would be keen to learn gardening techniques. I want to build raised beds to grow kale and other veggies. There is lots of culture and beauty here. I would love to create a space for yoga but the barn needs a LOT of work done first….

  Hébergement

  I have a spare room with two single beds in it. I would like help to make this room more comfortable, to help with building doors on a closet etc. We share the common spaces including bathroom. It is a newly designed and renovated bathroom so I am keen to keep is completely clean and spotless. The next project is the kitchen, which I want to redesign, but it is functioning…just! With lots of restaurants and farmers markets every week/ weekend - there is plenty of lovely local food. I do cook basic meals, though if you like to cook, I am more than happy for you to take over with meals!

  Autres infos...

  I am an artist and designer. I did a yoga teacher training course in Bali and had this great idea to turn the old barn into an art and yoga studios.
  
  I dont accept smokers, in or outside. I prefer shoes off in the house and house slippers here! Someone who wants to do yoga together in the field would be great. I need help putting together a garden! If you know anything about flower farming that would be amazing too….I have a field next to the barn, and have not planted anything into it…

  Espace pour garer des vans

  If you have a motorhome I do have a field I think you can park in. Otherwise you can park in front of the barn. There is plenty of off street parking.

  Chuchu is an outside cat from the neighbors house who I have been feeding every since hew owner was taken to a home. She is not house trained and lives outside. She does try to come in but when I let her stay she pooped in the house which I do not appreciate. The vet has said she is fine living outside
