Description
We are located in the centre of France in a rural farming community. Our nearest large town in Moulins, in the 03 department. We took on the renovation of a farmhouse and grounds some years ago, and are continuing to develop the property. However, we are getting into senior years, our work ethic remains the same, but realise that our bodies are getting tired! We have one last building project to complete this year, from start to finish.
Great opportunity for anyone wanting to learn the rudiments of building work. We have a spare room for accommodation (would suit a couple, ideally); can provide three good meals a day, and plenty of wine and conversation!

Autres infos...
We live a fairly quiet life, but have a number of local friends who we share time with. For anyone with own transport, there are lots of interesting places nearby for visits. We share our life with a number of cats (10-12), 2 young dogs and some hens. We are very willing to share our expertise and knowledge with others during their non-work hours if requested.
