Hello,
We are a retired couple living in a renovated chateau in Adilly, France. This is 7 km from Parthenay. The grounds are on 50 acres with 6 fully renovated guest homes. We do not rent out the houses we keep them for family, friends and helpers.
There is a lake on the property where live music is played sometimes. We also have art retreats at the property.
We have a senior dog rescue so help with the dogs is always appreciated.
The property is beautiful with a very relaxing atmosphere. Take walks through the forest and meadows or swim in the pool.
Professionaly Alex owned a French restaurant for 23 years before retirement. I was a cancer research scientist. Consulting and then opening my own research facility.
Alex and I are American, I have dual citizenship as Belgian. I speak English and French, Alex speaks English and Arabic.

Our chateau was originally built in the 1500s and rebuilt on the old foundation in the 1700s. There is a lot of history on the property itself.
We encourage local bands to play on the grounds for charity events. Art exhibits and clinics are held at the chateau as well.
The nearby town of Parthenay has lot of history and is part of the route of the Camino de Santiago.
Ce projet peut impliquer des enfants. Pour en savoir plus, consultez nos directives et conseils ici.
Help with gardening, outdoor projects (splitting wood with a splitting machine, maintaining exteriors of houses, etc.) With such a large property there will be multiple projects to choose from.
We can also use help with the senior dog rescue.
The interior help will mainly consist of maintenance or decorating.
