Ajuda
Houses are slowly being reconstructed, so need help with light reconstruction tasks. We are also learning about permaculture and organic farming, so it could be a good educational experience. We need help with the garden and perhaps occasional child-sitting. They're great kids!

Acomodação
Rooms with beds in house detached from the family home. Two or more rooms available with two single beds in each which can be pushed together to form doubles. Shower available, bathroom in the main house. In a beautiful, peaceful village. Hot mineral springs and small river nearby and lots to do here.
Algo mais...
There is a hot mineral springs in the next village which is a real treat. This area is called The Valley of Roses and because of the really clean air, it produces about 90% of the world's rose oil used in the production of perfume. Quaint little village but with lots to do here. Sheep, goats, horses and hens roam freely through the dirt streets. Feels like you've gone back in time a few hundred years.
