Descrição
We are Peter and Mike
We will next be needing some help in the beautiful medieval cite of Carcassonne.
We are have a lovely house right in the centre of Carcassonne just 10/15 minutes walk from the medieval cite and just 5 minutes from the new town and 10 minutes from the train station and the Canal du Midi.
We are specifically looking to host a couple, to help us ideally. We would like to host couples only over the age of 21. Please note we will not require help after the end of August so please do not ask for dates beyond this.
The help that we need is very general, so people with a flexible approach would be excellent. The help that we need is s around the house and garden, general cleaning and tidying. We are also moving house during this period so there will also be a lot of re organising, packing, and moving things around the house and to a storage unit.
We offer a private room with ensuite facilities, and will provide food for all meals, on days off too of course. Our workawayers help 5 hours a day, 5 days a week with 2 days to enjoy Carcassonne and the local area. We have been hosting for a number of years and are very responsible hosts.
Please get in touch if you are interested or would like further information.

Algo mais...
Carcassonne is a nice town in the South West of France. Its has a big tourist attraction, the magical and very beautiful medieval cite.
The new town whilst fairly small has a great vibe with lots of interesting shops, and a lovely central square. The new town and medieval cite are just 15/20 minutes walking between the two so everything is very easy to get to.
So many places of interest to get to on local trains including Toulouse just an hour away.
