Descrição
Bonjour!
We are a family of three: Pete (English/French), Emilie (14 years old), and Sidney (11 years old). Our home is a beautiful old chateau, nestled in 29 acres of meadow in the stunning Pyrenees mountains, only an hour and a half south of Toulouse.
We're looking for practical and hardworking individuals or couples to help us with a variety of tasks, including:
Plasterboarding
Clearing brambles/strimming
Rainwater collection on the solar panels
Weeding
Mowing lawns
Making the lawns and garden more maintainable
Planting for summer
Tidying the garden
Deep cleaning some rooms of the house
DIY/building work
Construction projects
Tending to our vegetable patch (weeding, turning soil, etc.)
We have two rooms available and are seeking individuals who enjoy physical work and being outdoors. You should also be comfortable around children, as our kids love interacting with our guests.
A little about us:
We finished renovating the interior of the chateau in 2009, and since then have focused on sustainability by installing solar panels for hot water and photovoltaic panels for electricity, as well as rainwater collection and composting. We use our own wood for cooking and heating in the winter, and enjoy eating fruits and vegetables from our garden in the summer months. Alongside working from home in IT, we also run a holiday rental cottage in the outbuilding near the chateau.
We can't wait to welcome you into our beautiful home and work alongside you to create something special.
