Descrição
We are a couple that recently moved here from South Africa and we are renovating an old castle to be turned into a wedding venue.

We are sociable and looking forward to exploring and finding people who can help and in return we will facilitate their exploring.

Algo mais...
Train is close by and just a 30min ride into the city. The hosts are new to France and are also interested in exploring and so workaways will be invited on any trips. Please note that we do get a lot of enquiries and if you enquire about a specific date and I tell you it is available, if you do not conform your dates I will not be able to hold them if someone else confirms those dates prior to you. I have many people who have asked for dates and I allocate it for them only to not hear from them again which is not fair on other people who I may have turned away as a result. Please be understanding of this as we wish to give as many people opportunities as possible.

Macella, Ane and Enea arrive as a pack of minions. Always cheerful, happy and smiling and great company to have around. We were happy to have them and hope that they will remain in contact and perhaps we will visit them in their countries also. x

My experience at the Chateau de la Valouze was fantastic. I was supposed to stay 2 weeks but in the end I was 3 weeks because I loved this workaway. JP is a perfect host, always kind polite and caring towards us. The work was not difficult and I have a lot of cultural exchange with the other workawayers as well. Thanks for everything!!!

I had an awesome time here. I originally intended to stay for two weeks and ended up staying a month and a half!

The work was fairly easy. It consisted mostly of maintaining the property (picking up fallen branches, clearing pipes) and moving furniture so that rooms could be renovated.

The hosts are very nice and inclusive. The rooms were… read more

Gemma and Casey were excellent workaways. Happy and fun and always on hand to assist. They worked well with the others on the team and often would lead the teams at tasks.

We stayed with Dean, JP & Dee for 4 weeks, and had the most amazing time. We would of stayed even longer if we hadn’t already booked our flights to our next workaway!

They feel like a second family to us now, and it was even more upsetting having to say goodbye to them than it was to leave the beautiful Chateaux. They make you feel so at home,… read more

We were living for about 2 months in the chateau and the experience was amazing. Deirdre, Dean and "Papa" JP are a cool family, they taught us a lot about the place, we traveled and shared many good times. We really considered them part of our family and we hope to see them someday in Argentina ;)
