Description
I am an English guy who has just purchased a Chateau in the Loire Valley. Completely out of my depth, hence thought people might like a piece of the action so to speak.
The house is in good condition but needs general help to get it in a fit state.
People would be welcome to come and stay for free in exchange for some hands on rural fun.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Gardening
DIY and building projects
Creating/ Cooking family meals
Help around the house
General Maintenance
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
The area is rich in history, Bourges is a beautiful city and only 25 mins away. The work will give a experience of rural living, with interaction with the locals. The French people in this are as very friendly and will often engage you in coffee or a glass of wine as they are proud to show you what they do.
Help
Housekeeping and gardening, and DIY. General assistance only.
Languages spoken
French: Fluent
Spanish: Beginner
Accommodation
The house has 5-8 bedooms, the gites have another 4 bedrooms, hence its whatever rooms are free.
What else ...
Google Bourges !!!! The cathedral and the walks around this amazing city are worth the visit alone. The local area has the best vineyards in the world. Sancerre is less than an hour away by car and its fame is understated.
