Le Haut Bouffey

It's a 3 bedroom house that requires renovation. I have no staff it's me, my 2 cats and sometimes my significant other. I have 2 bedrooms for the use of visitors I'm a qualified chef so the food will be good for a European I also have skills in carpentry. If you look at the photos you will see an evolution of the work that has been done by previous volunteers I couldn't have done it without the help of Henrik, Olivia, Daniel, Raphael, Mariane, Michael and Lucas. There is still a lot of work to do including first and second fix carpentry, installation of the kitchen and bathroom in the newly constructed annexe. If you feel you have skills and can contribute to the continued restoration you will be welcome here.

If you choose a stay here you'll be well fed, choose your own time table for how you balance your work/leisure time all I ask is common sense and ability to learn if you don't have the right skills at this time a wish to learn.

Wonderful stay! The host is elegant and very kind. Delicious food, clean and tidy place. Lots of time to relax, a big collection of movie CDs, and even a horse farm nearby. The town is beautiful. Just make sure to ask her well about the tasks, as you might need to repeat your questions to avoid confusion😅. Thank you for the warm hospitality

I had a wonderful experience volunteering in Normandy. The work is very relaxed, the schedules are respected, and I learned a lot from Jan. The host is a very kind person, provided me with a good stay and meals(hmmm, the meals, yummy), and also gained a wealth of knowledge. It was great to talk to her. It was an honor to be here, and I hope to come back again.

It was an incredible honor to be here. I was treated like family. Jan and Michael are very intelligent and they kept me laughing the entire time. The work is reasonable and could be different from one day to the next, anything from painting to gardening and helping with whatever Michael is working on. Jan cooks some great food and she is always very helpful if you need any information. I was very happy to be able to relax in the countryside, although it's only an hour train ride away from Paris. It was an awesome experience, and I would recommend everyone to apply.
