Hello all intrepid explorers :•} and hopefully new friends. My husband and I moved to France in 2024 with two toddlers and built a house and gite complex and it was lively, lively and shiny lol. Unfortunately we didn't survive as a couple, but remained friends, more so when he got ill, but the property couldn't be kept up to and it became sad. The place has reverted to me recently and I want it to shine again as it deserves to, but I need help.

I was thinking of 5 hours work per day over 5 days, flexible on how we work it, if you prefer a different method to 25h per week please say. You'll have your own bedroom in the gite and take showers in the main house. There is a kitchen you can use for your convenience and days off, or we can even provide a food allowance if you prefer to make your own due to nutrition différences. A no judgement policy all around.
We are in the centre of Brittany, there is no public transport for 18 kms. We live near, (2kms,) a huge lake with beaches and beautiful forests.
We need help in cleaning, painting, sanding, repairing, hedge cutting, grass cutting, tree lopping etc. Everyday handy man jobs. Spring is mainly garden orientated.
We just all get on, respect each other and fellow volunteers and hopefully have fun and make lasting good memories. If you're not happy Speak to us, if you're happy speak to others :)
