Kergohy

You'll have the unforgettable experience of spending time in day-to-day work with the alpacas as a part of the 2 and 4 legged family for however long you are here.

Kergohy alpaca farm is on the edge of a village and is a peaceful place with a small wood and a stream running through the land. There are lots of birds here - 74 at the last count - and it’s a very rare day that has no birdsong, even in winter.

This is a working farm and, apart from the care of the alpacas every day, there is always maintenance work to be done – fencing, tree clearing and bridge building are some of the recent projects. There is also some building work on old farm buildings which are being restored and repurposed.

Work is not hard, but it can be physical - sensible weather-appropriate working clothes are essential, including a waterproof jacket. Wellies and gloves are provided.

The language of the farm is English, although I can speak French.

Volunteers are treated as part of the family and have their own bedroom and bathroom.
Meals are eaten together - and clearing up is done together as well! You will be well-fed - I like to cook a variety of dishes, of which very few would be suitable for restricted diets, such as vegetarian/vegan, gluten/lactose intolerance or for religious obligations such as kosher or halal.

For health and safety reasons, the whole farm is a 'no smoking/vapeing' area.

I like to show visitors this wonderful corner of the world and days out when essential animal work is done are all part of the experience.

You're encouraged to explore the area on your own and a bike is available for anyone who'd like to explore the cycling routes of Brittany.

Please note: France does not recognise the concept of digital nomad and it is not permitted to work like this in France.
