Help me on a small alpaca farm in rural Brittany

My stay with Mo and Stuart was the most fulfilling and enriching experience I could've asked for!!! We fed and cleaned up after the animals each morning, and afternoons were filled with various other tasks (where I learned a lot of new skills!) Mo and Stuart are both wonderful teachers and kind, generous hosts. Besides learning lots about alpaccas, the few weeks spent with them taught me lots about the world as well - agriculture, sustainability, politics, culture, food. the time flew right by. Thank you both!

I had an exceptionally good experience at the farm. Mo and Stuart are wonderful hosts and you immediately feel welcome. The animals are absolutely adorable and the natural surroundings bring a lot of peace and quiet. In general, you get into a state of relaxation very quickly here thanks to the deceleration during the days- without ever getting bored. The work is fun and you learn a lot (they like to teach and are very patient about it). I had a wonderful time that just flew by.

Mo and Stuart are lovely hosts, with a beautiful farm and cosy farmhouse. Their daily tasks are simple and they are always doing them alongside you. Both have many skills they are willing to share and are great nurturing teachers at their crafts. All the animals are so cute and friendly. I had the best experience being part of the family for 2.5 weeks and living their French farm life, it was everything I had hoped for and more. I hope to make my way back to their little slice of paradise again!

I had a wonderful stay with Stuart and Mo and felt very welcome. My tasks included feeding the alpacas, cleaning up after them, and filling the hay nets. We built new fences and got to try lots of new things, which I really enjoyed. I was spoiled with delicious food—Mo is an amazing cook!

My stay at the farm was absolutely incredible!! Mo and Stewart were so kind and I immediately felt welcomed and it felt like home :) The tasks were mainly feeding the alpacas, cleaning the paddocks and filling up haynets and I also did some fencing (->new skills yay!) The atmosphere was amazing and we laughed a lot together, played Rummikub, talked politics and Mo showed me how to card and spin wool :D The dogs and cats welcome you as part of the family pretty fast as well! 🥰 Thank you both for two unforgettable weeks and all the delicious food of course!!

I cannot recommend this place. I planned to stay two weeks but left early due to how I was treated. After finishing the tasks on the first day, I decided to rest because of a headache. At dinner, Mo spoke to me in a very rude and condescending way, accusing me of “vanishing” without communicating enough, even though I thought the work was done. When I explained how I felt, she continued with personal and unnecessary comments, and it was clear she didn't care that I was unwell. I felt extremely uncomfortable, unwelcome, and disrespected, so I decided to leave early.

Mo and Stewart were exceptional hosts and they live in a beautiful part of France. Upon arrival I was immediately welcomed as part of the family. They went above and beyond to ensure that I was comfortable at all times including with whatever tasks were at hand. I learned lots about the alpacas, pyrography and how to spin wool. The work is very manageable and rewarding and there is plenty of time to explore the local area. Mo and Stewart are both excellent cooks and I enjoyed a wide range of delicious meals during my stay. Overall, this was a great experience and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay!

Mo & Stuart are incredibly kind people who did everything to make me feel welcome in their home. Between the pets and interesting conversations, there was always something going on, so it never got boring! The work is easy and rewarding and I was patiently taught all the skills I needed. I learned a lot, like processing wool(spinning, knitting, etc.) or how to build a fence. The food is amazing: Mo's dinners and of course lots of tea with biscuits..
