Help needed for busy Cycling Guest House

Spending time with Sam and James was a valuable learning experience. Both are great hosts and fun to talk to. It was amazing to improve my cooking skills, especially in French and English cuisine, and also to learn about their culture. I also consider that I learned a lot about hospitality and business. The experience is a full immersion in nature, and I also had an amazing time sharing meals with guests from America, England, and France. I will forever keep Sam's care in my heart.

The guest house was a very lovely experience. We went together with my girlfriend, and from the first day, we felt right at home. Samantha and James are two incredible people, very warm and attentive, as well as their sons, Will and Ben. Our work was tough, as we were there at a time of year when the place was preparing for the season, so the tasks were a little different than we expected. It's a splendid place to connect with nature, and it served me well for practicing my English.

We stayed at Chateauret for two weeks in mid-April. Sam and James are wonderful hosts, as are their sons, Will and Ben. They are very welcoming and made us feel at home from day one. As for the work, it wasn't what we were expecting, but it was okay. We worked in the garden, cleaned part of the lake, and helped move logs from five big trees they were cutting down. It was hard work, but we learned a lot about maintaining a large estate and country house. Sam is an AMAZING cook, so rest assured, you are going to eat well here 😅 Thanks Sam and James for everything. We hope to visit again soon ❤

Sam and James are amazing people! We enjoyed our stay very much, and felt warm and welcomed. They treated us like family. The work was not hard at all, almost every day we would work on something different and learn new things. Sam's cooking is fantastic! She is a MasterChef! And we also got her recipes, hihi :) It really felt like home away from home and we are really grateful for this experience. Suggested to anyone without any doubts❤️

I connected with their lifestyle since I arrived, the perspective of sustainability and from their actions to be able to help to have a better planet 🌎 The accommodation is very nice, comfortable and the food is exquisite, Sam teaches us her recipes and we help her to cook. Both Sam and James tell us each day the activities to do, explaining and guiding us to do it in the best way. They are a very nice family and being there as a volunteer makes you part of it. It is also a good opportunity to practice english all the time. Thank you very much for everything :) 🏡😁

This was not my first Worldpackers experience, but it was definitely the best! I was surrounded by beautiful nature and views and lived in an incredible house immersed in aforementioned nature and where I could learn useful life skills, but the best part of this experience were definitely the hosts. James and Sam could always manage to make me feel welcome, their house felt more like an home for the days I was there. I always felt welcome, never out of place and they always went out of their way to make me feel like that. Noodle was also lovely Thank you for such an incredible experience!

I absolutely loved my experience at Corrèze the guest house! Sam and James welcome you in like family, so you can't help but to feel excited to help out. You are in the country side, so this is definitely an experience to connect with nature and enjoy the simple things in life. You are expecting to help out with breakfast and dinner service for guests, simple tasks around the house, and some cleaning. Sam is respectful of the exchange and you have about 5-6 hours of free time a day. I enjoyed learning new skills like foraging for mushrooms and working in the garden. Thanks Sam and James<3
