Maison Du Rocher

We are a family house that operates a Bed&Breakfast, an adventure park with unusual accommodations and activities/sports. We are immersed in nature, in a Forest surrounded by trees, rock climbing and possibilities to practice different kinds of sports. Just 1 hour by train from Paris.

La Maison Du Rocher De Fontainebleau is a company so you need to have a working visa or a European passport to apply as we will deliver you a official contract during your stay. So in fact you will get some symbolic payment.


Here is definitely a lifestyle choice where you will have two different experiences:

The first is related to involvement with the guests. They are here for various purposes, including team meetings, sports coaching, birthdays, bouldering in the forest and family/friends/couple vacations.

However, it's focused in a mutual exchange of ideas, culture, and stories. You greet the guests, share meals, participate in sports, activities and chat with them during the stay.

The other is your involvement with the other members of the team or Family. You will have the opportunity to meet people from many cultures all over the world, who speak a variety of languages (English being the universal language). You will spend most of your time here, living, helping and experiencing together with the other ones. They will become family and you will learn so much from each and every one.

Basically we prepare the place for guests to share the moments with them during their stay.

- Handyman services. Ex: gardening, carpentry, painting, general maintenance, electrics, etc.

- Cleaning and Housekeeping. Ex: Cleaning common areas in the house, Laundry, preparing the accommodations for the guests.

- Kitchen hand. Ex: Dishes, help with cooking, setting the tables, storage the food, grocery shops...

Welcome to the Maison Du Rocher!

Depending of your experience and motivation we share the tasks between the team. But globally your stay will be focus to your speciality. We will be available to help, inform and support you in all your doubts about how to do the tasks!

La experiencia con el host fue complicada y poco positiva. Había muy mala organización de las tareas y los horarios eran excesivamente largos. Se habían acordado 3 comidas diarias, pero solo se servía una y las otras debíamos prepararlas nosotros, algo que nunca se mencionó antes. Además, el host no asumía las tareas básicas de organización que le correspondían, delegándolas a los voluntarios. Lo único realmente valioso fue la convivencia con los demás voluntarios, quienes con su gran comida y energía hicieron más llevadera esta experiencia. NO LA RECOMIENDO, FUE UNA EXPERIENCIA INJUSTA 😣

The reason why I give 2 stars to this experience, the host Stéphane is very rude on the way he speaks to you, he made it clear since day 1 that people here come to learn and that it may be required to work more hours some days. He even threatened a nother volunteer who told him he had work 5 hrs already saying he could leave if he doesn't like it. Once he sent me a message asking me to leave his place because he didn't see me working that day, which I did from 7am to 1pm, he assumed something instead of asking me or the guys that assigned the tasks for the volunteers. He has no sense of tact.

La verdad no recomiendo, no por las tareas en sí (que si requieren de un gran trabajo físico y poca protección que arriesga tu integridad por un semi-plato de comida y condiciones de vida deplorables) sino por el trato poco dignificante que se le da a lxs voluntarixs, desde hacer que coman retraídxs en la casa a oscuras hasta que se le despojen de las pocas cosas a las que teníamos acceso (TV, refri, etc). El dueño es una persona tacaña que sólo busca quien haga el mayor trabajo por la menor cantidad posible de inversión y ni siquiera tiene el interés de conocer a quienes viven bajo su techo.

no lo recomendaria como voluntariado
realmente
El trabajo me pareció re pesado y no está bien claro el tema de las comidas, a veces generó roces
También la organización de las horas, es probable que trabajes una hora de la mañana dos horas a mitad de mañana y otras tres horas a la tarde con lo cual de repente estás trabajando desde las 7:30 de la mañana hasta las cuatro de la tarde con muchas pausas en el medio, y eso a mí no me gustó
los otros voluntarios un 10, es lo que salva el lugar

Unfortunately, the assigned tasks were not performed satisfactorily, even simple ones like cleaning bathrooms and washing dishes. Several attempts were made to reassign her, but without success. We believe the best option is to assign her only very simple and clear tasks.

We provide 3 meals per day: lunch is made by the hotel kitchen, and the other meals are prepared by the volunteers.

It’s a place I always want to return to. Nice people, relaxed work, and a lot of fun.
