My stay at Chateau La Touanne was absolutely incredible. The property is beautiful and if you're looking to immerse yourself in nature this is the place for you! Christine and Nicholas were great hosts, they were clear about the tasks and great at explaining how to properly do the job. The work hours were always respected. There is the possibility on your free day to explore the surrounding towns to learn even more about France and its culture. The chateau is very pretty and you will stay on the volunteers side of the castle where you will have everything you need to live comfortably.

Mi experiencia en el castillo fue algo que nunca olvidaré, el lugar es hermoso, todo lleno de naturaleza, muy cerca de la estación que conecta a varios pueblitos muy lindos de Francia, las tareas son fáciles y rutinarias, se trabajan de 4-5 horas al día, básicamente las tareas son limpiar las habitaciones y de jardinería, el lugar para los voluntarios está en proceso de renovación y no hay conexión de internet en esa zona sin embargo del otro lado del castillo contactamos con una sala con wifi. Christine y Nicolás son muy amables y chistosos, aprendí de la cultura francesas

The place is beautiful, full of charm and surrounded by nature, with a peaceful and inspiring atmosphere. The tasks were fair and well-organized. The food was delicious, made with care and always shared at the table, turning each meal into a warm and great moment. But what made this experience truly unforgettable were the hosts, Christine and Nicolas. They are incredibly kind, welcoming, and generous people. This was so much more than a work exchange, it was a meaningful and memorable experience! I highly recommend it!

I felt so lucky to live this experience! The castle is beautiful and charming. The area around is green and cool to explore. Christine and Nicolas were great hosts, super caring and checking on us to see if we are okay with the tasks and with everything else. I learned so many new things, and I really enjoyed the work, even when we passed a bit of the time which was fine when the work were light or fun. Christine is a great cook and she made so many delicious meals to us, I felt like part of French family routine in there. On our days off they always drive us to the city to explore around.

La Touanne was my first volunteering experience and it is something I will always be grateful for. The hospitality of Christine and Nicolas is amazing, they are incredibly warm and sharing lovely French meals with them and the other volunteers was lovely. The castle is beautiful and surrounded by nature. The work is well varied, it ranged from gardening, painting, cleaning the guest rooms, or help with preparing the cooking. Christine is always around to help or specify what to do and the hours were split between the morning and the evening so it goes by quickly. Thank you !

My experience in La Touanne was fantastic, Nicolas and Christine are very kind, very good family, they made me feel at home. It's a wonderful place, the nature, the château, everything is beautiful. It's far from the city, so on days off they drop me at the train station and I can visit the cities around. The work is very well explained and the hours are respected. I learn a lot about the french culture and language. I will be eternally grateful for them.

My stay in La Touanne, in this magical place, was instructive and unforgettably beautiful. Christine and Nicolas are very warm, interested and inspiring people. We always had a good chat over delicious food. I really enjoyed working every day in such a historic place with varied tasks. If you want to learn about the French language and culture, be in nature and face the challenges of being a chambermaid, this is the place for you. I am very grateful to have spent 3 wonderful weeks there. Merci.

Christine and Nicholas are wonderful hosts who've put a lot of effort into running the château and have welcomed many volunteers. Morning work involved cleaning guest rooms and bathrooms, while evening tasks included things like gardening, house projects, and cooking. We shared meals and were expected to set the table and clean up afterwards. Christine does the cooking and I loved learning from her! My room was spacious and beautiful. On days off, Nicholas kindly drove me to the train station and shared great recommendations. We all shared stories and laughs—I enjoyed my time! Merci!

My experience at Chateau La Touanne was amazing. The place is beautiful, has a private forest, a large garden and a pool we could use before check-ins everyday. I had such a nice and comfortable room with its own bathroom and great view. The work was also quite manageable, plus Christine and Nicola are always available around when you need to ask something.Together that we had lunch and dinner everyday, the food, the wine and cheese was incredible. During my stay I met 2 other great volunteers, also their son and daughter who came visiting. It was such a blessing overall, highly recommended!

I really recommend this place. Nicola and Christine were very welcoming since the beginning, we all shared meals and lovely conversations. The work it's easy and they're helping you with everything. For me the best thing was the location. The only sounds you can hear is from the wind and birds, very interesting way to live :)
