Hello, we are Louise and Ian and we have 2 lovely small dogs, Bosco and Enzo and 2 semi-wild cats Louis and Martha. We live in a 4 bedroom farmhouse 5 minutes from the local village where there is everything you will need. The dogs are small, one os old and needs cuddles and attention. The younger boy loves to run and run and run, especially chasing a ball! The cats can fend for themselves, but we always feed them when they come and ask - usually during the winter months.
The garden is fairly smmall, 1/4 of an acre or so and would need little other than watering and mowing in the summer months.
You would need a car as we only have the one at present.
The countryside around us is wonderful for walking or cycling. There arte plenty of lovely villages and the local town Angouleme is beautiful with markets and cafes.
The house is very comfortable. There is everything you would need incl. heating in the winter. There is a pool in the the summer (which would need some maintenance).
If you like the idea of house sitting when we are away, please let us know.
