  *** THE POSITION FOR 2025 HAS BEEN FILLED. We are potentially looking for a second person during July & August. Must speak excellent French! Details to be discussed***
  
  
  Hello!
  
  We're a French/English family living in a peaceful village in the beautiful Dordogne countryside.
  
  We run a small restaurant with rooms in our home, and are looking for an experienced, energetic, reliable and motivated waitress or waiter with a excellent level of both English and French, to support us during the busy summer period. (We may consider two people together, but the second person would only be needed in July & August and the hours would be less for this person).
  
  We live in the very beautiful, but very rural countryside, so it's important you like the outdoors, nature, walking etc and ideally have your own transport (for you to get around on your time off).
  
  If you think you could be a good fit, we would love to hear from you!
  
  Gemma, Raphaël, & 6-year-old Louis
