from The Gîte Podcast · host rupertspringfield
Sven and Sandra bought a house in the Dordogne as a second home, but soon hit upon the idea of running it as a gîte when they're not there. But does it still feel like a home now?! We talk about costs vs. investments, tv crews staying, joining the hunt, doing your own renovations, being the same target group as your guests, and how much money they made this year. Sven and Sandra has also given up their jobs to open more businesses connected to their gîte. https://maisonsaintblaise.com/ https://sandmarkers.com/gite/ https://www.giteguru.com/ https://lemasdordogne.com/
