Nestled just inside the national park of the Haut Languedoc lies the picturesque village of Hérépian. Here Garrigae has lovingly transformed a 17th Century convent into a superb luxury boutique hotel residence. At Le Couvent you will discover an idyllic retreat where authenticity, quality,intimacy and comfort permeate throughout - a place where 17th Century charm meets 21st Century luxury.

Can anyone recommend a handyman/electrician in the central Montpellier area? I have a number of minor jobs with which I will need help including installation of wall lights, installation of a double curtain pole and a small repair to the plasterwork. I will be in France from the second week of December onwards.

How does one normally pay a handyman? Through the chèque-emploi system?

Thank you for any advice.
