About Us
We moved, to what we believe to be the most beautiful region of France, from the South of England with our two flatcoat retrievers.
We are continuing to renovate this historic location with help from our friends and family. Our four grown up children are based in the UK and visit often. We have made this place our home and truly love it here.
We look forward to welcoming you and we're sure you will feel the same.
Patrick and Jacqueline.
