Owner profile
About the owner
I'm a journalist. I've lived most of my life outside the UK. I get to our house in Provence whenever we can.
Why the owner chose a home in this location
We bought the house after coming to a friend's wedding nearby. We loved the area and when we saw the house we loved the house. It's easy to get to but a very special feeling of peace when you're there. In Asia they would say the feng shui is just right.
