Owner profile
About the owner
I live in England with my husband, two children, and our dog 'Trouble'. We have had several very happy holidays in France and all love the sense of freedom and tranquility the house offers. We are regularly joined by friends and their children during our stay at the house as there is plenty of room for us all and we can even find a quiet corner if needed.
Year purchased: 1992
Why the owner chose a home in this location
We bought the house originally as an escape from the noise and bustle of living and working in London. We have enjoyed getting to know the area and exploring the beaches, medieval towns, forests and countryside generally. During the summer there is always something going on in the towns and villages including festivals, open air concerts, and various fairs.
Unique benefits of the property
A local tradesman delivering something to the house complimented us on our 'very pretty house'. We have tried to maintain it's rustic character and provide a comfortable and modern setting to make all visitors feel at home. We hope that all our visitors enjoy their stay at the house.
