Owner profile

About the owner
As with most people who holiday in France, we loved the empty straight roads, making travelling a pleasure. We loved the countryside, which is very similar to Devon and Cornwall. The parks and gardens are so well kept. We also love the locally produced fresh vegetables, mostly home grown without the chemicals. If you look at the buildings, they are not polluted by endless traffic fumes making the stonework grey/black.
There is no rush here for any reason, which "makes every day a holiday!", to quote what most locals say.
We love the 2 hour lunches, usually 3/4 courses with wine included. The street market and the beaches are not overcrowded and everywhere there is space. The brocantes are fantastic places to buy old furniture and antiques. The only noisy time is Bastille Day.
Year purchased: 2009
