I live in an old farm house with 7 acres off meadow. There is a pond, pigeonnier and barns.
On going projects : vegetable garden, flower garden, and renovating the large roof space into more bedrooms.

This is a beautiful rural area, with many medieval bastide villages nearby.
We have bikes and Wi-Fi available. Smoking ok as long as it is outside. We love food and wine and would enjoy introducing you to the local cuisine, at present we get most of our vegetables etc from our local market. We are aiming to grow as many fruits, vegetables and herbs as possible in the near future.
Our nearest airport is Bergerac (1 hour away), there are many low cost flights available from the UK. We could pick you up from the airport.
