Our organic jams got onto all the top tables around the world. Now our eldest son does that and Nick and I have a small but perfectly formed Tearoom across the courtyard, where we organise breakfasts and brunches. All menus are homemade using ingredients from local small scale producers.
Recently opened an art gallery for people whose work we value(be it photographers, painters, sculptors, designers or any kind of artist in general). Our regular vernissages are becoming local events.
Film makers who have travelled the world, making films for mainstream companies as well as our own indie productions, we love watching films and series (also talking about them). We have a fine repertory of these. On the top floor there is a library, for the book lovers.
Needed a hand with the weeding, the casual veg plot, walking and feeding the animals and freshening up paintwork, outside and inside. The library could also use some organising. Two local cob-style horses to enjoy, two cheerful Jack Russell Terriers, a fat cat called Maude and a bunch of chickens.
Twenty minutes drive from huge clean sandy beaches. Great walks along the green pastures right next to home, lively local markets. Not recommended for nightlife other than owls, but possible forays to Le Touquet in season. English speaking family surrounded by northern French. From Le Touquet it's an easy trip if you want to hop to London, Paris and Brussels.
