Descripción
Hello - We moved to South West France 14 years ago now.
We live in an old farm house with 7 acres off meadow. There is a pond, pigeonnier and barns. The house sits within the beautiful, peaceful French landscape.
On going projects : vegetable garden, flower garden, and renovating the large roof space into more bedrooms.
We have two dogs, a cat and one chicken.
This part of France has many medieval bastide towns to visit .
It is always good to meet new people. Sharing work ,food, wine and conversation.
We can pickup from the local train station or airport ( Bergerac) . But having your transport ideal - then you will be able to explore independently .

I spent a month with Anne and Fitz. Both of them are excellent cooks. During my time there, we did a lot of decluttering and put down new gravel in the courtyard.

Having great organizational skills - we cleared a large loft space - sorting fabrics and various things into different categories. Saoirse had a sensible approach and aided myself in clearing a space ready for a studio / workshop room to be developed in the loft of the house.

Boon shared winter with us.
Boon was a great help and was quick to learn . During his stay a large room was painted , boon tackled the high ceiling - it was a difficult job , and the end result was great.
Boon is a polite and respectful man , he was a pleasure to be with.

Jon was a great Viking to meet! He did brilliant work on the roof of the barn. We hope one day our paths will cross again in the lovely Lot et Garonne. It was great meeting both Jon and Daniella this summer. We enjoyed our meals together, its great to cook for people who appreciate the food. Best wishes, Ann & Fitz
