  Descripción

  We are a creative Canadian couple currently renovating a beautiful rural property in south of France. 1h30 away from Pyrenees and Spanish border, 2h from Atlantic 2h30 and Mediterranean coasts. We started the renovation 2 years ago, we changed the roof, we rendered the exterior walls and other works inside and outside. Now we are working at second floor: bedrooms walls and floors plus new washrooms. Currently we are using the original washroom and toilet. Location is great, we have 2ha of land, orchard, very dark and beautiful night sky, wildlife ranging from small rodents to deers and wild boars.

  Alojamiento

  We offer a bedroom in our house, washroom and toilet are downstairs, not yet renovated. We are enjoying a variety of cuisines, North American, European and Middle Eastern dishes.
  Barbecuing in the evening is both relaxing and entertaining. Sometimes if Narcisse isn’t too tired she can bake some delicious deserts; otherwise we’ll just have to settle for her charming company!
  In our orchard everyone is welcome to help themselves with a variety of fruits, including different types of figs, pears, apples, plums and grapes.
  We eat together breakfast, lunch and dinner and we like to socialize with our guests most evenings, you are also welcome to do your own things.
