  Description

  We are a married British couple in our early 60s, living a peaceful rural life in central France, around 1.5 hours north-east of Limoges. We live in a beautiful converted barn and house set on 8 acres of land, surrounded by countryside and calm.
  
  Our little family includes four horses, two friendly Cockapoos, one very fat ginger cat, and one elderly tabby who mostly supervises 🐾
  
  This is very much a shared project — helping together, taking breaks, and enjoying the process.
