  We have always lived rurally and like gardening and growing own vegetables
  We live in a small village near to Boulogne sur Gesse in a beautiful
  situation with views on the Pyrenees .we have a heated outdoor pool which we use for as much of the year as possible
  Paul smokes only outside and is trying to stop! So please no smokers
  We both enjoy wine and spirits and good mostly local food
