    Vous aimerez faire du vélo dans le Limousin!

    July 22, 2018

    I can't believe it's two years since the Tour de France visited this bit of France. But the Limousin has so many permanent links to 'La Boucle' - it's the home of Raymond Poulidor, and Greg Lemond won a 46km on our back door step in the 1985 46km time trial at Lac de V...

    One benefit of having an energetic dog is you get dragged into the stunning French countryside everyday at dawn and dusk! So I can definitely say I heard my first cuckoo on Wednesday 4th April. I'm going to keep a note of it to see if it alters with each year and see i...

    Our fourth Christmas in France and by far the best. No snow this time (it came two weeks early!) but merriment, mulled wine and misteltoe aplenty. A very merry Christmas to all our family, friends and especially folks who have stayed with us at our B&B this year.

    A warm...
