Domaine in Provence, vinyard

I am sorry that you are so unhappy with our villa. In the 10 years that we have been renting, we have only had praise for our safe Haven. Our neighbor who lives in a modest home on his family land is, however, very kind and monitors our property in the same way as our other neighbors. It’s reassuring to have neighbors like that. His home is more of a caravan, but it is not visible from the land you are renting. Which is well demonstrated in your photo. For the cracks in the shed adjoining the house, they are the result of 4 very hot and dry summers in the south of France with problems of lack of water. It’s the shed that’s sagging, not the house.This shed is private, locked, and therefore safe. "Regarding the roof infested with black rats": the house is built with a concrete frame and has no under roof. So no animals can enter. I have the land checked by an expert every 2 years. This one sets traps and he has never caught anything. Yesterday you told me about rats poo. The excrement that you photographed comes from small lizards from Provence. They are clean and very useful because they eat insects. The photos you show me prove that there was wind which brought dust into the pool. The heat pump cannot cope with the wind. This pump is used to heat the pool in May and June and to extend it in September. We are stopping it in July and August because it is too hot and the pool could develop baterias. It is cleaned every Friday by a certified company. I see from your photos that the flotation level mark is soiled by your predecessors' sun creams. It must have been hot with lots of sunshine this summer. We repaint this every year in winter. The wall you are talking about is flush with the water and is very easy to see. I am sorry for the accident of your partially sighted daughter. Some chairs seem damaged, you teach me. We have a number of 10. I will take stock this winter, like every year, of the equipment to be changed. Once again, I am disappointed that our country house did not bring you satisfaction. We like this house, and expect to retire there in few years. I would have liked to know before your stay about your wishes and your family problems, you never told me anything about that. (Except after your stay for asking a total refund.) The lesson I will learn is to have more direct contact with my future tenants before their stay to make sure if the house will give satifaction.

Je vous remercie, il est vrai que j’ai eu le coup de foudre pour l’emplacement. Le chemin est assez typique des chemins provençaux, je vais préciser qu'il est pentu. Je suis désolée pour la piscine, mais comme je vous l’avais dit, en avril les nuits sont encore fraîches. La pompe à chaleur n’est pas efficace dans dans ces conditions, c'est pourquoi nous l'utilisons à partir de mai. Pour la machine à café, il ne faut pas hésiter à demander au concierge, il a tout pouvoir pour racheter le matériel qui tombe en panne. Cette semaine, j'ai pu utiliser les deux machines (Senseo et normale). Je vous souhaite un bel été.
