About the host
Hosted by David & Christina Laycock
Our French life began in December 2018 when we embarked on a total renovation of the property. We followed our hearts to begin a 25 year dream. We renovated our hearts out for 18 months bringing the property and land back to life after years of neglect. It has been an epic adventure and pushed us in every possible way, but brilliant fun too. We have been fortunate to have travelled the world, but always kept being pulled back to France and knew one day we would call it home.
Why they chose this property
The character, charm and idyllic location are a heavenly blend. With so much to do, explore and discover it's hard to tear yourself away. The wildlife is incredible and can be observed from the garden and pool terrace. A particular favourite is the crane migration which happens twice a year, spring and autumn. A truly majestic sight with hundreds of birds flying overhead for weeks.
