About this property

Haven of peace. 30 min from the beaches. Ideal for recharging your batteries.

Relax in this unique and quiet accommodation. Close your eyes and listen to the birds singing. A kingfisher will come to keep you company, moorhens hide in the brush along the river... Observe the river and the trees that surround it; all this will enchant you and make you want to draw, paint, read or write after a day of exploring the coast.

The Haven of Peace is an old house, it is the childhood home of Daniel Rigaux my father. His father Hyacinthe Rigaux returned from the 39-45 war. He had been taken prisoner. On their way back from the war, his wife Louisa and their son Daniel left the village tavern (see photo on the fireplace) to come and live in this house in which grandmother Marie Journey lived (see photo on the fireplace).
The Germans stayed in this village.
This house, you will sleep there.
The large slabs at the entrance are made of marble. They were placed by Hyacinthe because he was a stonemason at the quarries of Boulonnais.
The wooden chest is Daniel's soldier's suitcase when he was forced to fight in Algeria.
The red worker comes from the childhood home of Monique (Daniel's wife). His mother was a seamstress.
Daniel made the sideboard with his own hands because he worked for an uncle in a carpentry shop in Le Waast before leaving to work at the steel mills and foundries in Boulonnais.
The library table comes from Daniel and Monique's house (year 60).
The old pink knick-knacks come from Haycinthe and Louisa's house. The baby in their arms is my brother.
The air conditioning is done just by closing the shutters: the freshness is preserved.
In this house you will sleep and relax.
Enjoy it as much as I love it.PGJyPg
You see 2 houses. The main house is completely renovated. The washing machine and dryer is in a renovated stable.
The other house is being renovated.
All the land is available and we have embellished it with a working gas plancha, tables, chairs, ping pong table.
Be careful however with the river which is the start of the Slack; this river is 20.3 km long and ends in the town of Ambleteuse (62164).
