Ask a questionAbout Susie & James Wetton
We are James & Susie Wetton, we met whilst working in the Savoie region of France and always dreamed of living here. We both did several ski seasons working for UK ski operators. Since then we moved back to the UK had a family and worked, lived in London, Essex and Bedfordshire. James in Global Outsourcing and I have worked in the fitness industry as a Pilates teacher and Personal trainer. We love entertaining guests, food, language and everything about the french lifestyle. Our aim with Le Pignoulet is to offer our guests an unforgettable home from home experience.
Susie & James Wetton purchased this Farmhouse in 2016
Why Susie & James Wetton chose Ladeveze-Riviere
We bought this property from James' parents who have owned the house since 2000. We loved the house so much as we have been holidaying here for 17 years that when they came to sell we decided to see if we could find a way to keep it - so now we are owners of our very own little corner of Gascony!
What makes this Farmhouse unique
The house has a really gorgeous feel to it, you will love it's location in a tiny hamlet, surrounded by farmland and rolling hills. Views over the Pyrenees are stunning and the sheer peace and tranquility of the location offer you instant relaxation. Inside the house has plenty of space even when it is at capacity, it has a huge kitchen and two lovely living rooms as well as masses of outdoor space to find quiet, to make noise, to read, play games etc. The pool to the rear of the house gives maximum privacy, and gardens front and side offer plenty of space to relax and enjoy your surroundings. The house is equipped as we would equip our own home - so we hope you will have everything you need to enjoy a perfect holiday.
