My French Farm!

At last I can post some pix of hte great furrever home I have bought in Normandy, France. I hope we will all be moving there this summer! It is a stone house attached to a barn, that needs the wood cladding removed and some work inside to provide 4 bedrooms and two bathrooms, two large fields and an orchard, all on a hillside above a river valley and accessed only by a small road. But it is only 7 minutes by car from the nearest shops etc, so not too isolated.

oh its so beautiful! can i come visit for holidays?

Lovely!
But i couldnt live out in the farm i get too scared!

All TCS members will be welcome to come whenever they want. Apart from the house/barn complex there is another old barn (not shown) that I am going to do up as a guest cottage/summer rental, so I have loads of space! There is horse riding, kayaking and rock climbing only minutes away, and I am only 30 minutes from the coast.

TCS reunion at Jenny's !!

It's so pretty. I bet you are soooo excited!!!

Jenny it looks perfect and Normandy is such a lovely area. I bet you can't wait.

Oh wow that is so beautiful! I wanna visit too!

What a WONDERFUL old stone house! Everything around here is so darn soulless and new. I know you can't wait!

Congratulations! You must be so excited it is beautiful.

I swear I was just wondering about your farm, it's been quite awhile since you've mentioned it. It really is lovely!

Your new home is gorgeous!!! You're very lucky! I love the updated pic of Persil in your siggy, too!

Gosh - this looks lovely. What region of France is it? We're not far from the French border....

Oops - just saw you said Normandy... a bit far from us to pop in for afternoon tea

Good luck with the move - it sounds great.

I agree, ALexa! But it is in the part of Normandy called La Suisse Normande because it is hilly and dotted with little farms and wooden houses. It is really beautiful and peaceful. Here are another couple of pix - the river Orne in the valley and the view through (my) living room door!

Jenny, it looks wonderful! I agree with Chris - TCS party at Jenny's!

And the new pics of the girls! Persil is getting so big -and beautiful! What is Dushka sitting in? (Jasper misses talking to them in his thread in Paws and Reflect).
