If you're coming to France to find your own place away from the rat race you will have hundreds of questions. Well, we can't promise to answer all of them, but we have over a number of years done some pretty serious building work ourselves, and have lived here permanently since 2003. We can talk knowledgeably on the French way of doing things including:

• the different types of planning permission.
• the regulations on building works & roofing.
• french plumbing, and electrical works.
• the requirements for a "fosse septic" (septic tanks for countryside dwellings).
• the importance of the local "Marie".
• the real costs
• and much more

Our lodges provide a peaceful place to relax and discuss in private what you have viewed, and being self catering provide the added experience of being able to check out the local shopping. You also don't have to worry about linen or towels or the basic necessities as these are provided - we have no hidden extras.

Use our knowledge to your advantage!
