Happy New Year to all

Door Teresa | Uitgegeven: Januari 13, 2013
A good start to 2013 all in all, can’t think of a better place to be than in Loire Atlantique. Even on the dreariest day there something to do. The weather hasn’t been conducive to long country or canal walks as the rain has left us up to our ears in mud, but [...]

Very lazy Christmas in Loire Atlantique

Door Teresa | Uitgegeven: December 29, 2012
This year has probably been the lowest keyed Christmas in Loire Alantique we’ve ever experienced, Between the weather, funds (or rather lack of them) and lack of family to hand, it looked like a good time to just go into hibernation mode.

Home sweet home

East, West, Loire Atlantique’s best… much as I love returning to the UK to visit family and friends I always feel a deep sense of well being and contentment as soon as

Gardens

Door Teresa | Uitgegeven: Juni 10, 2012
The first w/e in June is France’s open gardens weekend and Loire Atlantique has plenty to see but from spring to autumn I do my best to ensure that my garden has plenty of colour for our guests to enjoy. This year I cleared the central border from all the invasive bullies that had smothered [...]

Guémené Penfao’s pallet king does it again!

Door Teresa | Uitgegeven: Januari 27, 2012
It begs the question, are there enough pallets in Loire Atlantique to satisfy this creative man’s needs?

Just a quicky

Door Teresa | Uitgegeven: Januari 19, 2012
This is as cold as it got so far this winter in Guemene but not so cold as to affect our long suffering Mimosa tree. Over the years I have seen these lovely trees in full bloom in gardens all over our area but not ours – so far every year it’s been affected by frost, half [...]

Mid January Blues

Door Teresa | Uitgegeven: Januari 15, 2012
Even in the glorious Loire Atlantique you can get the January blues although this year there’s no logical reason for it as the weather has been so kind to us.

An amazing spring

Door Teresa | Uitgegeven: Kan 8, 2011
Perhaps Loire Atlantique could do with more rain as it’s been the hottest and dryest April on record but the garden’s produced some real beauties

Goodbye to a dear friend

Door Teresa | Uitgegeven: Maart 11, 2011
It is with great sadness that I write this as all those who met our cat Simba loved him as much as we did and he has left us. Perhaps this is not what is expected on a holiday website blog but it is a part of us and what we are about and many of [...]
