For all our guest who visited us here near La Rochelle last year that saw the beginning of my re-building of the Barn, At last here it is (hurrah) just finished putting the roof on before the arrival of our summer guests this year. We have now received planning permission to make the barn into a gite so I will keep you posted on my progress as we will be offering it next year as a single bedroom gite with a sofa bed in the lounge and windows overlooking the fields on the other side, We are calling it the Pressoir (note the photo's before and after) as our neighbour the local farmer across the field lived here as a child and his father used the barn to press his grapes and ferment his wine, there is still an old stone vat in the ground.
