Living In The French Countryside
Having a holiday home in the French countryside is a wonderful thing and we experience at a grass-roots level all the best things about country life. We love experiencing the quiet drama of the changing seasons, fresh local produce and farm related activities such as harvesters and tractors regularly rolling through the narrow village streets. Traffic jams in our area are made up of herds of cows slowly crossing the street and the jovial gathering of the local farmers standing on the edge of the road enjoying their nightcap outside the nearby Tabac .
These are the benefits of living amongst the wheat fields, chicken farms and grazing cattle. However we have always understood that these surroundings can also be the perfect environment for mice, insects or other vermin to flourish.
