Pet Friendly Chambres d'Hotes

We still have a few free nights for B and B guests in August.
La Verderie is situated 12km from the A10, a perfect stopping off point if you are heading for the South of France and pet dogs are very welcome! Visit the website here or email Sue to check availability.

Bix's Birthday

Bix the dog was 11 yesterday, which according the chart in our vets means he is 105 in dog years as large dogs age quicker than the standard 7 years to 1 of ours. Anyway he looks pretty good for it and had a good long walk through the woods with his dog club mates.

I managed to get the final samples for my latest book in the post on Monday, which was deadline day. It is so lovely to be able to relax a bit for the first time in the last 7 months. I am now on a major blitz on the house and sorting out the stock for Kangaroo. We have had b&b guests for two nights this week, which was great, hopefully with the lovely weather and Easter approaching there will be more bookings soon.

At last the b&b is up and running!

The double bedroom with ensuite shower on the ground floor is ready to let and we have had our first paying guest this week. Bookings can be made on-line at Kangaroo but please email sue@kangaroo.uk.com first to check availability or call us on +33 (0)5 46 94 08 53.

Situated between St Jean d'Angely, Cognac and Saintes we are the perfect stopping off point if you are heading South, just 17 kms off the A10. Or come and relax in a peaceful rural setting for a few days and explore the surrounding countryside by bicycle or on foot. Evening meals can be provided on request and we are dog friendly so well behaved four legged friends are very welcome.
