After several wonderful equestrian holidays in France, Chris and Lynda bought their first holiday home which enabled them to spend increasing amounts of time experiencing the hospitality of the people, the relaxing life style and enjoying good French food and wine.
In 2002, they decided that a complete lifestyle change was needed and the decision was made to move to France permanently. At first, Lynda’s daughter Tanya was not immediately convinced that she needed a lifestyle change, but she decided to accompany Chris & Lynda on their exploratory visit and - as we hope you will - she fell in love with Laumiere on first sight (or to be honest, the stable set-up, complete with mucking out machine!). The fact that the chateau came with them was a bonus!! |
Falling in love with the chateau was the easy part – then followed the rather painful experience of completing the purchase, but this was decidedly easier than transporting horses, family, belongings and five dogs to the South of France in November 2002!
Once settled, the fun was able to begin – setting up horse riding holidays at Laumiere! Your hosts, Lynda and Chris, with their passion for the chateau, the regional cuisine and lovely local wines, ensure you’ll enjoy a warm welcome and a wonderful holiday. And Tanya takes care of your horse riding. |
