Our dogs had nearly an acre of countryside to play. They were so happy exploring. The cottage is gorgeous. The best night's sleep I have had in years. Solitude.

At night I marvelled at the millions of stars in the sky above.

I adore this cottage! It is so quiet and peaceful and the fresh air is invigorating. It is amazing.

Love the French decor!
