Swimming in the lake



We all went swimming in the lake last week. Weather was scorching and the water was suprisingly warm. It was fairly quiet, the pedalos and boats were not out yet.


summer is here


What a difference a month makes. The colours are amazing, so much greenery. The flowers are all in full bloom, the trees are full of leaves and ......the grass is growing.....and getting cut...and growing...and getting cut...and on and on the cycle goes.


Summer is well and truly here, blue skies and the green of the forests around us...wonderful

Welcome to the Blog

Welcome to the first posting on our new Blog. We will try and update as often as we can to let you know what is going on and whats been happening in and around grandmont.

A busy weekend with the Les Gendarmes et Voleurs de Temps. The weather was scorching and well over 30 degrees on the day of the race. Everyone went up to the chapel to cheer on the exhausted runners. Apparently nearly 5000 entrants this year. http://www.gendarmes-et-voleurs.com/

Our Gites were all occupied over the weekend and everyone seemed to have a great time and made use of all the BBQs, the kids all seemed to enjoy volleyball. It was nice to see everyone making use of the gardens.

The pool is nearing completion and should be up and running within a few weeks....luxury.
