Come Up and See Me Sometime

I think the biggest pleasure in writing any blog like this , perhaps in writing anything, is getting feedback and comments from readers . A lot of my stuff is about our life and experiences in living in the South of France and the reasons why we moved from the UK nearly 20 years ago. Many of the things I say are replies to questions I get and I often publish these to help others.

When we moved to the Languedoc, we adapted a large rambling old ruin in the village of Nizas and to help pay some bills made two apartments for vacation rentals. Over the five years we did this we made a lot of new friends and we now plan do a similar thing with our home in Montblanc and expect this to be sorted out for next year, so book now.

Luckily a lot of readers do come to our area and some ask me for information, often about finding a home or starting a business - I am happy to do this, so if you are in Languedoc drop me a line.

Dear Tony,

We were considering coming to your area this coming weekend…not quite decided yet, but if we do, would you be able to meet for a drink or something. Maybe we could pick your brain a bit, or just get to meet the person who has helped us a lot!
Also, if you can suggest a chambre d’hotes or a hotel in the area…
Best regards, Maryvonne

Hello Maryvonne,

I would be delighted to meet when you are in the area - I suggest Pezenas on Saturday which is a big open market and if you have not been before you can discover the old medieval city.

Next year we plan to open our own guest house, but there are several excellent places near here to stay - in Pezenas there is..

Hotelde Vigniamont tell Rob and Tracy I recommended them (I may get a free drink)

or a smaller place is La Dordine both are in the old town and charming.

A bit further out, but very special is Le Couvent which is one of the best in France according to the Sunday Times.

My phone numbers are in my signature at the end of this mail - call me when you are nearby, I look forward to a coffee (or glass of wine at sundown) - what is left of my brain is happy to be picked.

Best wishes

Tony
