Fed up with life in the UK we moved to France for a new start. Left behind the private schooling, traffic jams and housing estates for a better quality of life. We now live in Brittany, France running gites (holiday cottages).

On June 21, the longest day of the year and the date of the summer solstice France celebrates the festival of music. There are free concerts and music in just about every city and town in France. It's free because the government pays.
So after a hard day at the office - still filling - I'm going into Dinan to sample the various bands and musicians tonight. Programme of Events in Dinan

These are our experiences of running a gite business in Brittany, France. A gite is the French equivalent of a country holiday cottage. French culture, language, taxes and bureaucracy. Find out about our gites using the links on the LHS. This is our fourth season (2006) and we are looking forward to the summer. Stories about the road to this point will be added in due course. Renovation nightmares, builders, stress, schooling etc. Stay tuned.
