This is the attic in Le Presbytere as we saw it in July 2006, N.B. the basins on the floor to collect the drips from the leaking ceiling. We always reckoned that this space was going to be our bedroom and….. finally….it is.

Nearly six years later we now have a section of the attic at last organised as the master bedroom- and as befits a couple of a certain age it is very simple – almost monastic- but we have our own bathroom with a huge bath (fit for large people) and all the trimmings , even a bidet, and (a luxury this) our own dressing room with a vast mirrored wardrobe.
We sleep there tonight for the first time ever.
Took a while.
