Countryside near CHAMBORD, France
 
We live in center of France, about 2 hours drive from Paris, in a region called Loire Valley.
This is a typical region, in countryside, plenty of History of France (Royal Castles like Chambord or Blois), and also famous for its variety of wines.
Our home is an old farm that we renovated (and still some job to do...).
The main house, where we live, is composed of 2 floors.
On the main floor we have a great place for reading, playing piano, watching movies in family, kids playing with all their toys, and 1 bedroom.
We love to take time for cooking on the stove.
Upstairs, on the first floor, there are 3 bedrooms.
All around the house, we have a yard (about  8Ha), we like to have walks on paths that surrounds it.
On sunny days, what  lovely times we have, having barbecue near the apple tree...nice and quiet place.
Summer times are really fun at our place : kids playing in swimming pool, in the Pirate wooden cabin, trampoo, swinging.
We've got a cat, called "Mummy Cat"!
