1 Jun 2006 - Casa Bonita


The front of the house is the least impressive. It also requires a lot of work. The garden needs sorting out, but not sure what to do yet. We look at the other gardens along the road for inspiration. We plan to have a wall along the front eventually.




The main bedroom. The extension to provide the wargames room also left us with a long bedroom. It looks pretty bare at present, but we plan to add some colour with pictures and curtains.

The sitting room. Very open plan, and will be difficult to heat in the winter. We are looking for a log fire for the fire place before the winter arrives. Its one of the coolest rooms in the house, and always much cooler than outside, both winter and summer.



The water has been much too cold to tempt us to have a swim yet. Some of the neighbours have been in, they are obviously much hardier than Jan and I. But no doubt as the temperature climbs we will spend a lot of time in there.



The Naya, my favourite part of the house. Since we arrived we have eaten breakfast here, even if we had to wrap up to do so. Now that it is warmer we eat all of our meals out here. We are looking for a nice barbecue to use here.


And this is the reason why the Naya is my favourite part of the house. There is always something going on in Parcent, and we sit for hours watching the slow pace of life. The mountain opposite is the Col de Rates, where we did the walk with the Parcent group last month.
