Very excited (and darned nervous) to see ourselves on Channel 4’s A New Life In The Sun this afternoon. 🫣

East, West, Home is best! We’ve just returned from a 10-day trip to visit my parents in California. It was wonderful to see friends and family, especially after three years, but we have to say…there’s no place like home!

And we’d love to welcome you to our home, where we’ve converted our B&B to a guest cottage. You can catch all the details this Monday, 27 of February, at 4pm on Channel 4’s

And a huge thank you to for looking after our home and menagerie whilst we were away! ❤️🙏

Zipping into autumn already?! Where did summer 2022 go? Well, when we weren’t discovering the wonderful, family-friendly activities just 30 minutes from our doorstep (pictured: one of the children’s zip lines at Abbaye de Fontdouce, inflatable amusement park at Île de Grenouillette) we were finishing converting our B&B to a gite. Biggest project: the pool, namely Alastair tiling in 41C heat (106F!) to finish just in time for our guests’ arrival. As you can see from the last video, someone else loved having the pool done! 🤣

Our welcome team is ready for you! We are happy to announce our new website is now live for bookings as we re-open 1st July after having closed the B&B at the end of last year.

We now have a lovely 4-bedroom, self-catering guest cottage ready for weekly rentals in July/August and stays of 3+ days in other months.

While we were blessed with amazing guests these past two years, we found that running a B&B left us no time as a family - which was one of the biggest drivers behind our move to France. We hope you’ll check out Version 2.0 of La Maison du Petit Jacques on our new website…and in person!!

After a busy summer season with our B&B, we finally closed our doors and headed for the beach!

Our summer was super-charged not only with wonderful guests, but also with a bountiful harvest from our garden and orchard, resulting in half a dozen plum tarts, plenty of jams for next year’s guests, and about a hundred variations of zucchini bread! 🤣. Somehow, despite all those baked goods, James managed to keep his bikini body 🕶🩲😂

Despite terrible April frosts which wiped out our peaches and cherries, our purple plum tree keeps on giving. This is the second plum tart I’ve made this week. (I’ve also made two batches of plum jam, but the French butter is so good I just can’t resist a homemade short crust pastry!). Next up: the mountain of courgettes (that’s zucchini to us Americans) to turn into baked goods before they become the size of baseball/cricket bats. Any and all recipes appreciated!

Officially mat Pilates certified and soon to be reformer certified! In addition to group and private yoga lessons, we now offer private mat Pilates and, starting in June, 1-to-1 reformer sessions. When we purchased La Maison, we always hoped it would be a retreat for rest and wellness, as well as a perfect location for French food and wine enthusiasts. For those looking for a yoga, Pilates, and/or cycling getaway, please keep us in mind! 😊
