Woodwork and building, baskets, prints, chopping boards, carp fishing holidays, a short or long break in the boathouse or studio; la maison in the Limousin region of France is a hive of activity:
In the bottom corner of the Haute Vienne on the border with the Dordogne and the Correze is where we live and work, in a small village called Glandon. Our patch is made up of 15 hectares of fields, a wood and a lake and although it might seem a million miles away from anywhere, with the help of the internet and the breaks we offer you can share it with us.
Take a look at our shop and news pages to see what’s going on. Look at our work on the portfolio page. If you are a keen carp angler then you’ll love the lake – Birch Water Carp Venue is a high quality, well stocked and jaw droppingly beautiful place to come.
For those more local to us, we have a purpose built workshop from where all sorts of woodwork and building projects come from.
Feel free to contact us to discuss any of the things that we’ve got going on.
