I set myself the challenge to restore the ancient barn wall in one week and I did it. Was it an absolutely mammoth job to complete alone? Yes. Was it worth it? Absolutely. We're really hoping to have this barn restored by the end of the summer so we can relax and entertain under it. It has so much potential. It's a huge space that has been neglected for a long time. The wall was not in good shape but now that it has been sympathetically repointed using lime mortar it should stand for a long time. Of course, there is still the other side to do. Next up will be replacing the end beams!

_______________________________________

Welcome to Living in the Loire, we are a family in rural France, renovating previously poorly converted barns.

We aim to do most of the work ourselves, being as frugal and as eco as possible. We are learning on the job and we hope to share the skills we pick up along the way.

When possible we will take you on a tour of the region (the garden of France) sharing with you the numerous chateaux, towns and markets.

As well as the house we will be transforming the garden, bringing part of it back to its previous use as a potager. This is our dream and one of the main reasons of leaving the city to move to the countryside in France.

Join us on our journey!
