Fin de season


This is a sad time for us especially when it's been such a great summer here in the Tarn - wonderful weather and pleasant guests staying in our gites. Been a good season for bookings too, considering the eternal economic gloom and the World Footy and the London Olympics gluing so many folk to their sofas, zapper in one hand beer in the other.We were rescued by the foul UK summer and late bookings gave us a good end of season to compensate for a poor start. With early bookings and enquiries for 2013 being stronger than for several years, perhaps the biblical seven fat years are about to start.
