Le Délice Ultra-Trail update

We’ve live music again this evening. Anna and Ellie, AKA My Strange Mate, are back playing on our terrace this evening from 7 – 10pm.
This return of summery weather is perfectly timed for today’s sunny terrace action but the predicted return of the rain tomorrow does not bode well for spectators of the Ultra-Trail. [...]

Winter, sorry I mean mid-August, update!

What the brrr happened?? It feels like winter is coming early. Afternoon rushes of marshmallow topped hot chocolates has memories of busy après skis flooding back. I don’t know about anyone else but this is certainly not what I ordered!
Never fear though, my British mentality and blind optimism means we’ll still be putting on some [...]

Tandem discovery parapente flights

Having spent the weekend at a music festival sporting angel wings it all felt extremely appropriate and magical. What a fantastic way to start your day, an altogether different angle to see the valley floor and [...]

We’ve made one or [...]

Summer Opening Update 2010

We’re back and raring to go. After 4 weeks of calm it’s lovely to see the place buzzing with activity again. Colonel paint (aka my mother) has been beavering away potting plants and generally beautifying the place, in such a thorough way that only mothers seem to execute. Great smells are wafting out of the [...]
