Welcome to La Vieille Fromagerie

You’ve no doubt seen TV programmes, read books and magazines selling the dream of living in France and making a living from B&B and/or gites. Well. we were like everyone else thinking about it and then in February 2006 took the plunge and moved to Brux. Our new home is in the heart of Poitou Charente in sunny SW France.


That was 2 1/2 years ago, now we have a thriving 3 bedroomed B&B and also 3 beautiful, luxury gites. A lot of blood, sweat and tears and more money than we ever imagined or budgetted for have gone into creating our dream.
We still have more plans for developing our business and you will be able to read about them here first!

Hi Dougie & Janet, what a good way of keeping in touch. It made us feel quite 'homesick' for the lovely time we had with you; we only wish we were coming back this summer - unfortunately the 'almost finished' extension has taken the place of a holiday! Ah well - hopefully next year. Love to you both.
