Summer brings long sunny lazy days and warm relaxing evenings.
The splash pools are in constant use and the air is filled with delicious smells of local produced food cooked to perfection and the barbeques are in daily use. The fields of sunflowers are a spectacular sight. The first broods of swallows are receiving flying lesson diving in and out of our barns.
There are fetes and night markets in the local towns and villages and the local attractions are in full swing. There's always plenty to see and do for everyone.
