Barbara’s first dinner at La Balie, after her first adventure in the paddock with Saphira, discovering the sheep, Annette the donkey and the pony she finally worked up an appetite.
At first she only ate from my hand, but then as she got more confident she polished off the rest of the Bowl Cecile had prepared for her!#labaliefrance
Autumn waking up at La Balie is special, the sunrises and sunsets frame the day of autumn light and colours. The markets bring you chanterelles and trumpets de la mort, chestnuts and autumn tomatoes fit for an impressionist painting. Breakfast is a real feast representing the countryside and season! #labaliefrance
Two hairs boxing, #labaliefrance
Great to have the M F to cut the Mauvaises herbes and grass at #labaliefrance
As I cycle my bike through the beautiful rolling countryside of the Lot et Garonne, I can’t help but wonder whether Vincent van Gogh was inspired by the regions sunflowers #labaliefrance
Village Nightlife in the Lot et Garonne where the villagers gather in the square to enjoy food and wine provided by the local artisans, often with live music! #labaliefrance
This morning at #labaliefrance all is quiet and you will be glad to know the babies have flown the nest successfully leaving just one unhatched egg behind!!
It’s all go at #labaliefrance ! I’ve put this little one back in his nest a few times today, hopefully he’ll get the hang of flying soon!
Spring is here the long winter days are receding to the sun and #labaliefrance is coming alive for another season. We still have week available for your retreat or generational family or group holiday!
Dreaming starts when you wake up at #labaliefrance
