Vacation France; Les Parmeries Holiday Cottages Dordogne
Having spent the past 25 years in the luxury hospitality industry in Europe, the US, Middle East, and Asia, working with incredible people and amazing brands, Greg and Heather Ward decided it was time for a change and embarked on a two year search for something special. Having viewed multiple opportunities across many countries they discovered a 12 acre site known affectionately as Les Parmeries, tucked away down a long driveway in a magical location. Having found their perfect property, Greg and Heather then moved to the Dordogne Valley from Switzerland in 2022 and spent all of 2023 renovating and restoring Domaine Les Parmeries with a single purpose in mind, to provide an oasis of calm and relaxation with a true escape from the fast pace of life.
Following a year of renovations they are now delighted to offer three individually appointed cottages in France known as Gites, all with modern fully fitted kitchens and luxury bathrooms with their own outdoor space.
Each of the cottages can be individually booked for a minimum of seven nights. Alternatively a group of friends or family can benefit from an exclusive use experience taking over all three sleeping up to 12 guests. The exclusive use experience would also allow access for the group to the pizza oven (a fantastic evening experience) and bar area (called The Dog House), which has been created in a mini historic tower.
Other amenities for guests include a large heated swimming pool, assess to the entire 12 acre estate ideal for picnicking, exploring or simply relaxing under a tree or in a hammock.
Attractions nearby include canoe hire, bicycle hire, fishing, paragliding, hot air ballooning,food festivals, local town markets with hundreds of Chateau's and caves to explore.

Hyundai i10 the big small car!
Переглядів 1,1 тис.28 днів тому
The Hyundai i10 is one of the best small cars you can buy. It feels far more spacious than its rivals and is reassuringly economical. There is a decent choice of engine sizes and power outputs as well as manual and auto gearboxes to choose from. Thankfully the latest Hyundai i10, is a micro city car still powered by something other than an electric motor. The car comes in just one body style, a...

Honda Jazz proves size doesn't matter
Переглядів 4,2 тис.Місяць тому
This is the fourth-generation Honda Jazz which has the ability to switch between petrol and electric power to improve efficiency, in much the same way as the Toyota Yaris does. The petrol-electric hybrid system uses two electric motors, powered by a compact battery, working alongside a punchy but economical 1.5-litre petrol engine. There’s only one engine choice with the Honda Jazz, a 1.5-litre...

    Really helpful review which focused on the elements that are important to me. The Yaris Cross was on my shortlist and I think this has helped me make up my mind that this is going to be my next car.

    Handbooks are not a waste of space. We don't all rely on the Internet to do things. Just look at volvo, no handbook and everything is available on their infotainment. So when yo want to do something to the car, you have to go sit in it. How ridiculous!

    is it really affordable luxury? it starts at £69k and the audi q7 starts at 67.... Furthermore the q7 experiences less depreciation overtime and is well, an audi

    • @BillAC-
      @BillAC- 7 днів тому

      Whichever you prefer. Both are affordable in their own right with the offerings and 2k extra when at that level of money isn’t going to be a deal breaker for those in the market

    The lower screen is a touchpad, on which you can for example write the address for the navigation system. You would rest your wrist on the shifter and write with your finger. Great for the “normal” driving side, using your right hand. But what about the British people? Y’all left handed?
