Stephen & Madeleine Kear's Holiday Gites In France

After Stephen's exhausting years and demanding schedules as a violinist in the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra we left it all behind us to run idyllic gites in the Gartempe Valley, La Vienne, France.

The Mechoui of 'Antigny'

Preparing the 'Brochettes'


Antigny's mechoui started at around 10am with villagers arriving to eat the marinaded brochettes. While the succulent lamb was being spit roasted people gathered round the drinks tents to catch up. By one o'clock the meal was ready - the meat superb as usual. A relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. We completed the day with a visit to Antigny's Gallo Roman Musuem.
