Two kiwi girls in France.
Maison No 20 is the beautiful home and Boutique Chambres d'hotes of
the lovely Leeann, from Fabulously French. We spent two nights staying
here, at her very comfortable and tastefully decorated Maison, in a
quiet lane within the beautiful historic village. You can see Leeann's 'Fabulously French shop' which is the ground floor window on the left.
Indeed a top of my list destination and guest house.
Eymet is located in Dordogne in the Aquitaine region of France and it is such a picturesque place.
Here are a few of the photos taken around the quaint village.
As you can see from these historical buildings around the square, they had been built back in the Medieval times. We took this photo on our walk home from one of the many wonderful restaurants.
Hope that you are enjoying the weekend
Hugs
Carolyn

LA DORDOGNE is my absolute favorite place that we visited while in France! Sarlat, Domme and Marqueyssac are also WONDERFUL places to dream! CAROLYN dearest, HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!

Oooh, love seeing these snippets of your trips to France! I have not been to the Dordogne, but your post is my third reference to that local tonight.One of my former students was talking about how beautiful it was there, and then I got a newsletter from the Aquitaine , and now I read this enticing post!! I must go check it out!![ On the computer, that is...or should I just ...GO there??????? I Wish!!!]
Wonderful place..
Hi Carolyn. Sweet blessings to you. Enjoyed your post. The buildings are awesome.
Would be great fun to see in person. Really neat!

Dearest Carolyn,
Great that you got to meet Leeann from New Zealand! I've been to the Dordogne region decades ago... but it sure is pretty!
Lovely post and I end my day with it, after our wedding here in Toronto, Canada.
Love to you,
Mariette
What a pretty house and wonderful place, Carolyn. Don't just love the smell of French markets? For me that mixture of ham, salami, cheese and garlic is always mouth watering.
Have a great Sunday!

Oh Carolyn, it is just beautiful! Wish I was there.. Such beautiful photos..
Thank you so much for visiting and your kind words about Bebe and her friend.
Wishing you a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Blessings,
Penny
I thought I would pop by and say Hello. It was a nice surprise to see the photo of you and I :-)
It is still warm here which is odd for November. The christmas markets have just started and Guy and I are busy preparing for a couple that we are having a stand at. One is in a Chateau which is now a fab hotel so we are looking forward to this market in particular :-)
Bisous a deux, Leeann

How lovely for you two to meet up!
Leeann must have loved hosting another Kiwi - I can imagine the endless chatter - so much in common!
Aren't the markets wonderful, I always want to buy everything, sadly I have a little restraining shadow on my heels, who holds the purse LOL!!!!

What a beautiful old town to visit Carolyn. I have been to the Dordogne years ago, but can't really remember this town. Have you been to Sarlat too?
Wish you a happy new week!
Madelief
Absolutely lovely! I adore historical architecture. So beautiful. :)

How fun for you, and what a beautiful town. I will ask the girls if they've heard of it. They went to France a couple of years ago. Happy Thanksgiving, my sweet friend.
~Sheri at Red Rose Alley
Ah, this looks like a wonderful French town to visit. I love the Medieval buildings that have so much history.
You seem to visit some great places. I wonder if you will end up moving to France in the future! ;-)
I know a Kiwi couple who moved to the South of France to open up a B&B and vineyard.
Thank you for sharing. I will have to add this lovely place to my list!

Looks like a quiet little village. Loved the pics, they show that the place is not crowded and also its architecture is lovely.
Thanks for sharing. Have a fabulous week ahead:)
Ahh, France! My homeland. Your pictures capture so cleverly the essence of our country.
We too would like to have a Chambres d'Hôtes... with a gipsy caravan in the garden for extra bohemian guests.
Have a lovely week....
A bientôt,
