Boulangerie ~ Chambre avec petit dejeuner

This is the quaint and charming place we stayed for two wonderful nights in the little hamlet of Le Ven Vertheuil.
Originally the stone building was built in 1850 and was the Boulangerie.
Each room has French antiques and views across the road of the nearby 12th century abbey and church.
The church bells tolled out every hour, and then at 7am, rang out about 50 times, sort of like an alarm clock for the village folk, to rise and shine!



Grande Chambre, the upstairs bedroom we choose, as we were the only guests staying there at the time
A chair to sit and relax in, with a book or to have a chat
Most hamlets in France, no matter how small, has a Boulangerie {Bakery}
Our host Bernard would get up early and have hot croissants, baguettes and pastries waiting on the table, for us to have with our morning cup of coffee.

Best wishes to all, for a fabulous week
Hugs
