I
am English and
my wife, Cathy, is French.
I was a Psychology teacher for 17 years
in the UK, and Cathy was a Modern
Languages teacher for 13 years. We moved to France in 2004 to run a small gîte
business in the Vendée.
During
the past 4 years we have been renovating and improving
the accommodation and surroundings. We built a swimming pool in
2005 and finished the restoration of gîte 5 in 2006. We hope to
have gîte 6 finished for 2009.
Here
in France, Cathy
teaches French part-time to the local English residents,
and is involved in the running of the business. I am occupied with the
website, ongoing renovation and the running of business.
We
have 3 children; Elodie aged 15 and our twin boys Luc and Tristan
who are both aged 10.
Having
viewed our website, we hope that you will decide to have a holiday
at Dolphin Gites and that we may have the opportunity of meeting you at
one of our aperitif evenings.
