THE NEWCOMERS

We have been living permanently in the village for four years.

We moved from the frenetic south east of England and particularly appreciate the tranquility and pace of life.

As we drive round our beautiful countryside we frequently have to remind ourselves that we live here and are not on holiday.

Our house is 773 metres (2 536 feet) above sea level. We have four distinct seasons. The winters are cold with quite a lot of snow and the summers hot.
