About the host
Hosted by Michael and Christine Clench
Mike and I retired from teaching at the end of 2002 and moved to the property at the beginning of 2003. As an art teacher and artist Mike was drawn to the proportions of this 19th century property. For Chris it was an opportunity to continue her love of the French language. In Bournemouth we had welcomed language students into our home for a number of years.We were just continuing the work here in Normandy.
Now 18 years plus later we have down-sized from the large 19th century house next to the Lodge and now live 5 minutes out of the village in a more conveniently sized property.
Chris still leads the local choir and I am now able to manage the DIY and the garden on a smaller scale. I will soon have a new studio up and running!
