Company information

We spent our working lives in global business travel, travelling extensively with the South of France always being a favourite destination. In 2009, whilst based in Hong Kong, we purchased our house in Bram and spent 2 years restoring the property to its original features and to a modern standard, converting it to a family home. Having taken early retirement we decided to share our home by offering Bed and Breakfast. Paul is an English and Petra a Swiss national, speaking English, German and French.
