Anyone interested in becoming the new owner of Courbefy has just 8 days to make up their mind, after which it will remain the property of the Crédit Agricole bank.

The Mediterranean in February

One of the great things about being in the Pyrenees Orientales during the winter is that, yes we do have cold weather and yes it does snow occasionally but then out of the blue you get a few days of blissful sunshine and temperatures of over 20 degrees. If you live near the Mediterranean then where else to go but the beach, though I would council against swimming!

Lovely lunch and walk on the beach,
Thanks Nick and Chris
