LA CREUZETTE
Part 2
Art & cookery classes in France
Some of you may have read my first post on La Creuzette - if not see here
When I wrote the first post, I used my own photos which were taken a couple of years ago. So much has changed at La Creuzette, and when in France a few weeks ago, Louis invited me over to "re-fresh" my photos. Luckily for me, a group was arriving the following day which meant that the Chateau was looking tip-top! For those who have not linked back to my original post, La Creuzette is a beautiful Chateau, owned by Louis and Hardy. La Creuzette offers residential art and cooking courses as well as many other activities. Please have a look at their website here
It was a rainy day so photographs of the garden were difficult. I hope you enjoy the new photos below ... but be warned - there are many and you might be kept busy for a while!

View of the garden from the kitchen |

| Beautiful staircase leading up to the bedrooms |
 |
| Piles and piles of magnificent antique French linen |
 |
| Then down the stairs and outside- a short walk to the Summer kitchen which has been updated |
 |
| Hardy's pride and joy - the industrial cooking station - wonderful for the cooking classes |
 |
| The living/dining area off the summer kitchen where students relax between classes and eat more informally. There is also a Bistro area in the kitchen |
 |
| Very stylish yet more informal setting |
 |
| Part of the garden alongside the Summer kitchen |

| There is a small shop to tempt one! |
La Creuzette - an experience never to be forgotten!
So beautiful - I love their eclectic mix of furniture and objet - the mixed cutlery, candlesticks and silver is a particularly good idea. And love the fornasetti plates on the wall in the classically styled room. Also love the hall tiled floor. I could go on.... lovely photos Jenny, what a beautiful setting they've created. xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Heidi... You are very observant.. I adore the tiles in the hall and the painting newly placed there looks wonderful. Their candlesticks display is a lovely idea.. the atmosphere of the old house is lovely..
DeleteGee whiz, look at you and your new camera! Some of those pics are pro!! Really lovely that I flicked thru them again. The place looks almost better in this post with all the details of the house. I would love a cooker like that, don't know why bc lately I have been cooking once a week...must bookmark the place now! Xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Naomi... actually was still my old camera... :( .. I still miss it so much!! ...If you are moving then I'm surprised you are cooking at all. Good luck with it all xx
