Straw bale Home in Périgord Vert
Our home is a characterful eco (straw bale) house - we have done a large part of the construction ourselves. It has beautiful lime rendered walls and a relaxed ambiance with a beautiful garden surrounded by countryside views. It has a covered terrace with table and chairs for al fresco dining.
We have composting toliets and grey water is treated by a reed bed system.
We have a ginger neutered female cat that is fairly independent and comes and goes via a cat flap. She only needs some dry food and water put out in the kitchen. She is shy and so you may not get to see much of her!
