About the Owner/Advertiser, Mrs Paulette Appleby

We moved to France in 2003 and have spent 7 years renovating our property. Simon was a manager with Reed in London and Paulette was a director of QS plc, near Brighton. We decided to leave the UK, our very hectic lifestyles, to try and spend as much time as we could with our 2 children who were 6 and 4 when we moved; while they still wanted to spend time with us! We have less money but are free to do what we want when we want. We don't regret a single day here and we appreciate how lucky we are.

Year property purchased 2003
Why this location? We love Madiran - it is a small pretty village, in between the mountains and the coast. The house is right in the middle of the vines. There's loads of space and its very quite and peaceful. The heated pools look towards the mountains - you can swim while looking at the snow. We spent 3 years trying to find a property in France - and looked at hundreds of places - but bought Le Prielle as we fell in love with it at first sight, meaning our original budget had to be "tinkered with!" Although it's remote, we still have a very active social life with Fetes, tennis club, SAMBO, tournaments, art classes and rugby at weekends. We have integrated well into the French life, making friends easily with other parents, as we all speak French, although the kids are much better than us!
Unique benefits of property Peace, calm and space. A real rural retreat providing time and space to enjoy your family, with mod-cons when you need them.
The home and gardens are immense, with so much space for everyone.
The evening silence, sitting sipping wine as the sun sets and the stars appear is always a joy. The unspoilt night sky enables fabulous views of the Milky Way and is constant wonder. We like to come back from an evening out, uncork a red and just lie on the grass gazing at the stars, its quite unbelievable and something we could never have seen in Sussex and something you never tire of looking at!
We have found the time to do those things we really want to do, but seldom have time to do.
It's a special place that brings you back on touch with nature, family and what's really important in life.
A very beautiful part of rural France.
