Things have been very quiet on here for some time and, being
full of excuses, here’s why…
We’ve been busy saving, searching and working away at
building work, planning applications and setting up our new business in south west
France!
For the past 3 years we’ve been working away to get
ourselves a property and making some changes so we can host our new venture: Tours du Tarn.
As you will see, we’re predominantly focussing on
centre-based cycling holidays for people interested in exploring France at a
leisurely pace by bike. We provide breakfasts and hearty evening meals, bikes
and all the routes and equipment you need to enjoy a cycling holiday in the
Tarn in south west France. I’m really excited to show people a little known
area of France and showcase what the region has to offer. The roads are quiet
and well maintained and the scenery is reason enough to visit but if you do,
the wine here is really taking off and should not be overlooked!
We’re predominantly focussing on 2017 but we’re going to be
shipping out in June to live their for good and have some bookings to give us
some practice at dealing with guests and checking that the accommodation is fit
for purpose.
To say I’m excited is an understatement and getting started
on all of the work to be done before our first paying guests arrive is August
is going to a priority – although I keep insisting that we can’t run a cycling
business without doing lots of “research” by bike!
This is obviously a shameless plug for the website but its
also a bit of a promise that this blog will update more often as a hub for my
own personal thoughts on our new life in France, how the business progresses
and importantly - some actual cycling!
