A European with strong French roots, I was born and brought up in Kenya, have lived in Austria and for the last 30 years in London. I set up my internationally based business, The Daylight Company, in 1990 and now aim to spend much of my time in France. As I've always regarded France as home, it felt natural for me to find a house here. I fell in love with the Chateau when I first saw it. It evoked childhood memories of rambling family houses and lazy childhood summers. Magnificent views of the Pyrenees coupled with the warmth of the local population make this an idyllic place to relax. I've spent 5 years restoring the Chateau to a family home with every modern amenity, yet reviving its unique historical character.
