Friday morning started with the Libourne market, a local hub that was a feast for the eyes and it was fascinating to compare it to the fresh produce we’re used to seeing in Australia.
While much of the fruit and vegetables were familiar, our attention was really caught by the huge, red tomatoes, seemingly so much bigger than we see at home. The prices, surprisingly were very similar. However, the star of the show was, once again, the bread! I know I go on about it, but the range was amazing with most of it we only encounter when we are overseas.
After soaking up the market’s atmosphere and enjoying a well deserved coffee, it was time for our next adventure: Maison Mulatô.
Approaching the house, the first impression was of a charming but unassuming facade. But stepping through the front door, the house revealed itself as a beautifully decorated guest house, a testament to the passion of its owners.
Every room reflected the couple’s love for their home. The attention to detail was incredible, from the elegant decor to the cozy, inviting atmosphere. The experience continued outside, from both an indoor and outdoor pool to the impeccably landscaped gardens.
It was amazing what this couple have achieved in four years, from office space and car park to a beautifully and thoughtfully decorated home.
