Flamingoes in the Camargue
Our home is in the Herault valley, the heart of Languedoc and Real South of France – from the flamingoes of the Camargue to the ski slopes of the Pyrenees – close to our home we can offer you everything for a perfect vacation.
We had a wonderful surprise last month – some guests staying with us sent two beautiful flamingo models in a huge parcel from America – it was a beautiful thought – Carole has the flamingo as her avatar as, near to us, in the Camargue is one of the very few breeding grounds around the Mediterranean.
Here are our own flamingos in their private “nest” in our living room

Manfred Mann - Pretty Flamingo lyrics On our block all of the guys call her flamingo Cause her hair glows like the sun And her eyes can light the sky When she moves she walks so fine like a flamingo Crimson dress that clings so tight She's out of reach and out of sight Lyrics | Manfred Mann lyrics - Pretty Flamingo lyrics
Most Wednesdays we are hosts to a group who learn about French history from a local professor. This is a three hour course, given in French by Alain Curta.
I am usually hidden away in the office on my computer or mixing concrete somewhere around the house – Carole seems to be having great fun as I hear peals of raucous laughter from the living room.
I assume they are learning about French history.
