WELCOME



WELCOME TO "KIWI-CHATEAU"

We're Geoff McIntosh and Annette Dow



As our Domain Name suggests, we're a couple of Kiwis living in France.

Prior to 2012 we also lived in New Zealand and in the States and in England!
Life got confusing!

We still retain "presenses" in New Zealand and the UK but France is where we call home.


This web site dates back to 2008, but Content Management issues have required that it be recreated from scratch by the end of 2023, so apologies in advance for any glitches (as-of November 2023)!


Anyone interested in staying in our gite should do so through Air-B&B, or can e-Mail us directly in the first instance via Annette at ADow@BinaryResource.com (see MAIL icon, below).


About the "Chateau"


Actually, it's not a chateau at all! But it is une grande maison, so please forgive us our pretension!

It's OLD, too! Just how old we have no idea, but it's possible that there was the germ of a building on-site during the Battle of Agincourt, which was 600+ years ago (25 October 1415 ~ Saint Crispin's Day) !

Also, it's not a single, stand-alone house but two (on two seperate titles):
One large and one small.
And it includes a "block" of six stables (sans horses!).

We've taken over three of the "main house" bedrooms for "home office" purposes, so all visitors are relegated to "the gite", which comfortably sleeps five and has its own kitchen, two bathrooms / toilets, etc.
