We are Sylvie Charlier and Peter van Doorn. We have been coming to France for years and have seen a lot in that beautiful country. We live in Rouperroux, about a 10-minute drive from Tanville. Peter is a beer brewer and has his own brewery (WitchDruid) specializing in English and Irish beer styles. Sylvie is an artist (painting and wool). She makes the most beautiful scarves and hats from the wool of our own sheep. Feel free to visit us in Rouperroux to have a look.
