Brigitte and Martin Kesselring are tied by a very long love story to this corner of the country, which is not Provence yet, but has all the same softness.

A holiday story that actually started in Ardèche for this teaching couple originally from Berne in Switzerland. An increasingly regular rendezvous that made parting more difficult each time. Then there was the shock of the Drôme. A mild shock but nonetheless impossible to overcome. The breathtaking scenery, moulded by the wind and rivers, the lavender and its heady perfume and vines on espaliers. And so this holiday romance turned into a life story.

In 1995, it was love at first sight for a traditional but at the same time completely dilapidated drômoise farm. The Kesselrings bought it before mobilizing family and friends to renovate and transform it. Today the house has regained its charm. The Kesselrings finally settled there two years ago and accommodate not only those who helped them but also all visitors who are interested in sharing this beautiful story and discovering their little corner of paradise.
