Horizons Vendeens

This part of restoration ”creation and alterations for doors & windows” in the gites is stressful and eventful…Indeed, the stoneworkers have to work on walls, dating from 16° Century and most of all, which are weakened by time and seasons. Moreover, vegetation has clung on the walls.
What a superb work of patience, but also risky!
Main encountered difficulties: thickness of walls and stones snowballing

As this part takes more time than scheduled, we show you all the same the beginning of these works of extension and creation of doors/windows for this gite.

Developpment of each door or window -from ruin into gite 2- will be better summarized and understandable with photos:

The front door to gite with its superb stones:

French window in the living room -creation:

The large picture window on the gable end of the gite -extension:

Large window in the bedrooms -creation:

For this creation in the bedrooms of the gite 2, an explanation will be needed for those who have not come on the place of the gites yet.
This large window will open on one hand in one bedroom and on the other hand, also in the 2 bedroom; from outside, nothing can be clearly seen this subtlety. As a matter of fact, we are in the same case as the window from the gite 1.

Sorry for the photos taken inside, which are dark, but light should come soon!

Windows in th kitchen, toilets and bathroom -creation:

Shortly, should these same doors/windows of the gite 2 ended…
