Chateau Dior

Not much information about this magnificent residence. Beside location it just said "download pdf.". Well I did as I was told and downloaded pdf. but found no information there. Ah well, as it's a chateau, let's place it somewhere in the south of France, let's say in Provence, why not?

This Chateau Dior is a dream. Its beautiful gardens, the ivy creeping on the stone walls, the pool with coloured fish. It even has a detached chapel. As much as I love the outside and the building itself, and all the antique furniture, I am not so keen on the decor. Especially the bathroom and bedrooms. Well dears, just see for yourselves and let me know what you think.

Aix en Provence Residence

Good morning to all of you dear readers. Monday takes us to this magnificent 18th century “Bastide” in Aix en Provence, in the region of Provence-Alpes- Cote d'Azure, France. It has twenty-five acres of private parklands with olive groves and cypresses, complete with a care-taker’s lodge and numerous additional outbuildings. Situated in a beautiful and quiet countryside location and only three hours from Paris.

I must say the house itself is breathtaking, I love these solid old houses with their splendid gardens but I don't care much for the decor. Wouldn't you change the furniture in the living room and dining room? Let me know what you think.
