It’s been a hectic month. We have finished the Tea Lounge, painted the atelier and tea lounge entrance and the gallery house too.  With our prominent position near the N145 at Gouzon, we get a huge flow of traffic throughout the day and we wanted our establishment to be noticed.

Today people slowed down, tooted their horns or waved. There is slot of anticipation about having a tea lounge that will be open all day, every day. Normally in France lunch is midday till 2pm and that’s it….closed. often only open on certain days and Monday everything is shut.

We wanted to be different. We are creating outdoor and indoor areas to relax and stay as long as you want. Next year we are adding a mezzanine for customers to use for meetings or workshops, and outside a beer garden under cover.

We open on 11th June at 2pm and there will be wine,cheese, sandwiches, tea and coffee. It’s a new venture for us, but we wanted to create a unique space that was welcoming every day.  We have plenty of parking and great views across the meadows and there will still be workshops and art meetups and events. Gouzon has got creative!
