Fires burning brightly at our chambres d'hotes near angouleme in the charente

I love winter here.

With macrons crazy fuel prices we are using the wood burners full steam ahead - they give a great heat and if we run them all day the house stays nice and toasty.

The huge 14KW burner in the grand salon takes 70cm logs so that gives out enormous heat which seeps thru upstairs into the bedrooms for snug nights.

Luckily we have loads of wood nicely dry and ready to go - chestnuts roasted n the open fire too
