Hello and thank you for coming over. Before wishing you a fabulous Christmas, I’ve got some exciting things to tell you first:
Thing 1
We’re closing until the 18th March 2013 to do some renovations and decorating, so if you’re interested in watching us transform the little building on the other side of the courtyard into two fabulous bedrooms, then I suggest you subscribe to the Blog by clicking on the little orange/white button at the top right of this page. I’ll be posting regularly on our progress, and by subscribing you’ll get an email every time I do that.
Thing 2
We’re going to be managing our neighbour’s house next year. It is for sale and they have moved out, but in the meantime, until they find a buyer, we are going to be offering it to you as a Gite, which means that if you want to come to Champagne for an extended length of time and prefer to do your own thing, then you’ll be able to book the gite when I put the details on the site after Christmas. The house has 4 lovely bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, lounge, dining area and kitchen plus a lovely sunny courtyard and pool! It’s perfect for (adult) families or groups. Again, if you subscribe to this blog, you’ll know first when it’s ready to go.
Thing 3
As you know we offer meals here at Les Molyneux, which I cook myself. Next year, we’re going to be using the services of our local French chef, Christophe Ponsart, who has worked in a Michelin star restaurant in Epernay, and now runs his own business. He will be preparing delicious gourmet meals for you., so you’re in for a treat there!
Thing 4
We’re going to have to raise our prices next year, due to increases in energy, but for you as part of our community, we’re holding the price increase until the 5th January, so if a trip to Champagne is on the cards for you in 2013, then please do book before the prices goes up on the 5th January. You’ll probably be planning your trips for next year over Christmas with your friends and family, so now is a good time to take advantage of 2012 prices.
Thing 5
Finally, we have had a spectacularly successful year this year, thanks to you. Yes, you. Choosing to stay with us, giving us feedback, writing reviews on Trip Advisor has made our year, and we couldn’t have done it without you. I want to thank you sincerely, from the bottom of my heart. We raise a glass to you and wish you a fabulously
Merry Christmas
and peace, happiness and prosperity to you and your loved ones in 2013 and beyond.
Looking forward to welcoming you again to Champagne in 2013.
Yvonne and Jiles xx
Valuable information. Fortunate me I found your web site unintentionally, and I
am stunned why this accident didn’t came about earlier! I bookmarked it.
Hi Jen and thanks for commenting. I appreciate you taking the time to do that. Happy New Year to you too and looking forward to welcoming you to Les Molyneux sometime soon. Let me know how I can help you. Warmly, Yvonne 🙂
Hi Yvonne and Jiles,
I love your video! What a great idea… you are so cheerful and welcoming.
I came across your website while doing some B&B searches. I’ve never been to France, but I would love to visit and hoping to stay at your place, soon.
Happy New Year to you, and let’s hope we can meet.
Cheers,
