The photos that are contained in this post about Opening Space Retreat are focussed on our Maison de Rêves (House of Dreams), the little dépendance or guest house where are visitors stay. It is away from La Grande Maison or Big House so a private and peaceful time is assured.
There is a deliciously comfortable bed in the Maison de Rêves, more than big enough for a single person or even a couple. Our guests have often told us that it is comforting to be in bed in the Little House even in the middle of a storm. They say it takes them back to their childhood when the weather is so exciting when one is not outside in it.
The Maison de Rêves has electricity which means our guests can be warm in the Wintertime, make drinks at whatever time they choose and have light in the midst of absolute blackness (we have no street lights, so the time to get light is when we have a clear night when the galaxy is abundantly visible)
A beautiful old French clock sits on one old style distressed bedside cabinet. We found this in a friend's dépendance and she let us have it to add to the ambience of the Maison de Rêves.
The other bedside table plays host to a print of two loving comrades, marching along and smiling to one another and also to a 1930's jug and bowl set.
This beautiful room is within a small wooden house in the garden of the Opening Space Retreat. Here the Big House can be seen in the distance, and has the advantage in the Summer of opening out directly onto its own terrace, with loungers. Below can be seen the setting for this beautiful and restful place.
La Maison de Rêves it is one of the places that I to be there..
