Well at last the sun has come out and our guests are enjoying their trips to the South of France. I had a lovely email form Mark who stayed for Midem in January, which which I have included below - it makes my day to get lovely emails from happy guests. Our MIPIM guests have just left so I hope they will have had an equally good time during their trip. Our current guest who has stayed with us before will hopefully be enjoying some early spring sunshine on the Cote D'Azur.
I am certainly looking forward to getting over there for a week to get a few little jobs done and make sure the apartments are ready for the busy summer ahead. I will also be there to finalise the fence saga ... 18 months to get permission to swap a wooden fence for a wrought iron one! Oh my goodness the cogs grind slowly sometimes but it will be worthwhile and will look really smart when it is all installed and finished.
My French is coming along slowly (very slowly) but I am really enjoying it and looking forward to practicing my new (if limited) vocabulary in a few weeks time. Thankfully it won't all be hard work as my sister and a couple of friends are flying out for the weekend to keep me company and share a few bottles of the local wine!
All the conferences are booked up now until the boat show in September and I have been really busy taking summer bookings - we only have a few weeks left in June, July and August so get in touch soon if you are interested. Speaking of which I have paperwork to do and guests to email so I will leave it there for now.
Enjoy the sunshine in England this weekend whilst we have some!

Hi Kerry,
Just back in NI this afternoon, what can I say, your apartment was perfect! I would be really keen on doing future rentals with you for other events, I have been singing its praises to a friend of mine in New Mexico (we do the same type of job) and he is also keen on maybe using it as well.
The flowers and Moet were perfect (thanks again for helping me with that) just perfect.
The meeting and greeting was spot on, could not have worked out better
The apartment was spotless, what can I say 100%
Bed made, 100% comfy (did crack my head first morning, my fault)
Well equipped for our needs , slight internet problem which you helped sort out (this was our only slight problem)
Knowing Cannes pretty well for the past 15 years was a real advantage as I knew exactly where I was, and for the first time ever I felt like a local and loved it. The apartment was PERFECT for the needs of my stay, close the watering holes and restaurants and very pleasant 10 min walk from the Palais (how could the walk past he marina not put you in a good mood every morning?)I have raved about it to my friends and co workers am torn between wanting to share it and to keep it a close secret for my use!.
Thank you once again, I look forward to my next stay
Kind regards Mark
