A new disney take on a charentaise single storey with every bolt-on imaginable showhouse emerging where previously there was only hay . . . Is this a good thing I ask myself?   On the plus side if you have a village shop and school the new housing will hopefully provide customers and pupils to keep the village and facilities alive.    On the minus side it is a shame that these little boxes have to be tacked on to olde worlde style typical French villages.   Cendrillon    Report
