How to make cider and other stories
The grege bedroom of la Clozette is opened by a pane overlooking the cellar: switch on the light, sit down in the rattan armchair and contemplate the barrels that hold calvados and cider…
Patrice follows the tradition and makes the apple juice, cider, calvados and pommeau for our familial use.
If you wish, he will friendly share his passion and a drink with you.
Feed the hens
The hens also have their lodging at Clos Delamare: covered with slate and well insulated with cotton wool like the Clozette and the Moussette, the chickenhouses a dozen poultry, which you can feed with your peelings and food waste, under the watchful eye of Francine. Children and adults alike will be delighted!
Relaxing in the orchard
The orchard - "the planted courtyard" as Albert used to say - is the keystone of the property. All the houses at Le Clos open onto this green heart, which Patrice lovingly tends with the help of Nono the robot. There are both stone and seed fruit trees: cider apples, pears, knives, plums, etc. In spring, the trees are in bloom, and later Laurence makes jellies and jams to make the family's breakfasts even better. And our guests' toddlers love to frolic in the grass when the sun comes out.
