Alison is a master baker, chef and organiser. She is the family boss (after her grandson, of course) and is the person who keeps us all on track. She is in charge of our rental properties and is the person who will always have the answer to your questions. In her words, she's "the best"!

Phil is a DIY extraordinaire. He manages to bring all Alison's ideas to life and his favourite places are the DIY stores and his atelier (oh, and the wineries on his days off!) He also enjoys motor racing, especially the  Le Mans 24 heures!

Katy helps her mam with ideas and designs in their own gites. She enjoys spending time in the garden, or with a paintbrush in hand, or running around after her son (swiftly followed by a refreshing glass of Saumur rose!)

Ross is Katy's husband and runs a Structural Engineering company with her in France and the UK. He enjoys the peace and quiet of living in the countryside, and relaxing on the weekend with a good bottle of Cremant de Loire! 

Katy and Ross' son, and the cats also love living at La Girarderie and being outdoors as much as possible! You'll often find them all playing the in the garden, and the cats like to hide in the trees watching the birds.

As well as running La Girarderie Loire Gites, Alison and Phil run a successful local property management franchise with Les Bons Voisins.
Katy is a property consultant with Leggett Immobilier.

Ross is the director and structural engineer at Dobson Structures.
