Hi John,
I just wanted to say a big thank you to you for having such a brilliant
website and also for putting my church at the top of your list; thank you.
The very day that you put it on, it was seen by the Scottish Sunday express, who phoned me up for an interview the very next day! As requested, I sent them my photographs and further information.  That Sunday, there was a half page editorial about converted churches in Scotland, there was a brilliant section on my church and the only three pictures they'd printed were of my church as well.  If that wasn't enough, BBC Birmingham phoned me up and are going to use my photos and info in a slot in one of their programmes in about three months, called 'To Buy or Not to Buy'! Thanks again John.
Wendy.

we have our property for sale on your website.
Channel 4 have seen it there and have come to visit us. They will film our house next week for the programme: A Place by the sea.
Wow that was unexpected! Would it be worthwhile to mention this on the website somewhere?
Monica

Today a French TV company was filming us for a programme on unusual houses in the UK... they were telling us about other converted churches they found on your site.
Angela

For your interest we have been featured on SW television. Local papers and the Daily Telegraph as a result of being on your site and have had over 100 enquiries.
Simon Mole

I just wanted to say that your site is one of the best user friendly I have come across, thank you and keep up the good work
Gwyneth Calvert-painter

I'm really impressed with the number of people contacting me who've seen our property on your website. Thank you for this service! I've taken a look
myself and you've done a great job with the listing.
Jean-Claude Freyche

Thank you for your update but, please, would you remove subject property from your website.  We are getting more and more calls from magazines, TV programmes and people who are disappointed to find that house was sold in April.
Janet Hoper

Just to let you know, that after a race of 3 people after our house, someone successfully bought it! So if you could take us off your website I would be grateful.
Thank you for your hard work.

€103,500


Renovated detached railway cottage; pretty views from almost every window; peaceful rural setting. Originally a gate keepers cottage, this 2 bedroom home has been completly remodelled, rewired, double glazing, the works. Set in a charming rural location yet only 2km from the nearest market town of Chasseneuil, 12km from La Rochefoucauld, and 45 mins from Limoges airport,

Open plan kitchen and sitting room. Upstairs full bathroom, two bedrooms.

For the train enthusiast there are two trains per day that pass the property. Unfortunately the line maybe closed soon due to cutbacks. The garden is small, but there is additional land across the road for a vegetable patch plus an old outbuilding.

It's a very low maintenance property. You get the peaceful relaxed atmosphere of country life and the comfortable amenities of living close to town. Chasseneuil has very nice shops, supermaket, Dr. and dentists. The Chateau town of La Rochefoucauld is very pretty again with very nice shops and restaurants.
