Space for the car ...

The cave below the house. Every house in the village has a cave of similar size - yet most people park on the street. Since this photo was taken the cave has become filled with firewood, kayak, four bikes, outdoor furniture, gardening equipment etc etc. There is also a manger where the horses used for the vineyards were fed, and towards the back a wine vat that could hold 1400lt of wine. A stairway runs up the back to the house, but we will be adding a new, better, staircase to go right up to the grenier (attic). Amazing how quickly we've filled this space. It doesn't seem big enough at all now.
