The barn is set within the village of Saulchoy, in the Val d'Authie (Authie Valley, pronounce 'val dotee').

This is part of the area known as Sept Vallées (Seven Valleys) which, together with the coastline around Le Touquet, is by far the most attractive area within any reasonable driving distance of the Channel Ports.

Getting there

The barn is a 40 minute drive from the tunnel.

From Calais and the Tunnel take the A16 autoroute west along the coast, signposted first for Boulougne and then Le Touquet. Exit at Payage 25 and take RN 39 signposted for Arras. Take the first exit in the direction of Remy sous Bois. After entering the village turn right at the crossroad, signposted for Saulchoy.

On entering Saulchoy, pass the church and turn left at the main road in the centre of the village, signposted for Duriez. The barn is on the left 500 metres from the junction and has a sign outside.
