We got to stay at a 'refinished' horse farm on the earlier leg of our recent tour. The hotel was in Normandy. The rooms were extremely comfortable but you could tell they were 'reclaimed' from what was originally stables in the olden days. The walls were almost three-feet thick. The walls in the rooms were plastered and finished about eight feet up (the rooms all had second stories) with the orignal stone work showing from that point up to the ceiling. Great, private bathroom, comfortable beds, quiet . . . and with this wonderful picture on the wall! I'm assuming it was either an original or a good copy of an original but we found it . . . interesting! My son enjoyed trying to match up the French words to the parts of the cow to which they applied.
