LAROQUE - ON ARRIVAL

ARRIVAL AT 11-13, Rue de l’Eglise

Congratulations!

• Standing facing the house, there are 2 garages and on the right the front door.
• The key you have received fits the Yale lock on the left-hand garage door. Enter, turn right – the light switch is on the wall by the door into the second garage. There is also a torch on the shelf to your left as you enter.
• Pass through the second garage into the entry vestibule where you will find the front door key, and second garage key, hanging on the wall.
• PARKING. Use the left hand garage. Fold the small door on itself and slide the whole door to the right (from inside!). It is best to drive the car just beyond the house and reverse in – with help and not when you are tired!
• Remove valuables from car and lock car and garage. We tend to use this door in the L.H. garage all the time.
• The house is usually left fairly open – the shutters are only locked during prolonged absences – so you should not need to unbar and unlock the rear door s and shutters to the garden and loggia. The keys to the former are kept on the adjacent window ledge, the loggia's are on a hook in the adjacent smaller kitchen. Ann will usually have opened up the house before your arrival.
• There is an electric shutter in the main kitchen – the switches are below the adjacent cupboard. There is also a blind to protect the kitchen from the sun – and the occasional cat!
