Hi all, This is my first post! We have just purchased a place in Les Landes which has several outbuildings, some of which are of a considerable size. We want to convert the largest into a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom gite so we have somewhere to stay whilst doing renovations to the main house. I understand about visiting the Marie and getting a permis de construire but I just wanted to get your opinions on what might be possible. There are 2 options: (1)Renovate the workshop, renewing timbers where needed (2)Demolition of exisiting workshop and re-build. The second option would be the ideal option. Do you think it might be possible to do this? Thanks in advance for your help. Salut Rez
