How old is the house?
There were originally seven houses which comprised Le-Portail. Only three remain. Portico was one of them. We think it was built around 1750. It was bought as a derelict farmhouse in the early nineties, and was fully renovated and converted by 1995. It is totally secluded from the other houses and being the last of them, there is no passing traffic at all except occasional farm vehicles, horses and ramblers.
