Celeb home tour: Rent Julia Child's charming French country cottage

La Pitchoune

Built in 1963, La Pitchoune ("The Little One") was once the former home of Paul and Julia Child.

Living and dining room

Julia's living and dining area is full of character from the brightly coloured furniture to the exposed beams and grand fireplace.

Perfect for entertaining

Drink, eat and be merry in the home that once hosted (what we're sure were) some of the most wonderful dinner parties.

Julia's kitchen

Except for the stove, the kitchen remains exactly as Julia left it. Modeled after the kitchen in her Cambridge, Massachusetts home a replica can also be found at the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C.

The kitchen pegboard

The original outlines Paul drew for Julia can still be seen on the kitchen pegboard. Imagine cooking dinner using some of Julia's original utensils (which are also still in the kitchen).
