A living family enterpriseUne entreprise familiale vivante

From its creation Canon has remained in the same family…In order to respond effectively to what is needed to manage the estate, the family formed in 1999 a civil property association. This is a very original form of management in which all family members participate, each pledging a minimum of 150 hours’ work  per annum. Raking, pruning, book keeping, publicity, reception on Sundays or for special events…there are many challenges to be tackled! Even the young have an input, as the ‘candle team’, whose efficient contribution ensures the night time events are illuminated – link to events. It is obvious to visitors that it is the warm welcome they receive from a family run concern which distinguishes Canon from the other tourist sites.
