A village pub has taken on a bit of a continental feel -- after getting a French landlady.

Nathalie Charrie and Aaron Brown

Nathalie Charrie and Aaron Brown have taken over as managers of the Trigger Pond pub, in Bucknell, near Bicester, after former owners Rob and Claire Dunn emigrated to Canada.

The couple, both 27, first met six years ago when Miss Charrie, who comes from the South of France, moved to the UK to learn English. Miss Charrie, who looks after the restaurant side, said: "We are not planning any big changes and would like to keep it as a traditional English pub."
