Notes
- Our previous guests have enjoyed 3 family holidays with plenty of space for dining and relaxing. The property is great for families holidaying together, family reunions or when the Grandparents want to join you. Some of the facilities are on the ground floor (see floor plan in photos) so its ideal for the older members of the family who find stairs a challenge. There is also a wet room style shower on the ground floor.

Ask a questionAbout Anita Hay
We bought the house in 2007 as our family home and have spent several years restoring many of the original features. Our family have now grown up and left home so we want to give other people the opportunity to stay in our beautiful home and enjoy a relaxing holiday in the quiet French countryside. We live in a small dwelling on the property, so we’re on hand should you need assistance during your stay and welcome families (although young children will need constant supervision in the garden and pool area). We have a small family dog so prior arrangement would be needed if you wanted to bring along any pets.

Why Anita Hay chose Sainte-Souline
La Longere a Broue has been our family home for the last 13 years. Now our children have left it has given us the opportunity to allow others to enjoy family holidays in this lovely place. We live in the adjoining property with our small dog. I enjoy upholstery and soft furnishing along with many other crafts.
What makes this House unique
The property benefits from large reception rooms that remain cool in the long hot summers. The third reception room is a great space for the children with books, games and dvd’s. The kitchen is equipped with granite worktops, high quality appliances and plenty of room for cooking with a large dining table for all our guests. French doors lead to the patio for barbeques and outdoor dining. English TV is available in the lounge, and there is wifi throughout the house.
