Ask a questionAbout Sarah Burgess
We have owned the property since 2006 and have put a lot of time and care into renovating it to make a lovely family home and business. We hope that you will love the house and area as much as we do. We would love to share our knowledge of the surrounding area with you and hope to be able to make your stay something memorable.
Why Sarah Burgess chose Hounoux
When we first moved into the property we couldn't believe how peaceful it was, having come from a busy city it was amazing to be able sit outside with a glass of wine surrounded by practical silence - only interrupted occasionally by some birdsong! We feel that Domaine de la Barre gives you the best of both worlds, it offers peace and tranquillity whilst being within easy reach of so many interesting and lovely sites.
What makes this Cottage unique
The country side surrounding the property is beautiful, with vines and sunflowers surrounding us, all our guests feel completely relaxed here. Spend the day exploring then come back here and relax by the pool or read a book on your terrace whilst watching the sun go down. Domaine de la barre gives you the perfect opportunity to relax and unwind and enjoy the beautiful French countryside.
