Notes
- Although from the pictures of the outside it can look as though there are a number of properties on the site, everything you see is included in the rental price. There is a lot of space! Our prices include all heating costs (oil for the central heating and hot water and wood for the wood burning fire). There is a paved patio with garden furniture, lighting and a large purpose-built barbeque to the rear. The door is directly from the kitchen and there's also access from the garden. The patio and a flat stretch of lawn are fenced and secure and are safe for children to be left on their own, subject to your own risk-assessment though. The patio is shaded during the hottest parts of the day, therefore cooler in summer but gets the sun in the mornings and evenings. To the south-facing front of the house there is a solid pub garden style wooden picnic table with bench seating for 6 and further garden benches. Sun-loungers, other garden chairs and parasols are in the barn. There's a huge courtyard and lots of covered barns for parking or to use as a "party barn if it rains. There is a large private garden (mainly grass) and nearby private and secluded meadows you may use (ours). We provide a range of garden games for use in the garden, courtyard or barn. The utility room has a washing machine, tumble dryer, ironing board, iron and drying frame. The machines are housed under a kitchen worktop and there is plenty storage space. High quality bed linen and towels are provided. Bed linen is professionally laundered and changed weekly. The property will be clean upon your arrival and should be left in a clean condition upon departure. The large mezzanine has a second dining table/chairs and a day bed come sofa. There is a gate at the top of the stairs.

We retired early from high-pressure jobs to live in this beautiful part of France. It was the best decision we have ever made.

We came to live here by accident! We'll tell you the (long) story over a glass of wine, if you like.
