About this property

Family farmhouse sleeps up to 14 guests.

Les Chênes is a renovation masterpiece. The result of a 3 year long project designed to give holiday makers the ultimate comfort experience in self catering accommodation.
The original two room house, workshops, stable and barn have all been converted. Providing accommodation over two floors, built on the original U-shape foundations that date back a couple of hundred years. There are five bedrooms in total, one of which is located on the ground floor along with four bathrooms, numerous dining areas and a lounge with fantastic views over the French countryside. The “tree trunk” timber joists and beams have been kept and we’ve added the comforts of running water and electricity! Two large wood pellet burners throw out enough heat to keep everybody warm and all rooms are further equipped with electric radiators.
The kitchen areas include all of the comforts of home and like most of the fixtures and fittings it’s all brand new and excellent quality. The TV provides both UK and French channels television and radio alike.
There are enough beds for 14 people and rooms can be configured in a variety of ways depending on party size and make up. We’ve designed the rooms with families in mind, adults and children all get something they’ll be happy with. There is a large, private and enclosed lawn garden at the rear of the house. The front gravel courtyard provides on site parking for up to 5 cars. Please see the layout plans for more details.

Great property

Doing a trip to France with a number of friends every year... the property was really spacious, allowing some to have "fun" and loud laughter and others to be in another part of the property for a more quiet atmosphere... beds were comfy. Really recommend

Generally fine with lots of room and good facilities.Only downsides ,which will not bother some,are that the property is pretty remote and no shop ,bar etc without driving(it is not actually in Parenty itself.)Also the bedrooms in the roof have very low ceilings and two of the bathrooms but only one bedroom are downstairs with quite tricky stairs so not good for elderly/disabledHaving said that everything else was good ,Micheal was very helpful and we enjoyed our stay

Schönes Ferienhaus

Wir haben eine schöne Woche mit Freunden in dem Ferienhaus verbracht. Es gab viel Platz und einen großen Garten. Insbesondere die vielen Badezimmer möchten wir positiv hervorheben!Die Einrichtung war einfach, aber funktional. Die Küche könnte insgesamt etwas besser ausgestattet sein (Besteck knapp bemessen, wenig große Töpfe). Manche Betten waren etwas kurz. Die Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter verlief reibungslos. Wir können das Haus für eine unkomplizierte Gruppe empfehlen!

Ideaal voor een familieweekend.

Hartelijke ontvangst door Michael. Ruim huis. Goed uitgeruste keuken. Afgesloten tuin zodat de kinderen niet op straat kunnen (maar dan zou het poortje vooraan wel beter moeten sluiten). Groene omgeving, waarschijnlijk ideaal voor wandelaars maar voor activiteiten met kinderen moet je wel minstens een half uurtje rijden.

Een aanrader voor een familie met veel ravotters

Ondanks het zeer slechte weer hebben we met de hele familie enkele mooie dagen in dit verblijf doorgebracht. Door de indeling van de living - keuken - eetruimte kon elke leeftijdscategorie (en dat waren er veel: tussen 18 maanden en 69 jaar) ergens wel een beetje zijn ding doen. De keuken was voldoende uitgerust. We hadden enkel een beetje probleem op Wifi te geraken maar ook dat konden we uiteindelijk oplossen. Door het slechte weer zijn we jammer genoeg weinig naar buiten kunnen gaan. Toch bood Etaples enkele regenloze uren (micro-klimaat?) en konden we de wandeling in de duinen van de Mont-Saint Frieux doen (een aanrader!). Een andere niet te missen uitstap, waar jong en oud van genoot, was Nausicaa. Wij zouden er niet aan twijfelen om nog eens naar daar te trekken om enkele familiedagen mee te maken.

Le Cadre est très Agréable,adapté Pour des vacances ou une fête familiale

Il permet à chacun d’avoir un espace chaleureux, de repos et de convivialité. Il serait cependant bienvenu d’avoir un minimum d’ustensiles de cuisine( pilon pour mouliner la soupe, fouet, boule à thé rouleau à pâtisserie,etc.. de quoi faire des repas pour 15 personnes L’escalier n’ est pas suffisamment sécurisé pour des enfants ( 5ans)

About the host

Hosted by Michael Reid

Host profile image
Les Chênes is owned by an English family who spend most of their time in the North of England. The house and holiday rentals are managed by Michael Reid who lives in the neighbouring village of Tingry. Originally from Hertfordshire Michael has lived and worked in France since 1994. His company Pied à Terre specialises in second home and holiday home management and has been trading successfully since 2004.

Why they chose this property

The property had been vacant for a number of years before it was purchased. The vision was to create holiday style accommodation for large parties, families and friends wanting to spend time together in space and comfort.
It was important to restore the property as close as possible to the original design, to give life back to a traditional regional “fermette” but make it practical and maintenance free. All of the work was carried out by local French tradesmen and we are delighted with the result. The combination of ancient and modern works well and the house is huge with niche pockets of space all designed to ensure everyone feels comfortable and at home. The location is great. It’s a farm hamlet with a handful of houses. You feel you’re in the middle of nowhere, yet just a few minutes drive to “civilisation”. The region/local area is very much geared towards leisure activities & pursuits, but if you feeling like staying in then this home is very hard to beat!

What makes this property unique

The house and hamlet seem to represent real France and our love to escape to it. Plus the tourist strap line of real close is so true. Once you arrive, by ferry or tunnel…………..in under an hour you can be here, settled in and unpacked!
Once you’ve visited you’ll ask yourself “why go any further?” The views and countryside are awesome.
As far as comfort, accommodation and space goes you’ll not find a better holiday home for everyone to enjoy.
