Why they chose this property
Since 23 years it was our holiday house. It has been completely refurbished to be able to gather the whole family and their friends. Today the kids are adults and they live far away. To insure that the property is constantly maintained we have decided to rent it instead of leave it empty. The big families which come to spend their holidays are are delighted by the pool, the terrasses, the garden, the 46" LED TV and the Wifi.
