Information

Having lived and worked in France for many years, we feel able to ensure that you have all the ingredients for a wonderful stay. Whether you're looking for an action packed holiday or more relaxing break, you can rest assured we know all the 'best places' to go!

House hunters are more than welcome to 'pick our brains' over a glass or two of vin rouge. We can advise on the buying process, all aspects of renovation and relocating to France.

Our Facilities

Luxury Swimming Pool
The luxury ‘in ground’ swimming pool is situated in the walled garden to the rear of the property. The pool is for the communal use of all three cottages. There are steps spanning the entire width to facilitate easy entry and exit. They also provide the ideal perch for young (and not so young!) to sit in shallow water and relax. Surrounded by a sun terrace and lawns the pool garden is a lovely place to relax and enjoy a slower pace of life. The garden is not overlooked and has views over fields of sunflowers in summer. Sun loungers and pool toys are provided. Toddlers have their own inflatable pool.  When you tire of the sun shady spots can be found under the walnut tree and vine covered pergola.
