Our Gîte is recently created from a modernised two-room stone cottage which was built into the main house, probably in the 1950’s. It is equipped with a fitted kitchen, lounge with UK Freesat / Orange France (WiFi) television, electric heating, new en suite shower and bathroom with heated towel rail. There is a bedroom upstairs with double bed plus linen and towels provided – all the amenities you need. Outside, there is a private informal garden which is free for you to explore. There is ample on-site parking, free basic wifi and we are available to help if you need. The television has a wifi connection which may enable you to watch French and other European TV Channels, depending on your subscriptions.
