It combines the character of the old with the practicality of the new. Tastefully decorat...ed to a high standard throughout it has a fully equipped modern kitchen, shower room and heating but retains the charm of original oak beams, a Tuffaut stone fireplace (now with a cast-iron wood-burning stove) and exposed stone walls.
We welcome children. As their security and comfort are a priority the shower room has non-slip floor tiles and a thermostatically controlled shower while the the kitchen has an induction hot-plate with security lock. A cot, high chair and stair gate can be supplied on request.
It has an enclosed private garden area with oak dining table, chairs and a barbeque.
The pool, with security cover conforming to European norms, has comfortable hardwood loungers while the adjoining garden area - which contains a shaded sand-pit for our youngest visitors - may be used for games of badminton or boules.
Free Internet access access by Wi-Fi is available for all our guests.
Our prices are inclusive of all linen, cleaning and heating – including oak logs in the cooler months - and to leave you more time to enjoy your holiday all paper and food wrapping products, basic cleaning, washing machine and dishwasher products and an initial supply of everything for the barbeque (except food!) are supplied as standard. On arrival you will find your Welcome Pack and the means of making a much needed cup of tea or real coffee!
