A traditional stone French country house, refurbished several years ago and retaining many original features.
Gated with large driveway for many cars, just under an acre of land with large gardens and stone built outbuildings.
The house comprises of 5 bedrooms upstairs - 3 large doubles, 1 small double, 1 with 2 single beds and 2 pull-out beds if needed upstairs.
There is also a large bathroom and large walk-in shower.
Downstairs comprises of a large lounge with TV and a traditional fireplace / log burner. A large children's playroom includes 2 single sofa beds, as well as lots of toys and games. Next is a large French country kitchen fully equipped including large side by side fridge freezer with water and ice, Oven, Hob, Microwave Grill as well as full size Dishwasher for your convenience while away. This room includes a large dining table for 8+.
There are a further 2 single sofa beds downstairs in the 'play-room' if required so the house can sleep 10 comfortably and 12-14 max.
There is also a large conservatory area through the kitchen (it is only used to store large outdoor furniture)
There is a downstairs bathroom (shower & bath) through the play-room, a separate toilet and laundry/utility area too.
Outside we have a brick built BBQ and gated secluded large private garden with plenty of space overlooking open fields. We have outside table furniture for 8 and a large parasol for shade. (stored in the conservatory)
I'm sure we are missing out lots of detail but hope the photos do it some justice.
It is a very large house so plenty of space but as a traditional French country house it is also not perfect so please look at the photos to know what to expect.

I would not recommend this house, the pictures are sugarcoated.
Bedrooms are okay, everything else was either dirty or demaged/ broken.
The first couple of days it smelled moldy and musty.
I can’t list all the shortcomings( first day no warm water, one day no electricity, the last 5 days no WiFi ( probably still not working)
The area is nice, so is the garden, but even the parasol is broken.

manque de propreté
belle maison sauf que l'hygiène laisse ç désirer nous avons dû nétoyer le filtre du lave vaisselle céréales et haricots verts en décomposition, le siphon de la douche à vomir. Dans l'annonce indica
Lovely gite, very large with a number of bedrooms arrived very late at night so the welcome pack of food and drink was a nice touch. Bedrooms comfy and issue with heating was resolved the very next day, called straight away by property owner. The living room fire was well used and logs provided. The location is really good and we felt very at home there. We would stay again.
groot en goed voorzien, alles wat wij nodig hadden was aanwezig. Omgeving is erg rustig maar toch zijn er voldoende
attracties op korte rijafstand. Wij hebben er een erg prettige week doorgebracht.
La maison est spacieuse et au calme. Les enfants peuvent jouer dans le grand jardin ou dans une salle de jeu bien équipé.
On mange facilement à 10. La cuisine est suffisante pour cuisiner avec, en plus, le barbecue extérieur.
Le gérant n'est pas sur place, mais il est très réactif aux questions posées. A notre arrivée, les lits étaient faits selon notre demande. Des serviettes de toilette à notre disposition. Quelques denrées alimentaires permettraient d'éviter de devoir se précipiter faire les courses.
Petit bémol : les équipements pour faire le ménage ne sont pas adaptés. Il manque un vrai aspirateur et un balai neuf.
