To enjoy our gite you must enjoy 'peace and quiet', dogs ( we have 3 friendly ones) chickens, and wildlife in general. It is not unusual here to see deer, wild boar, foxes, hare, and many varieties of birds and birds of prey - not to mention the flora. Please note that for the comfort of all who come here, smoking is not allowed inside the gite.

The English owners, who live in the main house , are here to help make your stay as perfect as possible and unobtrusively maintain and care for the gardens, and to offer information and assistance to ensure that you have a wonderful holiday in this delightful secluded spot. Your privacy will of course be respected at all times and you will have the 'run' of virtually all the property.
