Le Chevrefeille (Honeysuckle) is the slightly smaller of two gites within a longere that was once part of a farm complex. The thick stone walls make it a cool place in summer and a cozy retreat in winter.

The living area - has 2 two seater sofas, a wood burning stove, coffee tables, lamp, rug, TV for DVDs only with DVD player and a CD player. The table seats 4. The log fire makes cooler evenings a cosy and relaxing experience.
The kitchen - fully equipped with washing machine, electric cooker with oven, microwave, toaster, electric kettle and all necessary pots, pans, crockery, cutlery and utensils.
Master bedroom - upstairs, light and airy , on a mezzanine, with a vaulted ceiling and ancient oak beams, bedside tables with lamps, set of drawers, cheval mirror and clothes hanging area.
An en-suite shower room with WC and basin completes the picture.
The twin bedroom - down a couple of small steps off the living room.
It has a clothes hanging space, chest of drawers with bedside lamps and has an en-suite shower room, WC and wash basin.
Outside - the gites are set in a large garden with plenty of space for sunbathing and this year half our field is now grassed over for guest use as a recreational area.
Outside each gite there is a paved patio separated by trellis fencing for privacy with a BBQ and a wooden picnic table with parasol.
As the property is not totally enclosed, young children would need to be supervised.
The gites benefit from a large library of DVDs, books and indoor games for less clement weather as well as outdoor games; we have now added table tennis and a boules pitch for your entertainment as well as other bat/ball equipment. These are all available for guests free of charge.
2 all terrain bikes are available for hire at a reasonable daily or weekly rate, as well as 2 ladies shoppers free for popping into town to get those fresh morning croissants.
We also provide bedding, linen, tea towels, towels if requested and a large array of cleaning products, loo & kitchen rolls, bin bags, laundry detergent & softener, condiments - in fact all the things you don't want to buy a stock of just for a holiday.

We try to go the extra kilometre so that you won't have to.
